The Cyberman goes to take another body, but as he leaves, Polly witnesses the Cyberman's exit. She screams, which alerts the Doctor and the others. Polly insists it was a Cyberman, but Hobson does not believe her due to lack of evidence. He sends guards out to scour the base for any signs. Hobson begins to suspect that the situation might be down to the presence of the Doctor and his friends as the situation has only escalated since their arrival. [[File:Moonbase-2 Doctor Polly Ben science equipment.jpeg|thumb|The Doctor begins work using the medical bay's equipment.]]Ben says they are more than happy to leave, but the Doctor says they have to stay as he feels he should stay and protect the base from the evils of the universe. Hobson gives the Doctor 24 hours to sort out the situation or else he is to leave the Moonbase. Left alone, the Doctor says that he wants to analyse everything in the Moonbase. When asked if he is a medical doctor, he says he took a medical degree in [[Glasgow]] in [[1888]] under [[Joseph Lister]]. | The Cyberman goes to take another body, but as he leaves, Polly witnesses the Cyberman's exit.

Back in the control room, Hobson notices that the Gravitron is becoming faulty and is stopping them from being able to control the [[hurricane]] on Earth. The Commander of the Space Control contacts them and states that it is of the utmost importance that they protect mainland America from this hurricane. Hobson sets about testing every part of the centre. The Doctor enters and begins to take samples from the crew as they go about their work. They begin to get frustrated as they find nothing wrong. | Back in the control room, Hobson notices that the Gravitron is becoming faulty and is stopping them from being able to control the [[hurricane]] on Earth.

In the control room, one of the engineers discovers a fault with one of the antennae. Hobson asks when it went awry and is told it tallies with the Doctor's arrival. This makes him more convinced about the Doctor and his friends, and he goes to kick them off the Moonbase. As he does he is told by Ben that another person has been taken from the sick bay. | In the control room, one of the engineers discovers a fault with one of the [[antennae]].

In the control room, the crew attempt to contact the engineers who went out to fix the aerial. There is no response. Their activity is disrupted by Hobson leading in the Cybermen. They explain that they are to take over the Gravitron to destroy the Earth so as to eliminate any danger. They also explain that they gained access to the Moonbase under the ground. | In the control room, the crew attempt to contact the engineers who went out to fix the [[aerial]]. There is no response.

Back in the sick bay, Jamie wakes up, and the trio talk about how to get rid of the Cybermen. Ben speculates about radiation whilst Jamie suggests holy water. Polly takes Jamie's idea and thinks about how [[nail varnish]] dissolves [[plastic]] and that the Cybermen's control panel seems to be made of plastic. Ben and Polly mix together a number of solvents and place them in a spray. The trio leave armed with their corrosive liquid. | Back in the sick bay, Jamie wakes up, and the trio talk about how to get rid of the Cybermen.

In the control room, Hobson is using the tannoy to try to reason with Evans but to no avail. They decide to rush him but are stopped by the Cybermen communicating with them, saying that the Moonbase is now under their control. They fire a laser into the side of the Moonbase, sucking the [[oxygen]] out. As the crew begin to suffocate, Hobson and Benoit fix the hole using a coffee tray. Amongst the chaos, the Doctor notices that Evans has collapsed and moves him from the control room. To Hobson and the Doctor's shock, another Cybership lands and a weapon is unloaded from it. The crew dive for cover, but the Doctor stoically stands his ground. As they fire, the laser is deflected from the gravitational force of the Gravitron. This success gives the Doctor an idea. He asks if the Gravitron can be dipped so low it could have a bearing on the surface of the Moon. Benoit and Hobson say it has never been tried, but they attempt it. With a few minor adjustments to the machine, it is achieved, which sends the Cybermen and their ships floating off into space. Before Hobson has a chance to thank the Doctor, he and his companions have disappeared. | In the control room, Hobson is using the tannoy to try to reason with Evans but to no avail.

The Doctor. Ben, Polly and Jamie have put their space suits back on and return to the moon's surface and back to the TARDIS, they see something overhead with Polly wondering if it is the Cyberman's ship, whilst the Doctor speculates that this will not be the last they see of the Cybermen. Once back at in the TARDIS, the Doctor is curious to see what becomes of the Moonbase and elects to use his time scanner to see its future. Before he gets a chance to do this, Polly, now stricken with fear, points out that a large claw has emerged on the scanner. | The Doctor.
