The [[President Winters|American President]] arrives in [[Air Force One]] in London. He tells Saxon that [[UNIT]] has Control over the operation, citing a United Nations protocol. Winters insists on moving first contact to the neutral ground of the UNIT aircraft carrier [[Valiant]] and conducting the meeting with the Toclafane for himself. The Master brings along [[Francine Jones|Francine]], [[Tish Jones|Tish]] and [[Clive Jones|Clive]], and the Doctor and friends follow using Jack's [[vortex manipulator]]. On board, they find the [[TARDIS]], its [[cloister bell]] ringing, and the interior glowing an ominous red. It had been changed by [[the Master]] into a [[paradox machine]], set to go off at 8:02 AM. The trio head for the room in which the first contact is being held. The Doctor has a plan: if he manages to put the TARDIS key around the Master's neck, then everyone will see the Master for who he truly is. | The [[President Winters|American President]] arrives in [[Air Force One]] in London.

When the first contact begins, the Toclafane complain that the President is not the Master. The Master reveals himself to the entire world and tells the Toclafane to kill the President. The Doctor is captured by the guards and the Master temporarily kills Jack with his [[laser screwdriver]] [[File:50j.jpg|thumb|The Toclafane invading Earth]], equipped with LazLab's Genetic Manipulation technology. With DNA from the Doctor's hand (stolen during the events of [[Utopia (TV story)|Utopia]]), it allows the Master to artificially (and visibly) age the Doctor by 100 years. The Master brings in the Jones family to witness this attack. | When the first contact begins, the Toclafane complain that the President is not the Master.

With the paradox machine ready, the Master tells the people of [[Earth]] to witness the end of the world. The paradox machine activates, creating a massive [[time rift|rift]] above the Valiant from which six billion Toclafane descend from. He orders them to kill one tenth of the earth's population. When asked, he refuses to reveal the true identity of the [[Toclafane]], saying it would break the Doctor's hearts. Whilst the Master is distracted, Martha glances at the Doctor, Jack and her family. She teleports to Earth using the manipulator, given to her by Jack, promising to return as she watches the Toclafane descend. The Master and his wife look down on the planet, calling it his "new dominion", with the aged Doctor between them, forced to confront his failure to stop the Master. | With the paradox machine ready, the Master tells the people of [[Earth]] to witness the end of the world.
