' | [[Susan Mendes]] has spent the last several years working for the [[Dalek]]s, helping to improve the efficiency of their workforce by improving working conditions. In doing so, she has given hope to millions of slaves of the Daleks, but her best friend, [[Kalendorf]], does not approve of what she is doing. | ||
Susan thought she was helping, that by allowing the deaths of thousands she was saving millions. She and Kalendorf, by communicating [[Telepathy|telepathically]], have been able to plant the seeds of rebellion. But she suddenly realises that she doesn't believe the rebellion can work and that she is a collaborator. Something in her changes. | |||
When the Daleks take Susan and Kalendorf to [[Yaldos]], Susan is to make a speech for the Daleks. She plans to use the opportunity to begin the rebellion against the Daleks. | |||
