In the end, the Doctor sets Adric straight and then goes flying around in space without a space suit, but WITH the help of a cricket ball and The Power Of Physics, and rescues the TARDIS. Then he randomly throws an incredibly deadly poison at Monarch, which doesn't kill him... but instead [[Incredible Shrinking Man|shrinks him]]. Yeah. And the robots announce that they're going off to find their own planet and "start again."
 
Everyone leaves, and Nyssa conveniently collapses at literally the last second because she originally wasn't written in the next episode. <ref>In fact, if it wasn't for Davison's intervention, Nyssa would've been dropped as a companion altogether. Her sudden collapse is actually the basis of the Big Finish audio story [[Big Finish Doctor Who (Radio)/Recap/026 Primeval/Recap|Primeval]]</ref>
