said Jo.

‘Come now, Miss Grant,’ said Trenchard, ‘that’s quite impossible.’

‘A Chief Petty Officer caught the Master masquerading as a senior naval officer,’ said the Doctor, ‘stealing electronic equipment. The Master knocked the man out.’

Now Trenchard was really worried. The Master had said nothing to him about his encounter with a Chief Petty Officer. ‘Well,’ he said, ‘I’d better look into this. Will you both wait here, please?’

Trenchard rose and went to the door.

Jo said, ‘Why not use that monitor of yours?—see if he’s still in his room?’

Trenchard hesitated, and tried to think of some reason for not doing the obvious. ‘Don’t really like gadgets,’ he said. ‘I want to see my prisoner with my own eyes.’ He went out.

The Doctor immediately went to the ’phone on Trenchard’s desk. As with all telephones in prisons, it had a little chain and padlock that immobilised the dial. He turned to Jo. ‘Take the Jeep and get back to the Naval Base straight away. ’Phone UNIT—tell them that Trenchard and his entire staff must be arrested immediately!’

Jo said, ‘What are you going to do?’

‘Be a good guest,’ said the Doctor, ‘and twiddle my thumbs until Mr. Trenchard comes back.’
