Cast
- The Doctor once served as a delegate at the Third Intergalactic Peace Conference, though en route he got waylaid by Medusoids. Circa the year 2040, the Doctor helped the Draconians with a space plague and so they receive him as an honoured guest. He tells Jo the story of his trial by the Time Lords, his forced regenartion and his exile to Earth, though perhaps mainly as a way to conceal the fact that he meanwhile manages to cut his way out of an iron cell. The Master says that the Doctor "does not fear death".
- Under the influence of the Master's hypnosound device, Jo sees a Drashig, from the previous adventure. She mentions again the uncle that got her a job at UNIT and the lack of romance involved in it and the drudgery involved. Friends and family think she goes on glamourous secret agent missions. She compares the Brigadier, unfavourably, to James Bond. (Like the Doctor, she appears to have a monologue in order to cover the Doctor's escape.)
- In a moment of leisure, the Master relaxes with a copy of the H.G. Wells novel The War of the Worlds. He characterizes the Daleks, his obstensible allies, privately, as "stupid tin boxes".
