After saving Jenny by crashing through the [[window]] on a [[motorcycle]], Kal banishes the demons as well as Keeth by reversing Keeth's [[guitar]] riff. Harry checks on Kal's headache afterwards, finding that his [[eardrum]]s were not perforated by the [[music]], and is told by the Brigadier to use the EEC again when Kal starts wondering how he is seemingly capable of absorbing information. The Brigadier decides that things will be stricter and more regulated in UNIT, having Roach arrange a debriefing before the office of the [[head editor]] of the ''[[Metropolitan]]'' calls for Sarah's "Uncle Alistair". | After saving Jenny by crashing through the [[window]] on a [[motorcycle]], Kal banishes the demons as well as Keeth by reversing Keeth's [[guitar]] riff.

Daphne and Sokolov inform the Doctor that he will replace Tájna as the scientific advisor of a UNIT equivalent called the [[SSRG]] (or "United Socialist Soviet Intelligence Taskforce"). Reasoning that there is a quick route out of the building which Daphne must have used, the Doctor steals a [[snowmobile]] and is chased by guards, eventually stopping and returning with wolves on his trail after the guards blow up the vehicle's [[petrol]] tank.

''to be | The device does nothing but prickle Sarah's [[skin]], meaning that it could be a scanning device rather than a weapon. The Doctor agrees to work for the SSRG so long as Sokolov promises that Sarah will be released after the first month. Sokolov shows them Tájna's collection in a 200-metre [[lead]]-lined [[bunker]] full of artefacts that need testing, but they will be unable to remove the melt guns, which were used to melt the prison van, Sarah's car and Hurley's corpse after he was shot. | ||
Roach informs the Brigadier that [[Asquith (Kaleidoscope)|Captain Asquith]] has been unable to locate Hurley or Daphne. With the Doctor and Sarah missing as well, Jenny drives to Sarah's house and retrieves a [[cassette recorder]] which she has been using to record her phone calls as part of her investigative journalism. She presents it to Kal and plays a call that Sarah received from Daphne, after which the two of them [[kiss]]. Sokolov watches this happen through Kal's eyes and, with Daphne exposed, he gives Kal instructions to kill Jenny. Harry arrives as Kal shoots his maser gun wildly before falling unconscious. | |||
The Doctor and Sarah find a photograph of the mysterious octagon found with Kal when he arrived in [[Leningrad]] twenty years ago, but it was considerably smaller and, according to the notes, can be opened like a [[flower]] to reveal the entrance to a space-time tunnel. This, they realise, is how Daphne has been able to move between the UK and Siberia so quickly. The Doctor is told to watch the last footage received from Kal before it cut out and determines that the [[psychic link]] was severed when he was told to kill his sweetheart. Sokolov accepts that he has to abandon Kal and tells Daphne to trick the Brigadier into taking an implosive device into UNIT HQ. | |||
After having to cut a call with Daphne short to find out what was happening to Kal, the Brigadier has Roach take him to her flat at Heath Hampstead. He gives her [[chrysanthemum]]s and, after she references Quartz Chrysanthemum and he finds a gun in her [[handbag]], he holds her at gunpoint and reveals that he knows that she was behind her husband's death. She admits to being a Soviet spy and tells him that she drugged his [[scotch]], making him suggestible to her command to take an implosive device to UNIT HQ in a briefcase. | |||
