Lydia says that the show will have to be cancelled due to her [[leg]] injury, but Julian instead gives her role to Mel and hires the Doctor as [[choreographer]] to ensure that the performance goes ahead. When Julian introduces the six investors but names only five of them, Mel realises that the sixth is Karel Lombard, whom [[Billy (Broadway Belongs to Me!)|Billy]] [[photograph]]s shaking the Doctor's hand at Julian's order. Lydia attacks and detains the Doctor during the performance so that she and Julian can force Mel to complete the performance rather than spoil it as has been her plan. | Lydia says that the show will have to be cancelled due to her [[leg]] injury, but Julian instead gives her role to Mel and hires the Doctor as [[choreographer]] to ensure that the performance goes ahead.

''to | Julian reveals that he, the crew and the audience belong to the [[Alliance of Retribution]], a group of forgettable opponents of the Doctor who plan to spread the photograph of the Doctor with Lombard and the other [[fascism|fascists]] to discredit him. They build up psionic energy to [[torture]] the Doctor and kill Mel, but the Doctor uses his and his past self's cat badges to damage the Alliance's [[spaceship]] and force them to leave as quickly as possible. The temporal backblast also renders the incriminating photograph blank. The Doctor and Mel go for [[dinner]] before they continue their search for Hebe and learn that a group of people intend to drown out the Madison Square Garden rally with ''[[The Star-Spangled Banner]]'' and show tunes. | ||
