Outside the zoo, the spiders finally broke through. They scuttled through the hole and into the main structure in their thousands. A shared mind propelled them to their one goal. Food. The creature wearing the Doctor’s flesh approached the docking bay. Ectoplasmic tendrils unfurled from his body; creating a new, second flesh. Psychic armour. It used the flesh to prise open the door and walk through. It wanted the Canine’s space ship. They had planted bombs on the planet. It would gain access to the mother ship and detonate the bombs. Just because it no longer wanted to kill the Doctor didn’t mean it wouldn’t kill everyone else. The insecure creatures had provided another part of its revenge, and now it would use the Doctor’s body to commit genocide over and over again… Noan stood next to the medium, whose name was, apparently, Anne. She was trying to heal Nick and Alf’s minds while Noan used his weapons systems to keep the spiders at bay. Noan had planned to leave the humans here, but now the risk from the spiders prevented that. As predicted, Nick and Alf were both hideously embarrassed when they came to. Noan did not understand human sexual relationships. They seemed very embarrassed, especially by their nakedness. He instructed them as to the plan, and let them get dressed as they hurried to catch up.
