Shockeye is an [[Androgum]], a member of a primitive, emotionally and ethically bestial humanoid race who make up the station's workforce. He is confrontational until the Doctor reveals he is a Time Lord. Suddenly deferential, Shockeye eyes Jamie hungrily and offers to buy him from the Doctor as the main ingredient for a meal. The Doctor, shocked, refuses. He takes Jamie away to see Dastari. As they leave, however, they hear the sound of the TARDIS dematerialising. This is observed by [[Chessene]], an Androgum technologically augmented to mega-genius levels. Chessene has plans of her own. They involve someone named [[Stike]], who will be arriving soon, once Shockeye's poisoned meal for the scientists takes effect. She has also taken possession of the [[Kartz-Reimer module]]. | Shockeye is an [[Androgum]], a member of a primitive, emotionally and ethically bestial humanoid race who make up the station's workforce.

The Doctor speaks to Dastari in his office. He explains the Time Lords want [[Kartz]]' and Reimer's time experiments ended. The Time Lords have an official policy of neutrality. They have sent the exiled Doctor to maintain deniability. | The Doctor speaks to Dastari in his office. He explains the Time Lords want [[Kartz]]' and [[Reimer]]'s time experiments ended.

Dastari introduces Chessene. The Doctor is sceptical that augmentation can change her Androgum nature. He considers such tampering dangerous. | Dastari introduces Chessene. The Doctor is sceptical that augmentation can change her Androgum nature. He considers such tampering dangerous. | ||
Meanwhile, three [[Sontaran]] battlecruisers appear near the station on an intercept course. Before the station's defences are activated, Chessene incapacitates the technician on post and opens the docking bays. Back in the office, the Doctor warns that the distortions from the Kartz-Reimer experiments threaten the fabric of time. Dastari refuses to order them ended. He accuses the Time Lords of not wanting another race to discover the secrets of [[time travel]]. The argument grows more heated. Dastari grows faint and falls into a drugged stupor. Energy weapons begin to sound in the corridors and the Doctor orders Jamie to run, as a Sontaran levels a gun at the Doctor. | Meanwhile, three [[Sontaran]] battlecruisers appear near the station on an intercept course.

He tries explaining that the lake should be full of [[gumblejack]]s, a fish that tastes heavenly when cooked just right. The Doctor packs up his fishing pole, chair and [[umbrella]]. He tells her it's time to leave. After returning to the TARDIS, Peri is startled as the Sixth Doctor sways and collapses — just as, back on the station, Jamie spies the Second Doctor in a glass chamber, writhing in agony while a Sontaran manipulates controls. | ||
In his TARDIS, the Sixth Doctor awakens. He has had a vision of himself in his second incarnation being put to death. He realises this is impossible, since he is still alive, but he is also concerned he may have died in the past and only exists now as a temporal anomaly. He decides to consult his old friend Dastari. | In his TARDIS, the Sixth Doctor awakens. He has had a vision of himself in his second incarnation being put to death.

In Dastari's office, the Doctor discovers the scientist's day journal and the Time Lords' objections to the Kartz-Reimer experiments. He refuses to believe his people are responsible for the massacre. Peri suggests someone is trying to frame the Time Lords to drive a wedge between them and Third Zone governments. They leave the office to enter the service ducts, work their way to the control centre and try to deactivate the computer before it kills them. | In Dastari's office, the Doctor discovers the scientist's day journal and the Time Lords' objections to the Kartz-Reimer experiments.

On Earth, Chessene, Shockeye and a Sontaran, Major [[Varl]], seize a [[Spanish]] hacienda, killing its aged owner, Doña [[Arana]]. Varl sets up a beacon for the Sontaran ship. Chessene absorbs the knowledge of the old woman's mind, learning they are in [[Andalucia]] just outside [[Seville]]. Varl announces Group Marshal [[Stike]] of the [[Ninth Sontaran Battle Fleet]] is in orbit. | On [[Earth]], Chessene, Shockeye and a Sontaran, Major [[Varl]], seize a [[Spanish]] hacienda, killing its aged owner, Doña [[Arana]].

Meanwhile, [[Oscar Botcherby]] and [[Anita (The Two Doctors)|Anita]], approach the grounds. Oscar, an English ex-stage actor who is running a restaurant in the city, is here to catch [[moth]]s, armed with a net and a [[cyanide]] killing jar. Anita and he see the Sontaran ship zoom overhead and through binoculars observe Dastari and another Sontaran carrying an unconscious Second Doctor towards the hacienda. Anita pulls Oscar along, thinking them victims of an [[aeroplane]] crash who need help. | Meanwhile, [[Oscar Botcherby]] and [[Anita (The Two Doctors)|Anita]], approach the grounds.

In the bowels of the station, the Sixth Doctor tries to disconnect the main circuit. Suddenly, Peri is attacked by a humanoid in rags. Her cries distract the Doctor. He is hit by a gas trap and falls unconscious, ensnared in the wires. | In the bowels of the station, the Sixth Doctor tries to disconnect the main circuit.
