(Carol wanders over to the Doctor and Ian.) (Supporting John, she walks over to the cabin at the end of the corridor just as Ian walks through followed by the Sensorites on the far side. A special area has been prepared for you on the sense-Sphere. And they caused us a fearful affliction. He stands between the Sensorites and Barbara as they begin to advance.) IAN: Barbara! Otherwise it confuses the brain and leaves it wide open to an attack by the Sensorites. RICHMOND: The Sensorites are in the ship now. SUSAN: To go down with them to their planet. Why have the Sensorites done this? [SCENE_BREAK]

A: the TARDIS; Q: Where do the Doctor, Ian, Barbara and Susan arrive on board a spaceship? A: the ship's human crew; Q: Who is suffering from telepathic interference from the Sensorites? A: an attack; Q: What do the aliens fear from the humans? A: the Sense Sphere; Q: Where is the Sensorites' planet? A: deliberate poisoning; Q: What is the cause of the illness that the Sensorites and Ian have succumbed to? A: another threat; Q: What does the political manoeuvring of the Sensorite City Administrator pose to the TARDIS crew? A: the TARDIS crew; Q: Who is the Sensorite City Administrator trying to discredit and implicate? Summary: The Doctor, Ian, Barbara and Susan arrive in the TARDIS on board aspaceship. Their initial concern is for the ship's human crew, who are suffering from telepathic interference from the Sensorites, but Susan communicates with the Sensorites and finds the aliens fear an attack by the humans and are just defending themselves. Travelling to the Sense Sphere (the Sensorites' planet) the Doctor seeks to cure an illness to which the Sensorites and Ian have succumbed, but finds it has been caused by deliberate poisoning. The political manoeuvring of the Sensorite City Administrator poses another threat to the TARDIS crew as he seeks to discredit and implicate them.
