3 Stuck in the Lift.
The Doctor and Ommera are in the Tardis in the Cybermen's spaceship lift.
"Stay here, please, Ommera. I'm going after her," the Doctor says. "Let's wedge the door open so we can get back in."
The Doctor wafts his sonic screwdriver around the edges of the door, but the door has lost all power and won't open.
"Can we try to force it open?" Ommera suggests.
Ommera starts to prise the doors apart with her fingers; it is extremely stiff. The Doctor puts his shoes in the way to prevent the doors from closing and uses his arms to open the doors further.
"I'll grab a chair to wedge it," Ommera says. "Hold on."
"I am," the Doctor pants. Keeping the door open is much harder than it looked.
Ommera comes back a moment later with one of the plastic chairs. She wedges the door partially open with the chair. "We'll just have to climb across."
Intruder on the Bridge.
The Cyberman re-appears on the bridge and sees the Doctor in the lift behind the plastic chair. "Who are you?" he demands.
"I'm the Doctor," the Doctor says.
"You aren't upgraded," the Cyberman says. "You aren't a volunteer. You aren't a worker. We don't need a doctor. You - are an intruder! No intrusion is permitted. You will be deleted. Delete. Delete." The Cyberman raises his arm and the gun nozzles appear. It is time that the Doctor moved!
The Doctor races towards one of the doors out of the bridge. The Cyberman starts shooting. One of the places where a communications officer would sit is destroyed by his fire. The Cyberman steps towards the door to cut off the Doctor's escape. The Doctor runs towards the other door out of the bridge. As the Cyberman is still shooting, there is a trail of destruction. Then the Cyberman shoots that exit door. It fails to open when the Doctor approaches it.
"You will be deleted," the Cyberman re-states.
The Doctor runs for the lift doors but is isn't quite as easy to get into the lift as it might have been, with a plastic chair wedged across the doorway. He jumps the chair, but still has to step into the Tardis while being visible to the Cyberman.
The Cyberman shoots the Doctor and he collapses to the floor.
Ommera stifles a scream inside the Tardis but she is out of sight of Cyberman. The Cyberman doesn't see Ommera and strides out again.
Ommera is grief stricken. "What?!"
The Doctor Dies.
Ommera pulls the Doctor fully inside the Tardis. She cradles the Doctor in her arms. She sobs. She is alone with the dying Doctor. She gives the Doctor some insubstantial CPR. Then she kisses him on the forehead and sobs.
The Ommera calls out, "Tardis, can we save Crystelle? I need Crystelle."
Ommera is feeling alone in a hostile environment. Just now she longs for someone to hold her hand.
Crystelle's Cell.
Meanwhile, Crystelle has been taken to join the other prisoners in one of the cells. She is talking with the prisoners that she met earlier. There are no seats in the cell, only a floor. Most of the prisoners are sitting on the floor. The further prisoners from the Cookerama day out have joined those already there.
"We thought you were going to rescue us," the prisoner who approached her earlier reproaches her.
"Things don't always go to plan," Crystelle says. What can she say? Could she admit to messing around with a lift door? Maybe not! "Where were you picked up from and what did they say to lure you in?" she asks.
"They offered upgrades whatever they are," the man says. "It sounded great at the time, but I've been talking to some of the others. One girl said her mum was ahead of her in the queue and had been upgraded but the end of their shift came, and she wasn't upgraded. But the screams!..." He can't bring himself to relate what that girl had said.
Crystelle was wishing that she had been listening more intently when Ommera was in the kitchen. She had heard something about the Cyber woman's daughter. But then, if her mum had been upgraded, that might be a torture for the daughter to hear about her own mother's sadness and difficulties.
Having talked to Crystelle and each other, the prisoners now recognise their mistake in accepting upgrade and fully want out.
As the Tardis grinds, announcing its entry to their holding cell, Crystelle perks up. "Wow. My friends have come to rescue me. Anyone else for a trip?" she says brightly.
The people in the cell generally mumble assent. They hadn't expected to be imprisoned, so, even before talking to Crystelle they had changed their minds about upgrade, whatever that might be.
"Thank you, but I can't see how this is escape, that's such a small box," the first person says.
"Wait 'til you see what we've got," Crystelle boasts. She feels immense pride in the capabilities of the Tardis.
Crystelle herds the other people into the Tardis and closes the door.
Passengers in the Tardis.
Crystelle sees the Doctor.
"What's happened to the Doctor?" Crystelle gasps.
Then it starts to hit Ommera what has happened. "A Cyberman shot him." She sobs.
"What?!" Crystelle is appalled. What will they do now?
Ommera takes a deep breath. Somehow she must cope in this situation. It is nice for her to have Crystelle there, but there are practical things to do. She goes over to the Tardis console. "Tardis; are there others to be rescued?" she asks quietly.
The Tardis grinds and moves to another cell.
Ommera opens the Tardis door, goes out and brings in other bewildered people.
"This is a bit different from Cookerama," the second person says happily.
Ommera hears approaching footsteps. Two cybermen are approaching.
What will the Cybermen do when they see the Tardis and Ommera? What will the other released captives do in the Tardis?
