After spending a couple of hours sorting through the TARDIS wardrobe, [[Jo Grant|Jo]] returns to the console room to find the Doctor absent. After discovering that they've landed and theorizing that he's gone out to explore, she checks the scanner to find it completely dark outside. She takes a torch and, after a moment of apprehension for what may be out there, ventures outside.

She discovers numerous bodies in the darkness, all of them reduced to skeletons. After a moment of exploration she discovers the cold, unresponsive body of [[Third Doctor|The Doctor]] and fears him dead. She then discovers a tape recorder by his side with the words "Use Me" written on it. She assumes that the Doctor had left a message for her, but after playing it back she discovers it is blank. Ever the optimist, Jo refuses to believe that he's dead and instead compares aspects of this current predicament with similarities of previous adventures - she theorizes that, like on [[Spiridon]], the Doctor has become frozen and wants her to record any progress or discovery she makes while he's out cold, so he can catch up on it later when he comes round. She begins recording at this point. She also theorizes that, like the events at [[Devil's End]], the Doctor will be awoken by a sudden rise in temperature. She sets off to the TARDIS to fetch a medikit but discovers it locked itself after she closed the door, with the Doctor possessing the only key. She returns to his body but after rummaging through his pockets, she finds it missing. Jo then decides that the best course of action is to look for a way out and find help. She promises the Doctor's unconscious body that she will return, setting off into the darkness.
