Gonsalves feeds [[nutrient]] [[soup]] to the "parcel" that [[UNIT]] are coming to purchase: [[Dalek (The Dalek Transaction)|a damaged and disarmed Dalek]] whose sale she intends to finance her group's [[revolution]]. After bribing the city officials, UNIT travel to the rendezvous point and are taken, [[blindfold]]ed, into a [[truck]] where they are [[gas]]sed and driven to the [[camp]]. Gonsalves has Osgood, Josh and Shindi taken to the [[bunker]] to see the Dalek and discusses the transaction with Kate. Osgood scans the Dalek and detects that it is mutating. | |||
