The Doctor and his companion, Jo, find themselves in a difficult situation as they try to prevent a war from breaking out on the planet Peladon. In this fourth and final part of "The Curse of Peladon" storyline, tensions continue to escalate as the delegates of different planets gather to discuss the future of Peladon. The Doctor and Jo believe that someone is manipulating the proceedings and try to uncover the truth before it's too late.

As the story unfolds, the Doctor and Jo encounter a range of interesting characters, including the High Priest Hepesh and the Ice Warriors from Mars. Hepesh, who has become increasingly hostile towards the other delegates, seems to be the most likely culprit behind the rising tensions and the mysterious deaths that have occurred. Meanwhile, the Ice Warriors are divided between two factions: one that wants peace and cooperation with Peladon and another that seeks to exploit the planet's resources.

As they search for evidence, the Doctor and Jo face a number of challenges. They uncover a hidden room in the castle where they find a mysterious figure in a mask who seems to be controlling events. They also discover that the real culprit behind the deaths is a creature known as the Aggedor, which has been controlled by Hepesh all along. The Aggedor is a powerful and fearsome beast that is revered by the people of Peladon. It is feared that if the Aggedor is not appeased, it will cause destruction and chaos.

In their efforts to bring peace to Peladon, the Doctor and Jo must negotiate with the delegates and convince them to work together. They also have to find a way to stop Hepesh and his plan to use the Aggedor to start a war. Along the way, the Doctor demonstrates his brilliance as a problem solver, using his intelligence and wit to outsmart his enemies and uncover the truth.

"The Curse of Peladon: Part 4" is a thrilling conclusion to an action-packed storyline that explores themes of politics, diplomacy, and power. It showcases the Doctor's unique approach to problem-solving and his compassionate nature, as he works to prevent bloodshed and bring about a peaceful resolution. Fans of classic Doctor Who will enjoy this engaging and entertaining episode that delivers all the suspense and excitement one could hope for.
