After arriving aboard the ''[[Ark of Whispers]]'', the Doctor fell down a hole upon exiting the TARDIS, injuring his ankle. Crawling along in the dark, he began communicating with a computer interface which was chirping back. Realising it was copying him and Benny, the Doctor began to use it to indirectly communicate with Benny, who was still at the top of the ship. Finding his way out of the ventilation shaft, he continued exploring the ship whilst teaching the interface. He realised the interface was becoming intelligent and withholding information. Together he and Benny deduced the ship was designed to be isolated and kept in silence, however he realised the ship was on a collision course with a populated planet. After Benny used the interface to foil his attempt to blow up the ship to force him to find a better way, he confessed his recent misery. Realising they needed to persuade the interface not to hit the planet, he had Benny retrieve the [[TARDIS tuner]] to force it to listen to the people on the planet. His plan worked and he and Benny parted ways with the interface, though they were saddened when it revealed that it had to delete its newly acquired knowledge to complete its mission.

The Doctor took Benny to the bogs of [[Gelmoth]] to investigate [[the Undying]], an ancient being who had died despite being supposedly immortal. They arrived just as a preserved body was excavated by a group seeking the Undying and joined their expedition, with the Doctor pretending to be from their head office. After one of the crew died due to running into the bog in fear, the expedition left in their spaceship with the Doctor having the TARDIS brought onboard. During the journey they discovered the Undying was actually a fungus possessing a host and its spores had been influencing them. After the Doctor purged it using the spaceship’s airlock he and Benny departed, however as they entered the TARDIS the [[Time Lords]] attempted to stop them.
