The [[Fourth Doctor]] shows [[Sarah Jane Smith|Sarah]] some of the other parts of [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] interior. They come across the older console room which, unlike the primary room, is decorated with wood-panelling and has a more archaic feel. Activating the viewscreen, the Doctor sees a swirl of living energy in the time vortex — the [[Mandragora Helix]] — which starts to draw them in. The intelligence within the Helix starts to psychically attack them as the Doctor tries to pilot the TARDIS through it. The ship ends up inside the Helix itself. The Doctor and Sarah go outside, but have to duck behind the TARDIS as a fragment of glowing Helix energy flies by. They escape in the TARDIS, not knowing that the fragment has entered with them. | The [[Fourth Doctor]] shows [[Sarah Jane Smith|Sarah Jane]] some of the other parts of [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] interior.

In 15th century [[San Martino]], Italy, a peasant revolt is violently put down by Count [[Federico]] and his men, led by Captain [[Rossini (The Masque of Mandragora)|Rossini]]. In a palace, Federico's brother, the Duke of San Martino, lays dying. He is attended by his son [[Giuliano]] and Giuliano's companion, [[Marco (The Masque of Mandragora)|Marco]]. The Duke's death had been foretold by [[Hieronymous (The Masque of Mandragora)|Hieronymous]], the court astrologer. Giuliano, a man of science, does not believe in such [[superstition]]. In fact, Hieronymous is working for Federico, and the horoscope's prediction of the Duke's death was helped along by poison. Hieronymous tells the Count that he feels his powers are growing, but all Federico wants is for the astrologer to foretell Giuliano's death next, and he will take care of the rest. | In 15th century [[San Martino]], Italy, a peasant revolt is violently put down by Count [[Federico]] and his men, led by Captain [[Rossini (The Masque of Mandragora)|Rossini]].
