One to One






SUTEKH
Any further insolence, Doctor, 
and I shall shred your nervous system into a million fibres. 
Is that understood? 

(The TARDIS Key and chain are lifted from the Doctor's waistcoat and hang in the air before Sutekh.

SUTEKH
Scarman. 

 [Study] 
 (Sarah is awake now.) 

SCARMAN: 
I hear you, Master. 

SUTEKH [OC]: 
My Enemies have brought the means of My Deliverance. 

(The Time-Space passage opens.) 

SARAH
The TARDIS Key! 

SUTEKH [OC]: 
This allows you entry into 
the Time Lord's space machine. 
Take one servicer and travel to The Pyramid of Mars. 

 [Sutekh's tomb]
Tom : 
He won't find that possible, Sutekh. 

SUTEKH
Scarman is My Puppet. 
My Mind is in His. 

Tom
The Controls of The TARDIS 
are isomorphic

SUTEKH
One to one. 
They answer to You alone

Tom
Yes. 

SUTEKH
Then I was wise to spare you. 
My Mind is in Yours! 

(The Doctor's face goes blank, and he stands up then crosses his arms over his chest.) 

Tom
Master.
 
SUTEKH
Scarman? 

[Study] 
 
SCARMAN
Master. 

SUTEKH [OC]: 
I send you the Time Lord. 
He will control The Machine. 
The human girl will accompany you. 
If the Time Lord shows the slightest sign of self-will, 
kill her immediately. 

SCARMAN: 
It is understood, Great One. 

(The Doctor enters through the passage.) 

SARAH: 
Doctor, what's happened? 

SCARMAN: 
Stand back. 

(A mummy puts its hand on Sarah's shoulder and she winces.) 

SCARMAN: 
He is possessed by The Great One. 
Whom do you serve, Time Lord? 

Tom : 
Sutekh. 

SCARMAN: 
Who holds all Life in His Hands? 

Tom : 
Sutekh. 

SCARMAN: 
Who is The Bringer of Death? 

Tom : 
Sutekh! 

SCARMAN: 
Venerate His Name and obey Him in all things. 

Tom : 
Sutekh is Supreme

SARAH: 
No. 

SCARMAN: 
Control is Established, Great One. 

SUTEKH [OC]: 
It is well. But the Time Lords are a perfidious species. 
Dispose of him when you reach The Pyramid of Mars. 

SCARMAN: 
It shall be done. Come.
