The Doctor and Romana set out to find the segment, navigating through treacherous terrain and avoiding the traps set by the Graff's soldiers. Eventually, they find the segment and are able to use it to redirect the course of the Graff's ship, causing it to crash.

With the Graff defeated, the Doctor and Romana retrieve Garron and Unstoffe and return to their TARDIS. As they depart, they reflect on their adventure and look forward to their next mission in the search for the Key to Time.
