The Doctor takes Nadia for a short trip in [[the Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] to arrive on board the [[Quarsian]] craft. Avoiding detection from the Quarsians, clumsy-looking (and moving), upright, green creatures with eyes extended on stalks, the Doctor uses one of the [[diamond]]s which is responding to a massive concentration of [[Zortron energy]] by glowing, to follow a trail to the engine room. The engine room stores a huge amount of Zortron Energy, powerful but bulky. It could be used to power an entire fleet of ships. The diamonds are needed by the Quarsians to harness this energy. | The Doctor takes Nadia for a short trip in [[the Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] to arrive on board the [[Quarsian]] craft.

The Doctor climbs to the top of the energy store with a diamond big enough to block the energy inlet. This would create a dam and cause a feedback of energy and an overload to the system. The Doctor hurries back down the ladder. Nadia is waiting, looking to make a quick escape but they are apprehended by armed Quarsian guards who introduce the Doctor to his [[Destructor Unit J7|robot]] twin. The Quarsians intend to use it to infiltrate the colonists base and kill the humans | The Doctor climbs to the top of the energy store with a diamond big enough to block the energy inlet.
