Line 12:
Eventually the Doctor manages to separate the two ships, with help from the TARDIS's systems. The drug-smugglers turn out to be Tryst and Dymond, the owner of the smaller ship. It turns out that vraxoin is made from decomposed Mandrel corpses, which was why Tryst was keeping them in his hi-tech zoo. The Doctor decides to return the Mandrels and the other specimens to their original planets.

=== Tropes ===
 
* [[All There in the Manual]]: The weird glowing thing that knocks Romana out is explained in the novelisation as a venomous Eden insect.
Line 19:
* [[Call Back]]: The CET machine and the Mandrels are very similar to the Miniscope and the Drashigs from "[[Doctor Who/Recap/S10/E02 Carnival of Monsters|Carnival of Monsters]]".
* [[Clear My Name]] / [[Not What It Looks Like]]
* [[Death World]]: The misleadingly named Eden. (The novelisation makes it clear that this was deliberately sarcastic.})
* [[Drunk Driver|Drugged Pilot]]
* [[Drugs Are Bad]]
