Vicki, who hadn't attended the meeting between the humans and the natives because she was ill, was unaware that Bennett had killed anybody. He planned to use her innocence to protect himself from the authorities. He told her that the natives had wiped out the others, and pretended that he had been [[paralysed]] in the attack.

While backing away from them, he opened a secret door and accidentally fell off the rock ledge to his death. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Rescue (TV story)|The Rescue]]'')
