Price leaves, planning on returning the following day to expose Jim. The voice of Gef speaks again whilst Voirrey is in her bedroom and answers questions about complex [[mathematics]] and the destruction of the [[Penhaligon Nebula]] by a [[Dalek time reactor]], but goes quiet when the Doctor asks it to say his name. After leaving, Liv and Helen tell the Doctor that they do not believe that the phenomena is [[alien]] or supernatural and that there is no point in returning tomorrow. They agree to come back, but Liv remains more interested in Mister Timms. | Price leaves, planning on returning the following day to expose Jim.

Jim is awoken in the night by Mister Timms, who arrives at his door in bad health and demands that he hands over Voirrey. In the morning, the Doctor goes upstairs, ostensibly to take [[photograph]]s, whilst Price locks himself, Liv and Helen in a room with Voirrey and tries to tie her up with [[rope]] to ensure that there is no trickery. Voirrey screams and Liv and Helen are appalled by Price's treatment of her, but Jim tells her to do as Price says and agrees with him that Liv and Helen should leave | Jim is awoken in the night by Mister Timms, who arrives at his door in bad health and demands that he hands over Voirrey.

The Doctor uses | The Doctor uses [[the Doctor's sonic screwdriver|his sonic screwdriver]] to convert [[sonic energy]] into [[psionic wave]]s and speaks to Gef until he bites the device and scarpers. After finding Mister Timms outside with no [[memory]], Liv and Helen take him home and return to the TARDIS with the Doctor. Mister Timms' state reminds Liv of the [[Infinite Warrior]] and makes her think that he has been possessed by something that wants to feed on Voirrey, leading the Doctor to wonder if they are dealing with a [[Psychevore]]. They remember that Gef said "[[The Sleech|Sleech]]", a possible contraction of "psychic leech". | ||
''to be | Flattering him with what they claim is a preview of the article they are writing, the Doctor, Liv and Helen get back into Price's good books and return to the Irvings' house. Voirrey calls upon Gef to come and bites down on a [[wooden dowel]]. They hear the voice of Gef, claiming to be [[invisibility|invisible]], and Price is bitten. The Doctor manages to trap Gef in a [[jewellery box]] and leaves with Liv and Helen, who are unhappy with the Doctor's lack of concern for Voirrey. They open the box and Gef emerges; he was the one who sent the message as Voirrey is in danger from a Psychevore from the [[Dark Times]]. | ||
The Doctor, Liv and Helen return to the house with Gef, who saves Voirrey from her possessed father. To catch Gef, the Sleech (which has a [[snake|serpentine]] form) leaves Jim and gives chase, but Gef traps it in a box which the Doctor plans to leave on a dusty shelf in the TARDIS. Price gives a speech about the supposed hoax of the Dalby Spook and his disappointment that Mister Timms had not appeared in his spirit box as he said he would. The TARDIS materialises and Mister Timms takes a bow. | |||
