The Second Elder invites Susan to the conference hall and asks her to explain what happened with Veklin. She believes that Veklin was being controlled by a Sensorite and invites him to investigate the matter as he is the Guard, but he deems it a matter for Gallifrey. Susan and Ian prepare to leave the Sense Sphere and look for Veklin. They learn from the Investigator that there is an alien influence in the Guard's mind which reached him through the Interior, not having disconnected from it as the Investigator had ordered. Without any proof and believing that the Elders could also be under the influence, she does not plan to bring this to the Elders until the influence has been eradicated. To do this, she needs the delegates to stay.

Ian and the Investigator visit Veklin and advise her to invoke a clause in a local galactic treaty and insist that she is tried on the Sense Sphere, requiring Susan and Ian to remain as [[witness]]es. Veklin agrees and Susan informs the Second Elder, who considers it to be abuse of a technicality. Nonetheless, the Investigator recruits Susan to assist her in the investigation and takes her and Ian to the [[portal]] to the Interior.

Susan and Ian enter it and search through the chaos for the mind of the Guard. They enter and see that he is thinking about what he should have done during the attack to be successful. The Guard sees them and fires. They retreat to another mind and find themselves in a Sensorite's fears, namely the burning of the Sense Sphere. In another, they see a ruined city and determine that the alien influence is spreading these images to provoke fear and paranoia. Daleks attack the city.
