Meanwhile, the Doctor meets with [[War Ollistra|Cardinal Ollistra]], who orders him onto a strike team led by [[Veklin]], the agent who came for him on Keska. Also on the team are [[Bennus]] and [[Arverton]], the two agents whom the Doctor rescued from the [[Time Destructor]] before landing on Keska. Ollistra wants them to go behind enemy lines, into an area of space called the [[Null Zone]], which is held by [[Dalek|the Daleks]]. The area is so called because time travel is impossible inside it; only spaceflight can be completed. They will be looking for a missing Time Lord strategist named Seratrix. The Doctor, who still declines to be called by that name, furiously refuses to comply, insults Ollistra and Veklin before remotely summoning his TARDIS with his [[The Doctor's sonic screwdriver|sonic screwdriver]] and escaping, refusing to be part of any team. Veklin, Bennus, and Arverton follow him in a [[Battle TARDIS]]. Meanwhile, the Daleks are preparing to execute their plan.

The Doctor hits the border of the Null Zone, and is forced to land on a nearby planet, although he doesn't know where he is. He finds himself in a Dalek slave camp and meets a man named [[Garv]], who informs him of the planet's identity. They are operating on Keska, leaving him stunned and horrified. The [[Taalyen]]s have conquered the planet since the Doctor removal and a massive drilling machine is being built for the Daleks. Moreover, the Doctor learns there are a thousand worlds in the Null Zone and all of them have received the same treatment. Meanwhile, Veklin's team also lands, though not nearby and finds numerous life signs: Keskan, Taalyen, [[Gallifreyan]] and Dalek.

The Doctor promises Garv that he has fought the Daleks before, and will defeat them here. When asked for a name, he calls himself John Smith, giving Garv and the other slaves a name to give them hope. He is separated from Garv's slave group, who are sent down to the drill level, escaping through a ventilation shaft. The Daleks mention a pre-launch sequence, sparking the Doctor's curiosity. Veklin and her team pursue the Doctor into the machinery, carrying demolition packs in the hopes of finding Seratrix.

The Doctor and Rejoice infiltrate the centre of operations by pretending to help serve food at a celebratory feast for the Taalyen leadership; the [[Prime Dalek (The Thousand Worlds)|Prime Dalek]], Taalyen commander [[Traanus]] and Seratrix are also there. The Doctor learns, to his horror, that Seratrix is working with Traanus and the Prime Dalek. He is outed as a Gallifreyan but Seratrix vouches for him and saves his life, knowing that if the Daleks recognise him as the Doctor, they will kill him.

The drilling machine is launched, and the Prime Dalek announced that it will drill into the planet's core and destroy the core, a plan the Doctor has seen before. Seratrix insists that he is working for the greater good and that their plan will lead to a peace with the Daleks, who will rule the Null Zone. The Doctor is shocked to silence, as the Daleks repeatedly chant, "Peace in our time!".
