Tegan and the Doctor eventually find themselves on the ship's bridge and meet the [[Monarch]] and his two associates, [[Minister of Enlightenment|Enlightenment]] and [[Minister of Persuasion|Persuasion]]. The Monarch is interested in the Doctor and Tegan's knowledge of current and past [[Earth]] culture. He reveals the ship is bound for Earth.

Nyssa claims she saw a humanoid man. The Doctor doubts this until one emerges, dressed in a Greek toga, to ask them to follow him. They are led to a dining chamber and seated at a table, to be joined by an [[Aborigine]] ([[Kurkutji]]), a [[Mayan]] ([[Villagra]]) and a Chinese mandarin ([[Lin Futu]]). They are representatives of their respective cultures; the Greek ([[Bigon]]) represents ancient [[Greece]]. The last guests to join them are Enlightenment and Persuasion, who have transformed into the humans Tegan sketched. | Nyssa claims she saw a humanoid man.
