The Doctor is captured by Clegg's drones and communicates with a [[camouflage]]d Spartacus, who warns him that he must get to higher ground to avoid the oncoming flood. Lucie returns to the arena and decides to take Sash's place in the derby so that Sash can get George's [[glasses]] from the medicentre, having realised that they can detect the Jengu when they are camouflaged. Sash collects the glasses and meets [[Tallulah (The Revolution Game)|Tallulah]], a young Jengu and a fan of the derby, and learns that they have been working with George to organise a peaceful protest against the humans. | The Doctor is captured by Clegg's drones and communicates with a [[camouflage]]d Spartacus, who warns him that he must get to higher ground to avoid the oncoming flood.

Sash begins a speech about making peace with the Jengu, but Clegg has her stopped and orders his drones to attack Tallulah and the other young Jengu. Spartacus kidnaps Lucie, believing her to be an important rollerskater, but she manages to escape onto the Doctor's flier and Clegg shoots Spartacus through the [[thorax]]. Clegg offers the Doctor and Lucie jobs at Heliacorp in return for their silence; they refuse his offer and, upon confirming that the arena has been evacuated, the Doctor detonates Spartacus's explosives to awaken the Jengu beneath. | |||
The Doctor and Lucie say farewell to Sash and George and leave in the TARDIS, once again setting the coordinates to random. | |||
