On Srangor, the falling Straxus is saved part-way down the mountain by a flying drone, which then disappears with a TARDIS-like noise. He prepares to throw himself off again, but the drone returns to stop him.

The TARDIS lands in 1972 London, specifically [[107 Baker Street]] - a house owned by the Doctor. They meet Sally Armstrong, who has built the device in the instructions she received, and recognises both of them since the message included a captioned photo of the Doctor and Molly in Dunkirk. The Doctor knows nothing about this - as also mentioned in the message - and the device turns out to be a time-space portal, and it activates, allowing Daleks to emerge. The Doctor and Molly escape in a cab with Sally, doubling back to the Doctor's house to return to the TARDIS. Sally follows them and is killed by a Dalek just as she expresses a desire to travel with the Doctor. This death is a final straw; he can't face the idea of endless death in a war against the Daleks, and refuses to run when the Daleks catch up. He demands they kill him, but they hesitate. Molly knocks him out and drags him into the TARDIS; by the time he comes to, she is unsucessfully trying to take off. She talks him down from his despair and they become playful, Molly deciding that since they can't make to Gallifrey, they should go somewhere nice.

The Doctor takes them to [[Halalka]], a planet with a beautiful gravity-suspended [[waterfall]] in which tourists can swim. Oddly, Molly can't understand a local policeman with whom the Doctor speaks - the TARDIS is not translating for her. While they swim amongst local dolphin-like creatures, the policeman reports to [[Kotris]] that the Doctor and Molly are here, and one of the dolphin-creatures is compelled to attack. The Doctor is forced to kill it in self-defence, and notices a mind control device attached to it just as a Dalek saucer attacks.
