The TARDIS arrives on the planet Deva Lokka, where the peaceful native Kinda are being screwed with by an evil imperialist human expedition.<ref>They even wear pith helmets</ref>
Nyssa is suffering from a mysterious mental clouding, and gets to stay in the TARDIS for the whole story. Tegan falls asleep under some wind chimes, and finds a sinister guy called Dukkha invading her dreamscape. He proceeds to [[Mind Rape]] her for two episodes until she finally agrees to let him possess her body.
Line 17:
The Doctor and Todd escape from the base and meet up with Panna and Karuna. Panna tells them that the evil force that has taken over Tegan is the Mara, an evil entity that feeds off destruction. It also turns out that the Mara will take over any non-telepathic entity that uses the wind chimes for visionary dreams, so it's all the Doctor's fault for letting Tegan sleep under them. She shows the Doctor and Todd a vison of the horrible things that will happen if the Mara isn't stopped, and then drops dead. Fortunately, thanks to Kinda telepathy, Karuna gets her memories and some of her personality.
The Doctor, Todd and Karuna find Tegan and wake her up. She thinks she just had a horrible nightmare, but they explain to her how badly things are messed up. They all reach the human base in time to see Aris and the Kinda attack it, and Adric hold them off using a cyborg device that [[Mind Rape
Todd manipulates Hindle into opening the Box of Jhana himself just as he is about to blow everyone up, and the experience shocks him back to sanity. The Doctor and Karuna then get the Kinda to help them trap Aris in a circle of mirrors (solar panels from the base) and the Mara leaves his body, materialises as a snake, and dies. Because evil can't take seeing itself reflected.
