TEXT: IMAGE OF THE FENDAHL BY: CHRIS BOUCHER Part One Running time: 24:38 [SCENE_BREAK] COLBY: Oh, don't just sit there, Eustace, say something. THEA: Why don't you just publish and get it over with. COLBY: Why should anyone believe it? I found him and I don't. THEA: Are you questioning my technical competence. COLBY: Of course not. The volcanic sediment is twelve million years old. I accept without reservation the results of your excellent potassium-argon test. THEA: Thank you. COLBY: What I don't accept is that Eustace here got himself buried under a volcano at least eight million years before he could have possibly existed. STAEL: Colby, Doctor Fendelman is waiting for the corrected coordinates. COLBY: Here you go. STAEL: Thank you. COLBY: Oh, and Maxi, end the day with a smile. [SCENE_BREAK] FENDELMAN: Yes. Good, good. Right. Stael, we can begin. FENDELMAN: Phase one power. STAEL: Phase one power. FENDELMAN: Phase two power. STAEL: Phase two power. FENDELMAN: Switching to main computer control. FENDELMAN: Activate full power run-up sequence. STAEL: Activating full power run-up sequence, now. [SCENE_BREAK] MAN: I can't, I can't. [SCENE_BREAK] STAEL: Full power. FENDELMAN: Excellent, Stael. We can begin the scan. Commencing scan, programme one. [SCENE_BREAK] LEELA: Professor Marius would not be very pleased. DOCTOR: Nasty. Very nasty. LEELA: Will he be all right? DOCTOR: Shush. I don't know. It will be all right. It just has a little corrosion in its circuits. LEELA: I can call K9 he if I want to. You call the TARDIS she. DOCTOR: Never. LEELA
