Plot

On Skaro, Daleks are preparing a Temporal Talon device, another Dalek reports about charging up energy receptors. The first Dalek reports calibrating of vortex visor. An Imperial Dalek reports the Emperor wants an update. The second Dalek reports that the Temporal Talon is charging. The first Dalek says that full power will be achieved in 5 units. The Imperial Dalek tells them to shoot at will upon reaching full power. The Daleks acknowledge and prepare for capture.

In the TARDIS, Mel Bush asks the Sixth Doctor if he is done excercising. The Doctor replies that he is and that he did everything she asked for. Mel asks if he drank… but an irritated Doctor interrupts saying that he drank her blasted concoction. Mel tells him to not be like that, saying it's just carrot juice. The Doctor, annoyed, says that he has eaten more carrots than she can… but the TARDIS interrupts with a "whhhiiirrr!" sound. Mel asks What’s wrong, and the Doctor says that someone is trying to pull the TARDIS out of the Vortex.

At Skaro, the Daleks report that the target has been captured and was a success and to inform the Emperor. The first Dalek says that energy supply is depleting. The second Dalek says that Skaro Energy Grid has been tapped and is unstable. The Imperial Dalek says that it will relay information to Emperor. The first Dalek says to expedite as energy supply is dwindling.

In the TARDIS, Mel asks the Doctor what’s happening. The Doctor says that it seems they have been forcibly plucked from the Vortex by the Daleks. Mel says it sounds bad and asks if it is. The Doctor says that it is frightingly so as the energy output for that would be astronomical. Mel asks if he is being hyperbolic or literal as she can never tell. The Doctor says they are using a lot of energy and that he can't escape the beam. Mel asks if that is bad, not to mention that it's the Daleks. The Doctor says that of course it is, but for them, and says to just let them burn more energy. He tells her that before they go out, that he's got a plan. Mel says she understands.

Outside, the Doctor tells the Daleks that they can try all they want but their weapons are useless, and adds that they're as useless as their usual plans of conquest. The first Dalek reports the Doctor is detected. The second Dalek says to inform the Emperor. The Doctor is fascinated and asks if it is one of them or if it is… Davros interrupts him, saying they meet again but that he planned for it this time. The Doctor says that it is dreadful to meet him here. Davros says he would usually share the sentiment but today he is filled with glee from gazing upon his visage. The Doctor says he is surprised his heart can muster anything but hatred.

Davros says the Doctor is bold to use insults when he is in his… the Doctor interrupts him, finishing his sentence "…trap", saying he is not impressed and ask Mel. Mel ask if that is so, and says that she is Melanie and that she thinks his plan is bonkers. Davros says that the Doctor can keep up his pantomime but that his shield will soon deplete, and when that happens his Daleks will exterminate him. The Doctor tells Davros that he just do what he needs to do.

Davros tells the Daleks to not let them escape and to stand vigilant. The first Dalek obeys. Davros further tells them to analyse the barrier as it has some kind of interference. The Doctor is surprised that Davros noticed that and says that it is just one of the many upgrades they made. The Doctor turns to Mel, asking if she heard him and repeats himself. Mel apologizes, saying her mind wandered while looking at the architecture, noting that is is quite ugly, saying she doesn't know why they like that shade… the Doctor interrupts her, reminding her of what they talked about before. Mel comes to her senses, saying that they have so many upgrades. Davros asks what he is trying to do and says blathering is unbecoming of him.
