Inside [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], the [[Fifth Doctor]] has set coordinates for [[Earth]], telling [[Turlough]] he has promised [[Tegan]] to show her some of her planet's future.

Meanwhile, the sea base sends out an unmanned probe to check on the identified reading, just to be sure. Taking note of the probe, Scibus is concerned that they will be detected, but Icthar sends a [[Myrka]], a large aquatic reptile with the ability to electrocute other organisms that the Silurians control, against it; he assures Scibus that the creature will destroy the probe before they are detected. They then descend to a secret underwater berth where their cousin-species, the [[Sea Devil]]s, have long been in hibernation. | Meanwhile, the sea base sends out an unmanned probe to check on the identified reading, just to be sure.
