TEXT: THE TRIAL OF A TIME LORD PART ELEVEN (TERROR OF THE VERVOIDS) Run time: 24:07 [SCENE_BREAK] Corridor [SCENE_BREAK] The Doctor: What's a thremmatologist doing in an isolation room wearing a surgical mask? Mel: Seeing as there's only one way to find out, you've got two problems. The Doctor: Two? Mel: Apart from getting rid of the guard, you're going to need a mask, and you can hardly ask the professor to lend you hers. Mel: Did you hear that? The Doctor: Quickly, the lounge! There are passengers trapped! On the double, man! There are lives at stake. [SCENE_BREAK] Isolation room [SCENE_BREAK] Ruth: No. Stop her. Stop Lasky. Ruth: Got to stop her, stop her. Stop Lasky. Doland: Out! Out! [SCENE_BREAK] Corridor [SCENE_BREAK] The Doctor: What's going on in there? What are you trying to hide? Will you please stop mauling me? Doland: I should drop the innocent party act if I were you. Any moment now, that guard will be back. He's going to be even less enchanted by your antics. Mel: Never mind the guard. That monstrosity, what is it in there? The Doctor: Does the Commodore know what's being isolated in there? Doland: I don't know by whose authority you ask, but if it'll put a stop you your meddling, I'll explain. That monstrosity, as you call her, is my lab assistant, Ruth Baxter. We're taking her to Earth in the hope that we can reverse her condition. Our facilities on Mogar were too primitive. Mel: What happened? How did she get in that state? Doland: The experimental nature of our work entails some calculated risks. The Doctor: Calculated risks? Are you telling me that sad travesty is a statistical possibility? Mel: The word should be criminal. Doland: Very well, perhaps I should have said
SUMMARY:
Mel overhears someone plotting to kill all the animal-king onboard the Hyperion and has taped the conversation, unfortunately the tape vanishes. Meanwhile Bruchner is becoming increasingly worried about the situation in the Hydrophics Centre. It is soon discovered that the creatures that emerged from the pods are Vervoids and they are using the ships air ducts to move around unseen.
