An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

Landing on the planet of Androzani Minor, the Doctor and new companion Peri go out of the TARDIS to wander around a very, very exotic alien planet and quickly (more or less in this order) find themselves under attack from random people, contract a nasty rash, get captured, jailed, and then shot. Luckily, as it turns out, the Doctor and Peri that were shot were actually android duplicates rather than the real thing. The real Doctor and Peri, on the other hand, now find themselves "guests" of the mysterious Sharaz Jek, who hangs out in the lower caverns wearing a black-and-white jumpsuit and a Phantom of the Opera-style mask.

  • Landing on the planet of Androzani Minor, the Doctor and new companion Peri go out of the TARDIS to wander around a very, very exotic alien planet and quickly (more or less in this order) find themselves under attack from random people, contract a nasty rash, get captured, jailed, and then shot. Luckily, as it turns out, the Doctor and Peri that were shot were actually android duplicates rather than the real thing. The real Doctor and Peri, on the other hand, now find themselves "guests" of the mysterious Sharaz Jek, who hangs out in the lower caverns wearing a black-and-white jumpsuit and a Phantom of the Opera-style mask. Peri and the Doctor compare their rashes; a more senior "guest" of Jek's sees this, and smugly tells them that they are now suffering a slow and painful death at the hands of 'spectrox toxaemia' - said to be incredibly lethal. Before a cure can be found, the Doctor and Peri are separated - with the Doctor being kidnapped by Stotz and his gang (for interrogation at Androzani Major) until he goes MacGyver on his captors, steals their ship and nearly crashes it on the way back to save Peri. While all of this insanity with the Doctor and Peri is happening, there's also subplots featuring arms smugglers, political intrigue and backstabbing of the highest order. And death. Lots and lots of death. Finally, the Doctor returns to Jek's place and goes off into deep, nearly airless caves to retrieve the cure for his and Peri's condition and barely carries her out in time for redeemed-villain Jek to die a Heroic Sacrifice. The Doctor carries Peri along the alien landscape until he trips just before reaching the TARDIS - dropping Peri and one of the two doses of antidote. D'oh. Starting up the TARDIS, the Doctor gives Peri the remaining antidote - actually worried that he might die from the poisoning rather than regenerate. As we all know, though, this is not the case.
