The TARDIS has an unexpected power failure and makes a landing in an endless corridor of mirrors. [[Sixth Doctor|The Doctor]] and [[Peri Brown|Peri]] are surprised to find the apparently disconnected chameleon circuit engaged. The TARDIS transforms into one of the many mirrors. Peri marks it with her lipstick. The Doctor hears voices up ahead and they work their way through the maze of mirrors to a large, empty hall with a single mirror. | The TARDIS has an unexpected power failure and makes a landing in an endless corridor of mirrors.

At a table in the middle of the room sits two similar people who each gives their name as [[Ademus]]. The Doctor knows the name but can't remember anything else. Ademus explains that, like them, he was a traveller who has been trapped. The only way to escape and free the TARDIS is to smash the mirror, but he refuses to reveal why he can't. Finding his way back to the TARDIS, the Doctor returns with a U.H.L.F. (a large sonic lance that he once picked up on Mars). He switches it on and points it at the mirror, which shimmers and warps - he suddenly stops. | At a table in the middle of the room sits two similar people who each gives their name as [[Ademus]].

* According to [[Sixth Doctor|the Doctor]], the TARDIS' [[chameleon circuit]] has been disconnected, presumably after the unsuccessful attempts to repair it in ''[[Logopolis (TV story)|Logopolis]]'' and more recently at the time of ''[[Attack of the Cybermen (TV story)|Attack of the Cybermen]]''. | |||
* The Doctor opens the TARDIS doors manually when the TARDIS is all but drained of its power. This was done in ''[[Death to the Daleks (TV story)|Death to the Daleks]]''. | |||
