The Brigadier has his men bring Jenny to [[UNIT HQ]] and claims ignorance when she complains about her show going off-air and her evidence mysteriously disappearing. He offers to protect her from Hurley and the [[Ministry of Defence]] in return for her publicly retracting her story on the Doctor, but she refuses and accepts his second offer of access to some of UNIT's activities. Sarah bursts in and tells the Brigadier that she has received a call from Daphne, telling her that the Doctor is to be moved in a convoy led by Hurley. | The Brigadier has his men bring Jenny to [[UNIT HQ]] and claims ignorance when she complains about her show going off-air and her evidence mysteriously disappearing.

They go to [[UNIT HQ laboratory|the Doctor's laboratory]] where the hovering octagonal prism which apparated on Hempstead Heath is stored. The Brigadier offers to hire Kal on a temporary basis and asks him to work out what the prism is; the voices in his head tell him to accept the offer. | Two days after the Doctor's disappearance, the Brigadier, Harry, Jenny and Kal take the box containing the Grid to UNIT's original headquarters in [[Central London]], now used as a secure storage facility.
