What's the matter? What is it? Are you ill? They're in there - making themselves! Duplicating! What? What are you talking about? I started this, opening the capsule! Lesterson! Don't try to stop me! What happened? They forget that I control them! I gave them life back again, and now I've taken it away! Finished! Stopped it! The Daleks Evil! Horrible! I know what I'm going to do! Laser torches! Melt them down! I'm going to melt the Daleks down to pools of metal! You won't Lesterson! Ah, do you think I care what you can do?! Go on, tell everybody I was responsible for Resno's death! I don't care! I'm going to wipe out the Daleks! Yes, tell everybody all about me! I'm still going to I'm going to wipe out the Daleks! Get me the Examiner.
Prison? Who put him there? But I've got to talk to him! I've got to, don't you understand?! How did you get there?! I cut off the power! We can store power.
We will soon have our own.
Own power?! Why was the capsule door closed? Own power?! Ahh! Seal off the capsule's secret entrance.
I obey.
Wait! No more than three Daleks to be seen together at any one time.
I obey.
We are not ready yet to teach these human beings the law of the Daleks.
You can help me! What's the matter? Where where's the Examiner?! I _?! The Examiner's in prison.
Ah, yes.
What's the matter with you? I forgot.
What are you running for? Hey! Did Lesterson come back? No.
Why is this human restricted? She's against the Daleks.
Afraid, are you? Nothing's going to happen to you if you behave.
The Daleks? Of course I'm afraid - and so should you be.
The Daleks are going to help us.
'Us' being the rebels, I suppose.
If you like.
And when you've won, the Daleks will just go back to being servants again? You're bigger fools than I thought.
We are your servants.
While it suits you.
You'll see.
In! you want me to stay with her? Yes.
You may have to help Valmar.
He'll be here in a minute to fix up the new Dalek cower power cable.
Right.
When will the work be completed? What is this cable you Daleks are laying, anyway? Daleks operate on static electricity.
Static! Is that possible? To create static, the Daleks need a complete cable circuit.
I see.
You convert our electricity into your own power.
That is correct.
When will the human being complete the work? He'll be here.
It's easier now.
There's no-one to interfere with our plans.
Do you have to do that? I'm afraid you'll find these locks are foolproof.
I wonder how they're converting the power? Wha What are you talking about? The Daleks - they're powered by static electricity.
It's like blood to them - a constant life-stream.
Static isn't workable! It is to the Daleks.
They've conquered static, just as they've conquered anti-magnetics.
I'm not going to listen to any more of this nonsense.
I don't seem to be able to hit the right note.
Do you have any more water? I hope not.
No.
Then I shall have to get some.
You can't! But it's important! It's desperately important! Well, Bragen gave orders.
Just get out of my way! Ah! Examiner! The Daleks! Yes? They're duplicating! I've seen them! They've got their own power now! I I can't stop them! Take him to Bragen.
Oh! Oh! Oh! I say.
I say, do you think we might have a little more water? Is that all you can say? Lesterson fights his way down here to speak to you and all you can do is demand more water?! Get away from the door.
Sorry about that outburst.
I thought it might help the situation.
Nearly Nearly What's this? He tried to break in and speak with the Examiner.
What is the Dalek doing?! I thought you knew.
Something to do with the emergency power supply.
Ah, no! It's it's a trick! I didn't ask for it! Lesterson, I've had reports.
What are you doing?! Laying the new emergency power supply as you ordered, master.
It it it's a lie! I've had reports of your incomprehensible behaviour.
Yes.
Yes, I I can explain - if you'll get rid of that! Finish now.
I am your servant.
Where is the Governor?! At the perimeter.
Why? Call him! Get him back here as quickly as possible! We're all in terrible danger! The Examiner was right! Right all the time! Don't listen to anything she has to say! Come along now.
She's in league with the Daleks! Now, now, now, now.
Please, Lesterson.
Let's just take things calmly, you're not well.
I'm perfectly well! Please Lesterson, please.
Now, you ought to be in hospital.
You promised me you'd report there.
I promised nothing of the kind! Don't you remember? Never mind.
I understand.
Hmm.
Pity.
It's probably only temporary.
You're trying to say I'm mad! No.
No, not mad.
No.
Of course not.
No.
But, I tell you, I saw the Daleks! They were duplicating! I saw it! I swear to you! He suddenly started saying these things in the lab.
I'm I'm afraid, he's Oh, no! No! Keep him under restraint.
Oh, will nobody listen to me?! Pass me that small screwdriver.
I can't.
My hands are tied.
Anyway, I wouldn't help you, even if I could.
OK.
More? I can't handle them.
This is the lot.
Listen.
The Dalek's gone now.
That doesn't mean you can start talking.
Oh, leave her alone, Kebble.
She isn't doing any harm.
You think you're very tough don't you, pushing a girl around.
I'd like to see you come up against a real man.
Like who? Like Ben, for instance.
Don't worry about him.
We've got him safely stowed away.
You've got Ben? He's sleeping off a slight fall.
I told you to leave her alone.
Your name's Valmar, isn't it? That's it.
You want the Daleks to fight the Governor.
But don't you see? They'll turn on you, too.
What? Three big pepper pots? One of them did kill Resno.
You saw what the Dalek did to that sheet of metal.
And that's just the beginning.
Don't listen to her.
She's giving you the Examiner's line.
He isn't the Examiner.
We're just travellers.
Landed here by accident.
The Doctor - that's the man you think is the Examiner - found the real Examiner dead, and picked up his papers.
This Doctor of yours.
He knows something about the Daleks? He tried to warn everyone.
It's the only reason we stayed here.
When will the work be completed? I don't know.
I'll need a new junction box like this one.
You've all underestimated these Daleks.
Better brains than us, I suppose.
I only know what the Doctor has told me - he says they're capable of exterminating whole nations.
Perhaps, but what would they want to kill us for - after we've taken over.
We're friendly with the Daleks.
But, don't you see? Human beings can't be friends with Daleks.
They don't have friends.
I don't see why not.
It's a kind of hatred for anything unlike themselves.
They think they're superior.
The girl's got something.
You want to tell Janley? You're welcome! Janley! She'll betray the lot of you, if she gets the chance.
The other junction box is outside.
Thank you.
Talk too much, don't you? Didn't you know he was soft on Janley? All right, all right, I'm just putting her straight.
More slack on the cables.
What are all these cables lying about? New emergency power supply.
Who's idea was that? What do you want to know for? What do I?! Don't you know I'm the Governor? Where are you from? The interior, sir.
The interior? Why are you carrying a gun? I'm a Squad Leader in Bragen's guard, sir.
Oh, I see.
Bragen's guard, eh? All right, carry on.
Cut that row out, you two! Stop that.
Oh! Come on.
Wait a minute! We don't want him trying it, although he seemed a bit tone deaf to me.
Well, Bragen - these trips are becoming more and more demanding.
I didn't expect you, Governor.
Ah, I had as much as I could stand.
Well? What's been happening here? One moment.
I asked you a question, man.
I heard you.
Look, your work can wait.
You can hand over to me tomorrow.
I want to hear about the Examiner.
The Examiner is at present in jail.
In jail? That's rather dangerous isn't it? Who put him there? I did.
You did? In heaven's sake, why? He's an impostor, Governor.
Possibly a murderer as well.
We have just discovered the body of the real Examiner in the mercury swamp.
I hope you're sure of your facts, Bragen.
Quite sure.
This could have far-reaching consequences.
As far as I am concerned, there's nothing more to be said.
So if there's nothing further Nothing further! Who the devil do you think you're talking to? Stand up when you're speaking to me man! I prefer to remain seated.
Do you now?! We'll soon see about that.
Guards! Take this man out of my office.
Did you hear what I said? That's an order! You forget, my dear Hensell.
They're not your guards - they're mine.
I am the Governor! No.
Not now.
I am.
Oh, I see.
Your guards, eh? Yes, Quinn warned me about your guards, but we all took them too lightly, didn't we? But we'll soon change that.
You imbecile! How long do you think your handful of guards can hang out when the people hear that I am being kept a prisoner in my own capital?! The people will do exactly as they are told, Hensell.
It will, of course, be easier for them if you co-operate with us.
Wait there.
Guards, dismissed.
So Bragen, you want my co-operation, do you? It would save bloodshed.
I might even let you keep the title of Governor.
Might you now?! I'll tell you what you will do.
You'll order your guards to disarm and place yourself under arrest immediately! So you reject my offer? I thought it a generous one in the circumstances.
What circumstances? Look at this.
What is it? The reason that the colony is now mine.
Is it a weapon of some kind? I'll arrange a demonstration for you.
Do you still refuse my offer? I will not be intimidated.
Of course not.
In character to the last, Hensell.
Kill him! Why do human beings kill human beings? Get on with your work! Yes, master.
I obey.
Yes, obey me! From now on, I will have complete obedience from everyone! I'll have to check the cable circuit now.
Otherwise, it's just as you asked for.
Very well.
Why can't you carry on with the power you're drawing from the colony? Why go to all this trouble? Until now, we have had to recharge from the colony supply.
With static power, the Daleks will be twice as useful.
Valmar, quick! What's the matter? The Governor's back.
What about the girl? Leave her.
I will follow you.
What for? I am your servant.
Come on.
An electrical circuit of their own supplying static electricity! I wonder how much longer we've got? I didn't realise they'd have a circuit of their own.
Doctor, look out! Are you all right? Well done! Who was the man who went outside just now? Valmar.
He's been working for the Daleks.
On their static power supply.
Doctor, they've got Ben.
Yes, I know.
He ran away so that I could Oh well, it's a long story, but don't worry.
That boy can take care of himself! Did you hear that? That won't help.
Get out! All of you! What about you?! But Doctor! Oh Go! Have they escaped? Yes, return to capsule and report.
I obey.
We are to wait here until the human beings fight among themselves.
Then we will strike.
And exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! The one man who could have saved us.
Don't worry, the people will follow you, too.
Maybe.
But there wasn't any maybe about Hensell.
He was old-fashioned.
Single-minded, yes, but he's done a lot of wonderful work for this colony.
Events turned out against him, that's all.
But why? Why was he killed? I can answer that.
He wanted to destroy the Daleks, so one of them killed him.
Now, I'm declaring martial law.
You will be returned to prison, and properly guarded this time.
Martial law! What good do you think that will do against the Daleks? The Daleks will do as I tell them.
We shall see, shan't we.
Take them away.
Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Orders received.
Exterminate all humans! Exterminate all humans! Exterminate! Annihilate! Destroy! Daleks conquer and destroy! Daleks conquer and destroy! Daleks conquer and destroy! Daleks conquer and destroy! Daleks conquer and destroy! Daleks conquer and destroy!
