Doctor Who (1963) s21e13 Episode Script

(DOCTOR WHO THEME) Turlough? Turlough! Foolish boy.
Quickly! Let's get out of here.
No, Doctor.
This is madness.
The Daleks won't thank you.
They'll kill you.
I didn't quite tell you the truth.
I serve the Daleks.
I am a Dalek agent.
Exterminate the Doctor! Exterminate the Doctor! - Exterm - Wait! He is an enemy of the Daleks.
He must be exterminated.
He must be duplicated first.
Confirm with the Supreme Dalek.
Supreme Dalek confirms the order.
We must take the prisoner to the duplication chamber.
Proceed.
- Impulsive, aren't they? - They'd kill anybody, even if they need them.
How long before it's your turn? It's here.
- It isn't guarded.
- Be grateful.
- What is it? - The self-destruct chamber.
Right.
Let's get it open.
- What are you going to do? - Guess.
- Would anyone like some tea? - Please.
Colonel? No.
- How long will the ambulance be? - I don't know.
Tegan has severe concussion.
She needs medical attention.
She will receive medical attention as soon as it is available.
Thanks very much (!) Pity he didn't want any tea.
He'd have slept for hours.
We've got to get out of here.
- Could we rewire these? - I should think so.
Proceed.
- They know.
- What do we do? The Daleks will instruct us.
It is vital you complete your researches as soon as possible.
- I need a sample of the Movellan virus.
- It will be brought to you.
I will also need two Daleks for experimentation.
That is forbidden.
If I am to find a cure, I will need living Dalek tissue.
- We must consult the Supreme Dalek.
- Do so! But be quick! Already I grow impatient.
(STYLES) Where do we start? Lytton.
This is the Supreme Dalek.
The self-destruct chamber has been invaded.
The hostiles must be exterminated.
There isn't time.
Abandon the station.
You should have anticipated this.
The original plan was to snatch Davros and leave.
Nothing must endanger Davros.
The hostiles must be destroyed.
The Daleks must be obeyed! You must not touch the equipment.
Without the threat of death, you're quite powerless.
You will obey! - It is unwise to provoke the Daleks.
- Any response is deemed provocative.
I know the Daleks of old.
And Davros.
I assume he's about.
Questions only invite trouble.
- You mean it can get worse? - Yes.
The Daleks are very capable of devising painful and undignified ways of dying.
But not yet.
The Daleks need my brain waves intact, don't they? Oh! It's so light! - What's it made from? - Who knows? It defied every test I could think of.
It looksuhcomplicated.
The computer may contain the ignition sequence.
When you've primed your bomb, is it necessary that WE die with the station? None of us want to be martyrs.
Know a way out (?) The Time Corridor I mentioned.
It exists.
It's real.
We could use it to escape.
- What do you think? - You could check it out while I try and find a way into this thing.
Right.
You must co-operate.
You must lie down.
Why isn't Davros here? He'd want to see this.
- He is otherwise detained.
- So he IS here.
It does not concern you.
What sort of trouble are you in this time? Well (PROF LAIRD ) Not bad.
(TEGAN) But would it convince? If you didn't look too hard Perhaps.
The truth is, you'd have to be blind.
Quickly! - You can stop pretending.
- What? - You will board the Dalek ship.
- Tegan is sick.
Not for much longer.
One way or another, we're both dead.
A further recruit.
Initiate.
Welcome! Thanks a lot.
Zena? - Lt Mercer will have security clearance.
- That's a point.
Get him on the radio.
- The Daleks could trace the signal.
- Try a high-frequency range.
The Daleks can't monitor them all.
That's outside! Close the door! Dalek troopers! They must have seen us.
Take out that camera.
Build a barricade for protection.
Now there's nothing to lose, what can I make of you? Why do you want my duplicate? - That is of no concern.
- No? I'm rather attached to myself.
Remain silent.
I assume my brain waves are destined for Davros.
He must need them badly.
Daleks are the superior being.
We do not require assistance.
Superior? It took you aeons to ensnare the Tardis in the Time Corridor.
- It was but one trap.
- Hm.
Stien was more effective.
- A living, thinking being, not a machine.
- Please, Doctor! Stien is but an extension of Dalek technology.
- What? - He is a duplicate.
He is a product of our genetic engineering.
- Are you all duplicates? - Yes.
Interesting.
I wonder what happened to the real you.
(WHISPERING) The Time Corridor is through the airlock.
- What about the troopers? - We kill them.
And the Daleks? We must set the self-destruct device first.
- We go back.
- No! We go back! - Let's go.
- No.
I should stay.
- They'll kill you.
- Not if you get help quickly.
We need someone here to help the deception along.
You're wasting time.
Go.
Go! - Good luck.
- And you.
I'll be as quick as I can.
Can we blow a hole in the wall? Could.
Then we attack on two fronts.
My army continues to grow.
I'm making progress! - Have the soldiers been duplicated? - Yes.
Do tell me how it's done.
- No.
- Thought you wouldn't.
What about Tegan? - She is our prisoner.
- She's harmless.
You must release her.
Show him.
- Why? - A Doctor with no companions - would be rather incongruous.
- Why are you doing this? Your duplicates will return to Gallifrey.
At our command, you will assassinate members of the High Council.
No! - We must do something.
- They'll kill us.
- I have to do something.
- Think! The Daleks have a ship, so why break into the self-destruct chamber? Why not leave? - Let your friends blow themselves up.
- Tell me.
Because whatever the Daleks want is still on board.
Davros! You may not be able to help your friends but you could kill HIM.
We have been sent by the Supreme Dalek.
We are to assist in your research.
- I need Dalek tissue, not help.
- You may remove tissue from us.
Excellent.
In no way will my experiment harm.
Releasing locking clamp.
In fact, you will become considerably invigorated.
Perfect.
Reseal your casings.
Now.
Who do you obey? We obey Davros.
He is our Master! Excellent.
Now all I require is a sample of the Movellan virus.
Find out the cause of the delay.
Order a cylinder of Movellan virus to be transported from Earth.
I obey.
- Too late.
- He can't be far.
We could spend hours searching fruitlessly.
The place is crawling with Daleks.
I have to find him And you're coming with me.
(PIERCING SOUNDWAVES) - Nearly ready.
- The prisoner is secured.
You must proceed alone.
We have been summoned to other duties.
- Not staying to the bitter end? - When it is time to die, you will, in your agony, beg to pay homage to the Daleks.
You will wait outside.
They take themselves so seriously.
Provoking them only makes it worse for you.
Get on with it.
I can do without your pity.
Do you think I do this because I enj? That I do this out of chchchoice? DDDo I have a chchchoice? I have no choice.
Take the cylinder to Davros.
(WHISPERING) Davros is using Styles's laboratory.
We're nearly there! Why am I so excited? It's the last thing I'll ever do.
Perfect.
I have but one more request.
I require your co-operation a little longer.
A spirited but foolish reaction.
He will make an excellent slave.
And so will you.
One of the cylinders disappeared! Where is she? WHERE? She won't get far.
Aaaaagh! Hey! No! - Are you ready? - You ask it as though I have a choice.
Everyone has a choice.
It's in the C-Constitution, 25th Amendment.
- Didn't you go to school? - Maybe we didn't go to the same school.
- Which school did you go to? - I-I c-can't remember.
You remember the Amendments! What was the First? It's important that I know.
And that you remember.
Think! Search the area of your mind that's been shut off.
Resist before it's too late.
I must continue.
Resist! I must continue.
(HIGH-PITCHED BLEEP) - They're bypassing the mechanism! - I'm almost there.
Stand by.
That's it.
Aaaagh! - There's nothing you can do.
- I left them.
You did the right thing.
It's now up to you.
We have to get back to Earth.
Trust me! Just in time.
Your delay put the Dalek plan at risk.
We won.
That's all that matters.
The space station could have been destroyed.
I must report this to the Supreme Dalek.
- I'm sorry.
I tried.
- They're sending us to the Dalek ship.
- Get them into the Time Corridor.
- Aaagh! No! Aaaaaagh! Into the Time Corridor with her.
(HE MOANS IN PAIN) (STRAINED BREATHING) (HE GASPS WITH EFFORT) Relax, Doctor.
Don't fight it.
You'll only cause yourselfpain.
I-I know you you feel.
The pain will pass.
Relax.
Quickly! Recite the Amendments! - I must do my duty.
- You must resist.
You are destroying my mind.
The Daleks have secured the station.
It is safe.
Excellent.
- The Doctor has been taken prisoner.
- Better still.
He must be brought to me at once.
Hurry.
There is important work to do.
I have waited a long time for this.
Once the Doctor is exterminated, I shall build a new race of Daleks.
They will be even more deadly! And I, Davros, shall be their leader! This time we shall triumph! My Daleks shall once more become the Supreme Beings!
