It attempted to recover a partially-converted [[Marcipor|Marc]] for use in [[espionage]] but was thwarted once again by the [[Fifth Doctor]], whom it called a hypocrite for resorting to violence. Reprogrammed medical [[nano-drone]]s invaded the Cyber-Leader's body, breaking down its conditioning and causing it to remember its past life, driving it mad.

It is speculated that this was the "last ditch plan" of the Cyber-race.<ref>[http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/classic/episodeguide/cyberhistory.shtml BBC.co.uk 'Discontinuity Guide' article on '''Cyber History''' in the original series of ''Doctor Who'']</ref> | |||
