 === Capture ===
-Having been alerted by [[Takis (Revelation of the Daleks)|Takis]], a worker at [[Tranquil Repose]] on the [[planet]] [[Necros]], [[Dalek]]s loyal to the [[Supreme Dalek]] came to Tranquil Repose where they captured Davros. Informing him that he was to stand trial "for [[crime]]s against the Daleks", the Daleks took Davros with them. ([[TV]]: ''[[Revelation of the Daleks (TV story)|Revelation of the Daleks]]'')

 En route to Skaro, the ship carrying Davros crashed on the planet [[Lethe (The Juggernauts)|Lethe]]. Davros was rescued. He set himself up as "Professor Vaso", altering the perceptions of the humans on the colony so they would not recognise him as the "Great Healer". He attempted to create a new machine, a [[Juggernaut]] based on a [[Mechanoid]] design.

 === The trial ===
+==== Account 1: Before the Golden Emperor ====
 According to one account, Davros was then taken to Skaro, where he was put on trial by the [[Dalek Prime|Golden Emperor]]. He tried to argue that under the Emperor, the Daleks, lacking his guidance, had seen their destiny curtailed, and that only he could allow them to advance once again. Although some [[Scientist Dalek]]s were privately swayed by the argument, the irate Emperor thundered that it was in command of the Daleks' destiny, not Davros, and ordered his [[extermination]].

 By suggestion of the Doctor, ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Up Above the Gods (comic story)|Up Above the Gods]]'') Davros hid himself on [[Spiridon]], along with his empire of Daleks. The Daleks who had put him on trial before came to return him to Skaro, but his Daleks held them off. Davros detonated the planet, killing the Daleks. He woke highly injured, four days into the [[Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War]], in a new casing as the [[Dalek Emperor]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Emperor of the Daleks! (comic story)|Emperor of the Daleks!]]'')
+==== Account 2: Like "second hand goods" ====
+According to a second account, the trial was not a legal endeavor but instead the Daleks "trying out" Davros to solve the schism that had appeared in [[Dalek Empire|their empire]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Innocence (audio story)|Innocence]]'') after the [[Dalek-Movellan War]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (novelisation)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'') As Davros put it, the Daleks were "trying [him] out" as if he were "second hand goods" that needed to be tested before being used. Despite finding the Daleks' request for direction pathetic, he agreed to help and began to reflect on the past. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Innocence (audio story)|Innocence]]'')
+==== Account 3: The interference of the Thal ====
 According to another account, Davros encountered the Thal [[Lareen]] while en route to Skaro. Lareen was using a stealth suit that made her invisible to Dalek scanners. Lareen attempted to find Davros' "good side," and believed she had succeeded. She gave Davros a capsule containing an enhanced version of the [[Movellan virus]] and asked him to release it during his trial. This would destroy all Daleks on Skaro, and make Davros a hero.
