Turlough stands in front of Tegan to protect her when they are attacked by the second Sythak, which Berman saves them from by crushing its [[skull]]. He is [[poison]]ed, however, and Turlough and Tegan go looking for an [[antidote]] before the first Sythak approaches and Winklemeyer catches the Doctor. The Doctor claims that he has released an anti-elixir into the water supply which will kill off the Vermaal spores and contacted the galactic authorities about his use of smart implants, which Turlough does not believe is true, but Winklemeyer will not leave before killing the Doctor and controls the Sythak with a [[flute]]. Using an identical instrument, the Doctor fights for control. | Turlough stands in front of Tegan to protect her when they are attacked by the second Sythak, which Berman saves them from by crushing its [[skull]].

Winklemeyer | Winklemeyer loses the contest as Turlough has had the Mimic disguise itself as the flute away and the Sythak grabs him, locking him away in a cage. Tegan hugs Turlough when they find that Berman is dead and the Doctor gives the override unit to the Mimic, who disables the implants. After burying Berman, the Doctor takes the freaks home, leaves Winklemeyer to the authorities and takes Turlough and Tegan away, but Turlough is no longer sure that he wants to return home and is finding TARDIS travel interesting. | ||
