To use the communications equipment in the TARDIS.' He hurried away.

Sarah called, 'Coming, Doctor. Wait for me.' She hurried after him.

As if in confirmation of the Doctor's theory, they made their way out of the village and through the woods without seeing a soul.

Once a patrol of android mechanics passed by, heads moving from side to side as if scanning the countryside, but the Doctor and Sarah ducked behind a tree trunk and the mechanics passed them by.

Some time later, the Doctor stopped and looked round, 'We must be almost there by now. The TARDIS should be just behind that next clump of trees.' But it wasn't. When they reached the spot the TARDIS was nowhere to be seen. 'I'm sure it was here,' said the Doctor. 'It was standing by that very tree.'

Sarah looked round. 'It's not here now, is it?' She shivered and buttoned up her jacket.

The Doctor seemed to be thinking aloud. 'Well, it's not programmed to auto-operate. Unless of course...'

'Unless what?'

'When we landed here, I still had my doubts about where we, were—so I set the TARDIS onto pause-control, with the coordinates for Earth locked into the guidance-system.' He paused, then said abruptly, 'Have you still got the TARDIS key, Sarah?'

Sarah shook her head. 'I must have lost it.'

The Doctor's voice hardened. 'No! You haven't lost it because you never had it. Sarah came here and put the key in the lock, and left it there. That canceled the pause control and the TARDIS

continued on its set coordinates—back to Earth!'

Sarah looked at him as if he was mad. 'I don't understand...'

'Oh yes you do,' said the Doctor savagely. He pulled a twig from the nearest tree and snapped it in half, 'This isn't wood, it's plastic. Those aren't real trees, this isn't real Earth—and you're not the real Sarah!'
