Colony in Space - Part Two
The robot stops. It belongs to the Interplanetary Mining Corporation and it accompanied by Caldwell who works for IMC. They go back to the IMC spaceship which just arrived on Uxarieus.
Captain Dent, the leader of the IMC mission on Uxarieus, has decided that they need to scare off the colonists. Morgan, another IMC employee, is responsible for the deaths of the two colonists the night before. Morgan is put in charge of taking the Doctor back to the site where they found him.
Norton, a half mad colonist from a different colonization mission, kills one of the primitives and a colonist. He claims that the primitive killed the colonist. Norton killed the primitive in self-defense, or so he claims.
Morgan takes the Doctor back to the small dome where the two colonists were found dead. He pulls out his gun and gets ready to kill the Doctor as the episode ends.
Thoughts
So far so good. The IMC seems pretty cut throat, like your typical amoral corporation. The Master still has yet to make an appearance. I wonder if one of the characters in this story is actually the Master in disguise. Norton and Morgan seem like the most likely candidates. I could also see Dent or Caldwell possibly being the Master in disguise. No one else seems like a likely candidate at this point.
