This story marked a significant plot twist: [[Captain]] [[Mike Yates]] betrayed [[UNIT]] as a result of his traumatic experience in ''[[The Green Death (TV story)|The Green Death]]''. As punishment, he was dismissed from UNIT, but [[Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart]] was sympathetic and arranged for the lessening of his punishment. Yates was made to go on an extended sick leave and given the opportunity to make a quiet resignation, granting him the mercy of a graceful departure in exchange for his past service as a loyal officer. Following this event, it was [[Richard Franklin]]'s last regular appearance before returning to do a sendoff performance for his character in ''[[Planet of the Spiders (TV story)|Planet of the Spiders]]'', the Third Doctor's [[regeneration]] story.
