- Oh, we don't need one.

This just needs refilling with mercury.

I have some in my labora... tory.

Supposing there isn't any mercury

on this planet.

We'll have to try the city. It's about

the only place we're likely to find any.

Be careful!

- Susan!

- Susan!

Right. Thank you, Susie.

It looks like some sort of drug.

I wonder what it is.

So there was someone here.

I shall make some tests on these

when we get home. Yes.

Now, perhaps you'll put those inside

for me, will you, Susan, dear?

And now...

for the city.

That was a steep climb, wasn't it, Susie?

- What's the matter?

- It's all right, dear.

Grandfather, are you all right?

Just a little tired.

My legs are rather weak.

I don't feel too well myself.

Must be the altitude.

Take a good, deep breath, lad.

That's better. Yes.

Now, in a city like this,

there must be laboratories.

Now, that's where we could find

some mercury.

Now, I suggest we all take different

directions and then all meet back here.

How's that? Yes? Right.

Now, you come along with me, Susie.

You take that one.

Having trouble, lad?

I can't get through those doors!

Let's try the other way.

Susan, dear, you sit on there

while we try to keep those doors open.

When I shout, you run just as fast

as you can. Good girl.

Ready? Now, Susan! Run! Fast!

Not too fast, lad. Not too fast.

Come on, lad.

- Wait.

- What is it?

Listen.

It's coming from over there.

Well!

Susan! Susan, dear.

Measuring instruments.

But to measure what, I wonder?

This is some sort of Geiger counter.

And it is past the danger point.

The atmosphere is polluted

with a very high level of fallout.

Then we must find Barbara

and get back to TARDIS.

Even if we do,

we can't leave until we get some mercury.

Young man, I have to confess,

there is nothing wrong

with the fluid link.

I just didn't want to leave

until we had explored the city.

- Please forgive me.

- Well, let's get out of here.

You will move ahead of us

and follow directions.

This way.

He will recover shortly.

Search him.

That is of no value to you! It...

Come this way.

- Thank goodness, you've come!

- I'm so glad you're safe!

Ian! Ian, what happened to you?

- Oh, it's nothing.

- He'll be all right in a minute.

- Yeah.

- Ian!

Don't worry. Don't worry, Barbara.

It is only a temporary shock.

Get him up over here. Up.

At least we're all together.

How do you feel?

Sort of weak and giddy.

- And Susan?

- I feel the same.

We found a Geiger counter upstairs.

This planet has a high level of radiation,

perhaps the result

of some lost atomic war.

All the time we were in the open,

we were exposed to it.

What's gonna happen to us,
