Believing that he manipulated the people of Zaltys into making themselves vulnerable, the Doctor confronts Gevaudan, but Perrault reveals that he is responsible. He met the vampires whilst on a [[diplomacy|diplomatic]] excursion to [[Okinos]] and has been helping them with the promise that they would make him one of them, allowing him to explore the universe that his [[xenophobia|xenophobic]] species cut Zaltys off from. When the ship lands and the vampires emerge in [[sunlight-resistant suit]]s, Talia shoots and kills Perrault for his [[treason]]. | Believing that he manipulated the people of Zaltys into making themselves vulnerable, the Doctor confronts Gevaudan, but Perrault reveals that he is responsible.

Nyssa feigns a twisted [[ankle]] and Sable leaves her to Gevaudan, with whom Nyssa shares a psychic connection, whilst she threatens Adric to continue going with her to the TARDIS to leave Zaltys. Gevaudan takes Nyssa to the command centre where the Doctor decides to sacrifice himself to send the ''Exemplar'' outside of [[spacetime]] through a wormhole, telling Nyssa and Gevaudan to find Adric. Nyssa disagrees with the Doctor's choice and Gevaudan uses her mind to amplify his own powers and get the vampires to expose themselves to the [[sunlight]], turning them all to [[ash]]. Gevaudan takes the full force of the psychic backlash and dies, sparing Nyssa's life by releasing her just in time. | Nyssa feigns a twisted [[ankle]] and Sable leaves her to Gevaudan, with whom Nyssa shares a psychic connection, whilst she threatens Adric to continue going with her to the TARDIS to leave Zaltys.

When Adric and Sable arrive at the TARDIS and find Tegan there, Sable threatens Tegan's life to force Adric to open the ship, and Lusca emerges from the water to [[drowning|drown]] Sable and save her friend, but she is shot and dies with her. The Doctor ensures that Lusca and Gevaudan's bodies are returned to their people and is reunited with his companions, saying that everything that comes in threes is perfect. Adric points out that this means that there are one too many travellers in the TARDIS. | When Adric and Sable arrive at the TARDIS and find Tegan there, Sable threatens Tegan's life to force Adric to open the ship, and Lusca emerges from the water to [[drowning|drown]] Sable and save her friend, but she is shot and dies with her.
