' | Susan and Patrick are blocked in the middle of the river, just as the other men; if they move, the blocks of ice would make them slip into the water. The Alley Dogs are about to go and leave Patrick to his destiny, but the Doctor stops them and with a rousing speech persuades the gang members to work together and help the people get out of the river, remembering them how the gangs were invented to protect "their people". The boys then begin to gather plancks of wood and use them to travel from one block of ice to another, thus giving people a way to reach the shore safely; they are even helped by the police, who has also arrived on the scene. | ||
At the train track, Ian has survived the crash from the telephone pole, just as the other man, but Rosalita has finally found her son and husband. Joseph hit his head and he is badly wounded, and she insists to bring him to a doctor. Henry tries to stop her, but she retorts by telling him how much she is fed up of his violent behaviour, and how she went away to protect their son. Henry apologizes and promises to try and be better. They both leave to find a doctor, while Ian and Barbara elect to come back to the TARDIS in the hope that the Doctor and Susan are already back there. | |||
O'Connell finally reaches Patrick and grabs him, but he is persuaded by his pleas that he was an accident and decides not to kill him. When Susan and Patrick are back on shore, Patrick walks to a policeman and asks to be arrested, in order to pay for his crime. Daniel goes with him, and also O'Donnell, who just decided to witness in his favour so that he gets release. The Doctor and Susan are free to go back to the TARDIS. They are preceded by Ian and Barbara, who saw an old man unconscious in the snow, and for a moment fear he is the Doctor - but is only an unfortunate victim of the storm. When the Doctor arrives with Susan suffering of [[hypothermia]], they all board the ship and leave. | |||
As Ian and Susan are now both recovered, the two teachers confide in her pupil that they sometimes find it painful to travel with them, since it puts them in front of the horrors of history. Susan asks whether they'd like to leave, but before Barbara can answer, the Doctor comes into the console room, yelling excitedly that he has found [[The Invention of Death (audio story)|a way to bring Ian and Barbara home]]. | |||
