However, before he can ponder this further, Clara draws his attention to the outside of the ship, where the ghosts have reappeared. The Doctor greets them warmly, wondering if they wanted them to see this strange writing. The ghosts do not respond, only walking over to a wall to grab weapons. Clara notes that this is not going well. The Doctor wonders if Clara said anything to offend them, as she once even got into a fight with [[Gandhi]]. Moran fires a harpoon gun at them but misses. The Doctor and Clara run out of the hanger; the ghosts follow them through the walls but are forced to leave their armaments behind as they are not intangible like them. | However, before he can ponder this further, Clara draws his attention to the outside of the ship, where the ghosts have reappeared.

Now back in the corridors, they run away from the ghosts. At the end of the corridor, O'Donnell opens a door, yelling for them to enter. They comply and the door is slammed behind them. The room is filled with living supplies and the remaining six members of the crew. A smug man by the name of [[Richard Pritchard|Pritchard]] tells them that if they don't work for [[Vector Petroleum]], they are in big trouble. The Doctor brandishes the [[psychic paper]] and introduces himself and Clara. Shocked by what he sees on the psychic paper, Pritchard yelps that they're from [[UNIT]]; "Well, if that's what it says." the Doctor passively says. O'Donnell shakes his hand, happy to meet a Doctor. The Doctor asks what the ghosts are, dismissing the idea they are ghosts; he asks to know who's in charge, so he can ignore them. Lunn explains that Cass is, but Pritchard claims to be as he's from management. | Now back in the corridors, they run away from the ghosts.

The Doctor ignores Pritchard, asking what happened; Lunn begins translating for Cass, but the Doctor tells him that he can understand [[sign language]]. Cass begins explaining, but the Doctor asks her to stop; he thinks he deleted sign language from the TARDIS for [[Semaphore]]. Lunn resumes translating; the mole alien killed Moran as soon as the ship got brought on board and the ghosts have pretty much been trying to kill them since. The crew hide out here in the [[Faraday cage]] as the ghosts cannot enter it for some reason. The Doctor notes how odd it is for the alien ghost to be aggressive as [[Tivolian]]s are so cowardly, "They wouldn't even say boo to a goose." A recorded voice announces that day mode is on. Everyone starts leaving the room, confusing the Doctor; O'Donnell explains that the ghosts only come out at night. | The Doctor ignores Pritchard, asking what happened; Lunn begins translating for Cass, but the Doctor tells him that he can understand [[sign language]].
