The Rani, at last, links the Doctor into her great brain machine, the crowning jewel in her component packet of geniuses brought together to turn Lakertya itself into one vast cerebral mass capable of redirecting time anywhere in the universe, giving her absolute power over all creation.

The solstice nears, making it time for the Rani to bring her plans into fruition. The Doctor's sympathies for Beyus, ruler of the Lykertyans, are rather qualified.

The Rani's deviousness inadvertently sets the Doctor and Mel against each other - she having yet seen the Doctor in his new regeneration, he believing Mel is the Rani disguised, and each thinking the other is an agent of utmost evil to be brought down.

Left behind in the TARDIS, alive but unconscious, where she's found by a grim rebel Lakertyan who then makes off with her.
