In the mid [[21st century]], Captain '''Grant Matthews''' was one of only two [[human]]s that the [[Myloki]] duplicated, creating an indestructible version. The [[Second Doctor]] believed the copy was more of a Myloki-human hybrid since he seemed to be exactly like the original. [[Karl Taylor]], on the other hand, was more like an animated corpse. | In the mid [[21st century]], Captain '''Grant Matthews''' was one of only two [[human]]s that the [[Myloki]] duplicated, creating an indestructible version.

His Myloki programming was reversed, leaving him with free will. Decades later, the Myloki tried to retrieve him so they could sever their ties with our reality.

* Grant Matthews is a reference to [[Scarlet (fictional character)|the title character]] of ''[[Captain Scarlet (TV series)|Captain Scarlet]]''. Matthews (named to reference Scarlet's likeness to Cary Grant and being voiced by actor Francis Matthews), was reconstructed by the Myloki (Mysterons) so that he couldn't die. As a member of the organisation [[PRISM]] (Spectrum), the colour-coded officer's uniform assigned to him was scarlet. The war with the Myloki is started by Captain Karl Taylor (Captain Black) who is recreated as a Myloki agent. | * Grant Matthews is a reference to [[Scarlet (fictional character)|the title character]] of ''[[Captain Scarlet (TV series)|Captain Scarlet]]''.
