Yes, I thought so.
Atropa Belladonna
Deadly Nightshade!
KIDNAP
What is it Ian?
We must find him.
Are you alright?
Yes.
Lean on me.
Keep away! Keep away!
Grandfather!
He's unconscious.
Here, help me to get him out of here.
Oh, look at the state he's in!
No, don't worry about that, collect up his things.
We don't want to hang around here.
It's going away.
Ian! Ian, what do you think this is?
I dunno,
part of an old lighting system I suppose.
Don't worry about that now, let's get him out of here.
Before that thing comes back.
Can't just give up!
You know the aqueduct, surely you can help them in some way!
I regret it is impossible.
You have no conception of what extreme sound does to us.
It stuns the brain and paralyses the nerves.
And in the darkness we are helpless anyway,
our warriors would be more of a hindrance than a help.
Is there no hope for them then?
Let us talk of your companion, the man John.
The senior Scientist tells me that he is making excellent progress.
The final treatment will given today.
Thank you.
You are sad for the friends you have lost.
Rejoice for the friend who is being returned to you.
Scientist, you will report to me on your progress.
I will sir.
Those poor people.
Grandfather just look at this coat, it's ruined.
Those look like claw marks. Strange that they didn't reach the skin.
Yeah, strange indeed when you realise
that I was at the mercy of that creature!
It was so dark in there it was invisible and it knocked me to the ground.
Are you sure you didn't see it?
No-no-no, something hit me under
the heart and it was most unpleasant.
It's a good thing I'd sent you that antidote.
Oh, we...
Otherwise I'd've been in a much state much worse state than I was.
We didn't get the antidote,
I had to go all the way back to the laboratory and get some more.
What?!
Yes, surrounded by enemies.
Yes true, true.
That water, and those monsters in there.
And now it appears that there's someone
among the Sensorites that bear us ill will.
That's two separate enemies.
Don't you mean three?
No-no-no, don't mistake me.
The water and the monsters are distinctly connected,
but I've more or less solved that problem.
But this Sensorite who is against us is a much greater danger.
Now I suggest that we go back and try to find out which one it is.
Treachery...
He keeps on saying the same things.
A plot...I must warn you.
I'm sure he's discovered something or he's overheard something and he's trying to tell us.
Yes, tell you...
warn you...
You see?
It must be illusion. Our society is based upon trust;
treason or secret plotting is impossible.
That's rather a sweeping statement.
But why should a Sensorite make any secret plans against anyone?
We have the perfect society, all are contented.
Some people always want more than others.
That is a human quality, surely.
Perhaps. Rest quietly now John, it won't be long.
You were trying to explain something to me earlier.
We discovered long ago that in our brains there were many different compartments.
When fear and alarm is at work, that section becomes open,
a veil is lifted, do you understand.
Yes.
That is what has happened to the man John, but the veil will not lower itself.
Thus he is constantly afraid, even when he's at peace.
When he's asleep for example; the body says one thing, the brain the other -
thus his condition. Utter confusion.
And this treatment you're giving him is in order to close down that veil?
Yes. Not permanently of course, or he would step into danger without concern,
the veil must function normally again.
It's rather like an eyelid isn't it? Oh, these shutters over my eyes.
Hah, yes. To see all the time is not a good thing. Now we must begin.
Yes.
I'll be here all the time John.
Carol.
Yes, that's right.
I must tell you,
but it's so difficult...
Soon you'll be able to tell me all you've found out.
There is no mistake City Administrator, I saw the Doctor and the other two leave the aqueduct.
I heard them over...over...t-talking. He too is suspicious.
The creature John is nearly cured, he too can speak against me.
We are nearly surrounded by our enemies.
You will be uncovered as a traitor and a criminal.
Silence!
What are we to do?
These Earth creature are working to destroy the Sensorite nation.
Their pleasant smiles conceal sharp teeth. Their soft words conceal hidden threats.
Please don't listen.
And who opposes them? These timid creatures,
like this second Elder whose sash I wear.
Thief!
Weakling! Betrayer of our people! coward!
I should imprison you in some room wherein no light can shine and fill that room with noise!
Oh...do it then. Finish with me.
Not yet. Remember, I hold your family group.
First you shall do something for me.
Summon the senior Warrior with your mind-transmitter.
Tell him to bring the firing key of the disintegrator
and meet you in the forecourt of the palace.
No.
Remember your family group.
Very well.
I shall be listening.
Stand over over him, stun him if he sends his mind to anyone other than the senior warrior.
Now send this thought:
Senior Warrior, this is the Second Elder...
Go on, send it!
Good!
He's answering! Tell him to bring the firing key and meet you in the courtyard of the Palace of the Elders.
That is enough.
I shall keep the appointment you have made.
The senior Warrior shall know me by the sash I wear - your sash!
Guard him well.
Why do you listen to him, why do you follow him?
He will not betray our people, nor surrender our planet!
He will bring us all down, all of us.
Be silent!
All of us!
Well you've been exerting yourself boy, naturally you're weak.
He can rest now can't he Grandfather? We'll force him to.
I wish you two'd stop fussing over me.
Now, now, now, you must do as you are told and that is that!
Isn't that one of the Elders?
Oh that's the second Elder, he's only got one sash.
Now take it easy, I want a word with him.
I say, you sir! Sir, I'd like a word with you...
It's a funny place down here isn't it?
What about up there? I wonder how Barbara's getting on?
Mm, I wish she were down here with us.
I wish were were up there in the TARDIS and away from here. Still, I know what you mean.
Hey, why don't we ask the first Elder
if Barbara can come down and join us here?
Yes!
Hmph! Most extraordinary, he ran away from me!
hat must have looked very funny. Hehehe.
Flip-flap, flip-flap...
I assure you he was very mobile, my child!
Come along, let's get into the first Elder's room. Come along...
Why have you not retied his hands?
Now... Now I have the power!
Stop him you fool!
He has broken it!
The second Elder is dead!
The only other firing key is in the possession the first Elder.
Then we shall have to give up.
We must leave the city, hide in the mountains!
No-no, don't be silly.
The death of the second Elder can help us, not condemn us.
We must act quickly, you know the man called the Doctor?
Yes.
You can describe him?
Yes.
Good! Then I will outline my plan to you.
Yes I have asked questions. The first supply of the antidote which you sent, Doctor,
was intercepted by my second Elder; my advisor.
And he has since disappeared.
Well we saw him in the courtyard.
His behaviour is a mystery.
Yes, strange indeed sir. I tried to talk to him and he ran away.
Yes, you still won't accept that he's done something bad.
I cannot. I selected him for office,
but it is not pride which make me ...makes me defend my choice.
I know that Sensorite, I trust him.
And yet you can't explain his actions.
A mystery does not mean that he is guilty.
For the Doctor.
My dear sir, that's most civil of you!
I ruined my jacket down in the aqueduct, but of course I have others on my ship.
Haha, thank you.
Very smart.
Beau Brummell always said I look better in a cloak!
The city Administrator wishes to speak?
Urgently sir. A story has been put before me that you should hear.
Now?
It concerns the second Elder and these Earth creatures.
Very well.
Enter.
Tell your story.
Sir, the second Elder is dead.
He was killed in the courtyard. I saw the man who killed him.
The man?
Yes sir. It was the man called the Doctor.
Well that's not true!
The senior Warrior here has evidence. Speak!
I met the second Elder in the courtyard as he asked me to.
I gave him the firing k-key of the disintegrator as he asked me to.
Then I saw the Doctor go after the second Elder calling him.
Yes, I did that, but I didn't kill him.
I saw you! You wrestled for possession of the firing key.
There is the firing key, bent as though in a struggle.
And finally, when the second Elder resisted,
you took an object from inside your coat
and struck him down and killed him!
This is a grave charge.
But obviously untrue sir.
Why?
How did you recognise the Doctor?
His hair is different.
Yes...
So are his clothes.
Oh yes, his clothes.
You say you saw him take an object from his pocket?
Yes.
You could see quite clearly, you were sure it was from his coat pocket?
I tell you yes! All the Sensorites know the Doctor by his...
The Doctor's coat is outside the aqueduct, you are lying!
Then...then it...it was a cloak he was wearing!
Yes it was, I'm sure of it now - it was a cloak!
I have just presented the Doctor with that cloak.
Your story is a tissue of lies,
remove him!
I shall interview you myself.
Sir, you must forgive his wild accusation, but I felt his story should be brought before you.
Oh, you acted correctly. What can have possessed my advisor?
The second Elder, sir, was always opposed to our visitors.
P-perhaps he stole the firing key inorder to attack them with the disintegrator?
I bet he stole our antidote too!
He was our enemy.
A sad matter, but since he has deceived us my sympathies should not be wasted.
As to his replacement...
I have his sash of office here so that you may choose an advisor immediately.
Perhaps he ought not to look further than this room?
Yes! If he thought he got promotion because of us, he'd be a useful ally.
Just what I was thinking.
Yes, of course sir, we have no wish to interfere in your affairs,
but the er, city Administrator seems to have all the qualifications.
Well, what do you say? Can you accept such power?
My only ambition is to serve the Sensorite nation.
Then accept this sash.
I make you my advisor, from now on you will be known as the second Elder,
second only on the Sense-Sphere to me. And once this order has been made,
only a betrayal of trust can set it aside.
My new advisor and I have much to discuss. You will excuse us?
Certainly sir. My companions and I will pay a visit to the man John and note his progress.
Oh, you were going to ask about Barbara.
I don't think this is quite the moment. I'll ask later.
Oh, and er, congratulations.
When you address one of the Elders you call him sir!
Now we shall know.
John? John?
Such a headache...
That will go quickly.
It's easing now.
Carol.
You're crying.
I'm alright, really I am. It's just that I haven't seen you smile for so long.
But we can't have you crying can we?
I'm alright now, I'm alright. That pain's gone quite suddenly.
Was it awful?
All that matters is how you are now.
What have I been like all this time?
Don't you remember?
Some things. But mostly there seems a sort of grey cloud.
I just remember that...
...that it seems a very long time.
Yes. Oh John, I can't tell you how I feel. How glad.
It is indeed a time of happiness for both of you.
Oh, this is the Scientist who cured you.
Then I have a lot to thank you for.
What do you ask for?
Oh, we have a custom of shaking hands with people in friendship.
Then... I accept.
Well, well, what a happy scene, mm!
Do you remember us?
I remember you distinctly.
Well I'm Ian, and this is the Doctor, Susan's Grandfather.
I'm glad to see you don't bear a grudge against the Sensorites for the past.
All that matters now is the present.
Splendid!
Now sir, the antidote. I wonder if you are aware, mm...
I remember another girl.
Oh, that's Barbara, we both found you. She's up in the spaceship.
Oh I see.
John, all the time you were ill you were trying to warn us of something.
Mm, there was a Sensorite here who was dangerous.
I must try and remember what happened.
I know there was a plot.
That's right, someone was plotting against you.
And this Sensorite, can you identify him?
No.
Is he in this room?
No.
There was something particularly odd about his clothes I remember,
but exactly what...
Yes, it must have been the Sensorite who has just died.
Yes I suppose it must.
The first Elder wishes to talk to the Doctor. You will inform him!
Alright!
He's not very friendly.
Well he's only just become second Elder, I should think he's trying out his new authority.
I wouldn't like to cross him.
And what is this little collection of things here?
Left behind by the humans that were killed in the spaceship explosion. I see.
Oh look at these Doctor, family snapshots. Hah! Look.
Yes, now just a moment, this is important.
This is a rough plan of the aqueduct.
One of the human beings was very interested in the aqueduct.
Is that so?
Grandfather, the first Elder wants to talk to you.
Oh yes, I have a couple of questions for him.
This is only a sketch, I can let you have a plan in detail if you wish.
Mm, very valuable, very valuable.
The city Administrator can have no objection.
The city Administrator!
Of course! What about him? Mm? What about him?
John, you know you said there was something odd about the Sensorite? W-was it his collar?
Collar, yes! That was it!
Oh you see, the city Administrator - he was our enemy!
What, the one who's just been made second Elder?
Yes! When John was ill he must have given himself away.
Yes,
he was certainly pretty odd with me.
If this is true what you say Susan, then there's trouble ahead for us.
That Sensorite has power now.
Yes, and the worst of it is, we gave him the power.
You were not to know that the Doctor had changed his coat.
I managed your escape from prison and that is all that matters.
I am grateful, but what use am I now?
I still have a task for you.
You are accomplished in mechanical matters?
Yes, but what do you want me to do?
Can you remove the mechanisms from these,
but leave them looking perfect from the outside?
Yes.
Then do it!
It's no use telling him stories about the second Elder, Doctor,
we've got to give him proof.
Yes, I quite agree.
And the only way to get that proof is to go back into the aqueduct.
What about Susan?
Look, why don't you ask the first Elder if we can have Barbara down here again?
A good idea!
Gentlemen, be seated.
Yes sir, thank you.
Well sir, the Doctor and I have discussed this poison business,
and we are convinced that your water supply is being deliberately poisoned.
What we propose to do sir, is to go down into the aqueduct,
find your enemies and stop them.
Very well, but you will take light with you, and such arms as we can provide.
Thank you.
We're making progress.
Barbara.
I wonder sir, could I ask you a small favour?
Ask it.
Er, we have a companion, a young lady on the ship.
Er, is it possible for her to be brought down here in the sense-Sphere, mm?
It will be arranged.
Oh, splendid sir, splendid!
I have brought the weapons sir.
Ah, thank you Warrior.
Instruct them as to their use.
It is done. I have arranged that the two useless weapons be delivered to the humans.
Hide yourself.
What have you there?
A map of the aqueduct sir. The Doctor asked for it.
Give it to me, I will deliver it. Return to your duties.
Thank you sir.
The plan of the aqueduct.
Quickly, change some of the routes on this,
and see that the messenger delivers it to the Doctor.
It shall be done.
Now,
not only shall they go down into the aqueduct with useless armaments,
but they will be hopelessly lost as well!
Very simple to use Doctor.
Yeah...er, careful!
The range is considerable. The ray paralyses up to a distance of thirty yards.
Yes, yes, splendid. And remember dear boy, that I will be standing nearly next to you!
I have never liked weapons at any time, however they're handy little things.
Tell me, how long does this paralysis last?
One hour.
Fine, fine. Well these weapons are splendid, sir.
Without a doubt they'll help us to make success.
And yet I do not envy you your adventure. I still wish I could dissuade you.
Yes, and that brings me to another problem, my Granddaughter Susan.
She's bound to want to come with us.
I don't think she ought to Doctor.
No. I agree with you my boy, we must go and not tell her, and avoid any arguments.
I wonder sir, would you mind keeping a small secret until we're well and truly away?
Very well.
Yes, thank you. After all, there's no danger now we have these protectors.
And I'm sure we can settle our little business in an hour or two.
Ah, the map of the aqueduct.
Oh, excellent sir, excellent!
Well... Let's go and make an enemy, Doctor.
Now, you're quite sure you're up to it?
Quite.
Splendid, lead the way. Sir.
They are brave people sir.
We will not regret having known them.
I am glad they were innocent of killing the second Elder, sir.
Yes, I am anxious about that.
You realise that if they did not kill my advisor...
...then he must have been killed by a Sensorite?
But who would do such a thing?
Who, yes.
But also I ask myself;
why was it done?
I've never felt so hungry.
Oh won't it be wonderful when we get back to the Earth, John?
How I long for a thick, juicy steak!
Mm, well you'll have to make do with a small juicy fruit!
I wonder where they're up to, where they've gone to?
I wonder what they're talking about for all this time?
Oh, well I expect they're arranging for our return into the spaceship.
I think I'll go over to the Palace of the Elders and try and hurry them up.
Oh, would you Carol? Thank you.
Tell them I'm starving.
Alright.
John I... I'm so happy that you're better now,
so's Carol.
Well you can see that for yourself.
Mm, she's had a bad time.
You know, I have a feeling that we'll both give up space travelling when we get back to Earth.
Oh and get married?
Mm, she's all I really care about.
Come on, let's eat. I'm tired of waiting.
