The final shuttle leaves the ''Theseus'', but the proximity alarm alerts them to a Dalek ship materialising ahead. Not detecting any Time Lord life signs aboard, the Daleks destroy the shuttle.
The final shuttle leaves the ''Theseus'', but the proximity alarm alerts them to a Dalek ship materialising ahead. Not detecting any Time Lord life signs aboard, the Daleks destroy the shuttle.


To stop the Daleks from destroying any more escape shuttles, the Doctor decides to give himself up in order to buy them time to escape. He contacts the Dalek ship and invites them to come for him, having rerouted the transmission signal to make them think that he is at the bridge so that he and the Maguires can find a way to escape. The Daleks soon locate them, but the trio are saved by [[Bliss (The Starship of Theseus)|Bliss]], a [[scientist]] with a [[regression weapon]] taken from a dead trooper. She is leading a group of people which includes Jefferson, who has no memory of having met the Doctor before. The Doctor tells them that they will escape on one of the Dalek timeships.

The Squad Leader reaches the bridge and reports to the Dalek ship that it is empty. However, there has been no activity in the Vortex and the Doctor must still be aboard.
