Summary[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor, Amy Pond and Rory Williams are in hiding in a Sentork Science Hanger. They are watching crates of Golesterkol weapons (the worst weapons ever) being moved around, but they are discovered. At cannon-point they are taken away to the "Professor", a collector of Golesterkol weapons for decades. As agreed, the Professor pays two thousand Ohgs for the delivery of the last two remaining Golesterkol weapons and completes his collection. The Doctor rages at the Professor when he talks of collecting them only to improve them further.

Suddenly the aliens delivering the consignment turn a double-cross. Turning the weapons on the Professor, they intend to take the payment AND the collection. Firing the weapons, the aliens are horrified to find that the weapons work against them, transforming them into something with spots, plant-like fronds and extended ears and antennae. In a panic, the aliens run away.

The Doctor admits to not having interfered and rightly assumes the only person capable of re-engineering the weapons is "Professor" Golesterko, who explains. The discovery of Golesterkol energy was intended for farming tools but was misused. It has taken years to collect all the weapons and make them fit for their original purpose. The Doctor praises him for the effort and with the weapons no more use and their intended purpose restored, the Professor has again made the universe a better place – twice!
