The Doctor, Steven, and Vicki hasten across the landscape. A Chumbley chitters about them. Suddenly the Chumbley stops, turns around, and fires as the Drahvins attack. There is a bright flash and the Drahvins fling themselves to the ground. Steven and Vicki run towards the ship, clearly out of breath.
"Come on Doc!" Steven yells, The Doctor runs up, panting for breath, grasping the side of the police box to steady himself. The Chumbley is just behind him. "Here they come!"
The Doctor pushes open the door and they go in, avoiding the cable that leads away from the ship. Steven comes out again with the end of the cable and tosses it to the ground. The door closes again. The Drahvins rush towards the ship, their guns blazing. It is getting lighter now as dawn fast approaches. The TARDIS gradually dematerializes. Maaga and the Drahvins stagger back, clasping their hands over their ears, surprised by the sound it makes. The planet starts to shake, more violently than ever. Maaga and the Drahvins look around, fear etched on their faces. As the planet begins to break up, the noise is deafening.
The Doctor is busy manipulating the controls of the ship. Steven and Vicki are looking very relieved at their escape.
"Can we see the disintegration on the scanners Doctor?" asked Steven.
"No, I'm afraid not, dear boy." The Doctor responds, "We've dematerialized from that galaxy..."
Vicki still looks up at the scanner and then groans. The Doctor watches her and moves to join her.
"Oh!" She groans, and she continues.
"What's the matter, child, hmm?" The Doctor asks in concern.
"I've hurt my ankle." The Doctor examines her foot, taking a quick look at the injury.
"Oh... yes, I'm afraid we shall-yes, we'll just have to put a cold compress on that. Oh dear, dear, dear! You know, I wish we could stop somewhere for a while and take stock of ourselves, instead of being surrounded by dangers all the time."
Jack was waiting at the base of the ramp, arms folded casually over his chest, when SG-9 returned. They had radioed ahead to inform him of their findings, and his eyes locked onto Daniel as the Stargate disengaged. Jack raised his eyebrows at Colonel Getty. "I thought I told you not to let him touch anything."
"My apologies, sir. I turned my back for one minute, suddenly it's the end of the world."
"I won't judge you too harshly. I've been on the receiving end of that myself."
"Thank you, sir."
Jack glared at Daniel. "First mission after defeating the Goa'uld."
"I'm aware."
"A nice leisurely temple to explore, nothing to get excited about except a few dusty carvings."
"I know."
Jack thumped the back of his hand against Daniel's chest.
"First time leaving your office in weeks and you go and find a doomsday weapon."
