''to be added''
The [[Axos|Axons]] demand surrender and fight the [[UNIT Canada]] [[soldier]]s, whose [[bullet]]s prove useless. [[Josh Carter|Josh]] calls [[Petronella Osgood|Osgood]], confirming that Axons have emerged from the arch in [[Norway]] as well as the ones in [[Canada]] and [[China]], and tells her that the [[tree]]s around him have started growing before his eyes. The Chinese authorities inform Osgood that there is no sign of Kate or Jimmy and that the arch in China has been destroyed. She heads to Norway with [[Yang Li|Li]], who feels indebted to [[Jacqui McGee|Jacqui]], to analyse the trees whilst [[Naomi Cross|Naomi]] goes to [[Lake Claire]] to ask for [[the Eleven]]'s help given that it was [[Third Doctor|a Time Lord]] who defeated Axos last time.
 
Inside Axos, Kate and Jimmy are kept alive. Kate remembers [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|her father]]'s story about how [[Bill Filer|a US agent]] escaped from Axos and uses her heel to damage Axos's nerve centre, allowing her and Jimmy to get free from their restraints. They find an inactive arch and Jimmy realises that he and Osgood have been here before. Axos tells her that they made a deal with the [[Vulpreen]] for their release and that they will feed on enough of [[Earth]] to leave the humans vulnerable to enslavement.
 
Assisted by Li, Osgood analyses the trees and confirms that they have been contaminated with [[Axonite]] as part of Axos's nutrition cycle. The arch, guarded by Axons, activates and Axos drains [[Burgess (Axos Unleashed)|Private Burgess]] of energy. [[UNIT HQ]] reports that further arches have landed near [[Lake Maracaibo]] in [[Venezuela]] and [[Ahvaz]] in [[Iran]]; Li realises that, with the exception of [[Beijing]], the arches are landing in [[oil field]]s, the perfect conduit for Axonite. According to [[Harry Sullivan|Harry]]'s analysis at [[Porton Down]], Axonite is everywhere.
 
Naomi puts [[Faraday cuffs]] on the Eleven and takes him to the arch, but he claims that he can only set up another [[time loop]] from inside Axos.
