His help at this point however, was mainly confined to hacking other computers and displaying information on alien life forms. He momentarily revealed his dark side to [[Clyde Langer]], presumably because he realised he might get help from the [[Slitheen]]. ([[SJA]]:'' [[Revenge of the Slitheen]]'') | ||

In this scheme, Mr Smith vitally linked together all the world's phone networks to dial the number of [[Superphone|Martha Jones' phone]] aboard the TARDIS. Mr Smith's efforts were relayed to Torchwood, whose [[rift manipulator]] greatly amplified his signal. The power needed to amplify its phone call damaged the computer. Nevertheless, he was able to determine the site of the Doctor's TARDIS landing, prompting Sarah Jane to leave Luke in Mr Smith's care while she rendezvoused with the Time Lord. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Stolen Earth]]'') Later, Mr Smith received the TARDIS base numerals from [[K9 Mark IV|K9]] and linked with the TARDIS and Torchwood Rift, allowing the Doctor to tow the planet back to its proper place in space and time.

His on screen logo changed to a more fluid graphic and he developed a sense of humour. ([[SJA]]: ''[[The Last Sontaran]]'') Mr Smith told the team more about the [[Pied Piper]] including that he came from the [[Jeggorabax Cluster]], but he needed more information so asked [[Sarah Jane]] to go to the [[Pharos Institute]] to collect a part of the meteorite.

Mr Smith received a distress signal and video from a [[Judoon]] in a ship crashing to Earth. He told the gang where the ship was. Later on. Sarah Jane, possessed by [[Androvax]], activated Mr Smith's self-destruct program, to destroy all of Bannerman Road in sixty seconds.

([[SJA]]: ''[[Mona Lisa's Revenge]]'') When the [[Slitheen-Blathereen family|Slitheen-Blathereen]] gave Sarah Jane [[Rakweed]], she had Mr Smith to scan it. He found it harmless, but the morning after, the weed mutated and attacked [[Luke Smith|Luke]]. When the spores threatened him and Sarah Jane, Mr Smith used his cooling air vents to suck them away. Mr Smith monitored Luke's condition during the crisis. When Clyde, Rani and K9 discovered how to stop the Rakweed, K9 sent Mr Smith the frequency level required to sound the alarm bell sound across London (1421.09 Hertz). He did this again when the two Blathereen attacked, causing the Rakweed in their stomachs to be destroyed, creating a build-up of methane gas which caused them to explode all over everyone, including Mr Smith.

He was initially frightened of [[Sky Smith]] because of her tendency to blow up electrical devices such as him.

After he had helped Sky work out how to break the curse on Sarah and Clyde, he teleported the totem pole into the attic, where Clyde destroyed it, lifting the curse.

Mr Smith was pleased that K9 did not accompany Luke when he returned from university. He told Sarah Jane the real [[Joseph Serf]] had died in a skiing accident in 2007 and analysed a [[Serf Board]] with Clyde and Rani. They found out that it was a simple, low standard laptop. Luke used K9's whistle to speak to Mr Smith in Morse code, alerting Clyde and Rani to get the pen [[John Harrison]] was using to torture the [[Skullion]]s. Luke and Sky took control of Serf whilst Sarah Jane and Adriana took the Skullions to the roof of the building. Mr Smith had alerted the Skullion species to send a spaceship to Earth to pick up the Skullions. | Mr Smith was pleased that K9 did not accompany Luke when he returned from university.

When K9 returned to Bannerman Road, Mr Smith entered into a deep rivalry with him, the two constantly trying to one-up each other in the technical support, and referring to each other as "the dog" and "that computer" ([[SJA]]: ''[[The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith]]'' et al). However, when it appeared K9 was broken, Mr Smith refrained from calling him a dog and even expressed concern. Before K9 left with Luke for [[Oxford University]], Mr Smith told K9 that he could call him if needed, which K9 took to mean he would miss him. ([[SJA]]: ''[[The Nightmare Man]]'') However when around others he still maintained his animosity for "the dog" ([[SJA]]: ''[[Sarah Jane's Alien Files episode 3]]'', ''[[Sarah Jane's Alien Files episode 4]]'').
