The operation has only restored Morbius's motor functions, and the result is a savage monster. | The operation has only restored Morbius's motor functions, and the result is a savage monster. Solon is attacked, and Sarah Jane is saved only by the wounded Condo's self-sacrifice. The Doctor awakens and convinces Solon that they need to hunt the creature down. Solon tranquilizes the creature, but not before it kills one of the Sisterhood. Solon convinces the Doctor that he's going to dismantle the creature, but instead locks the Doctor out of the lab, leaving him free to perfect the operation. The Doctor injects [[cyanide]] gas into the lab, killing Solon, but not before Morbius rises again, fully sentient. Morbius confronts the Doctor and explains that he now has the lungs of a [[birastrop]], rendering him immune to the cyanide. He boasts that despite his monstrous appearance, his followers will rise to join him once more. The Doctor challenges Morbius to a [[Mindbending|mindbending]] contest, which overloads after a fierce contest of wills. The Doctor falls to the ground near death, and Morbius reverts to his earlier savagery. The Sisterhood corner Morbius and drive him over a cliff, and he falls to his death. The Doctor's life is restored with the help of the Elixir, produced by Maren's self-sacrifice to the Sacred Flame. The Doctor gives Ohica a pack of firecrackers in case they have any more trouble. | ||
