'The Doctor the Doctor is dead,said Romana, unable to take her eyes away from the Doctors coffin.

Evadne looked to Harken. He nodded gravely. 'He sacrificed his very life, attempting to defeat the terrible menace threatening the G-Lock,' said Harken. 'It was a noble and courageous death. Quite moving.'

'You saw it happen?' said Evadne.

'Oh, yes. I filmed it. All seems a bit futile now, of course, but the intention was there'

Romana listened with mounting horror. So this was the Doctor's fate; to end up as a charred corpse in the wreckage of the necroport.

'But how? I mean, what was he trying to do, exactly?'

asked Evadne.

'Ah, well, that's a good question, because you see -'

'Silence!' yelled Paddox, swinging his pistol round. 'I have very little reason not to kill you all. My reserves of patience are not infinite' Harken fell into silence, and Paddox directed his gun towards Romana. 'And you. Back against the wall now or you will join your dead friend.'

Romana looked at Paddox as though he was an unpleasant stain. Reluctantly, she raised her hands above her head and joined Evadne and Harken by the wall. 'What are you trying to do?' she said angrily.

Paddox indicated the strange plant creatures on either side of the Doctor. 'Do you know what these are?'

'Aboretans,' said Romana. The male is called Gallura.'

Paddox approached Romana, still holding two lengths of chain. 'Yes. Now, how do you come to know that?'

'Oh, you would be surprised how much I know,' said Romana calmly.

'As you say, these are Arboretans. And I have discovered their secret.'

'What secret is that?'

Paddox took on a faraway look. The greatest discovery in the history of science.'
