Galleia presents the Master to the council. The Doctor and Jo are in attendance. The Master announces he will bring Kronos. Jo tells Galleia that the king is dead. Galleia orders the Master seized, but Krasis summons Kronos, whom the Master orders to destroy Atlantis. Jo tries to stop the Master but is taken to his TARDIS, which dematerialises. The Doctor escapes into his TARDIS. The Doctor contacts the Master and threatens him with a time ram. The Master calls his bluff, but the Doctor gives him one last chance. Jo pleads with the Doctor to do it, but when he says there's another way, Jo pushes the button, causing the time ram. | Galleia presents the Master to the council.

* Inspiration came to [[Robert Sloman]] during a walk outdoors, when he heard an airplane flying overhead and was reminded of the sound of German bombers during the Second World War. From this experience came the idea of “time slippages”, and Sloman envisaged a fleet of World War One biplanes descending on a modern-day aircraft. As Sloman developed his narrative, it was realised that budgetary considerations would prevent the First World War element from featuring prominently. Instead, it was decided to emphasise the Atlantis strand of the plot. | * Inspiration came to [[Robert Sloman]] during a walk outdoors, when he heard an airplane flying overhead and was reminded of the sound of German bombers during the Second World War.

* At Stratfield Saye, stuntman [[Greg Powell]], playing the knight who attacked the convoy in Episode Three, was thrown from his horse when his mount did not follow the planned route and collided with one of the UNIT vehicles. Accounts vary as to the extent of the injuries to both Powell and the horse. Equity, the actors' union, condemned the incident because budgetary limitations had prevented [[Paul Bernard]] from hiring more than a single stunt driver. | * At Stratfield Saye, stuntman [[Greg Powell]], playing the knight who attacked the convoy in Episode Three, was thrown from his horse when his mount did not follow the planned route and collided with one of the UNIT vehicles.

* While filming scenes in [[Bessie]] using a side-mounted camera, [[Jon Pertwee]] and [[Katy Manning]] realised that they had gotten lost.
