The Doctor and Rodney arrive in a huge building and they find a huge containment facility full of Mobox being tortured. Rodney says they are being studied, revealing his true nature at last. He assumes that the Doctor belongs to a rival company, telling her that he let her live to see what Icarus Inc. had achieved. The Doctor realises that these are the 600 Mobox who supposedly died in the mine accident. Rodney explains that Icarus Inc. is harnessing the power inside the Mobox, namely their internal furnaces, and they sold the colony to the Mobox to bring them here. He goes on to say how they will breed Mobox and sell power to the galaxy at an affordable rate. | The Doctor and Rodney arrive in a huge building and they find a huge containment facility full of Mobox being tortured.

The Doctor angrily states that she will tear down the obscenity and Rodney with it as Rodney fires his gun. It does nothing, and the Doctor explains she drained the power pack with the [[sonic screwdriver]] back in the alley. Rodney orders security to kill the Doctor as she bumps into Graham, Ryan, Yaz and R'Takk coming through an open door, telling them to reverse back into the room where the red people were. The Doctor realises that the red-suited people control the mag-storms using a Gravitron, a device that can manipulate weather patterns. R'Takk angrily tries to kill one of the red-suited men until the Doctor calms him by informing him that Mobox are in there. She deactivates the neutraliser cuffs, freeing the Mobox. | The Doctor angrily states that she will tear down the obscenity and Rodney with it as Rodney fires his gun.

Rodney tries to access the control room when the guards run past, exclaiming the Mobox are free. The others take off with them, with Rodney yelling that they are all fired. Yaz tells the Doctor that the Mobox are going to go ballistic, but the Doctor uses the Gravitron to generate an anti-gravity field so everyone can calm down. Rodney floats into the room, telling the Doctor that she has made a powerful enemy and Icarus Inc. will hunt her down and kill her. However, R'Takk grabs him by the arm, informing Rodney that he is a law officer. Yaz asks the Doctor how far the gravity field reaches, and the Doctor says not very. | Rodney tries to access the control room when the guards run past, exclaiming the Mobox are free.
