He warned Rex to get rid of the Master or he would come out of retirement and take over the running of Farrel Plastics again, before leaving for home. Before he left, the Master tossed a Nestene-controlled plastic troll doll into the back seat of Farrel's car.
Farrel later brought the doll inside his house and showed it to Mary. When she went to make some coffee, the doll attacked and killed Farrel. (TV: Terror of the Autons)
