Col Foster and co. try to understand what has happened. Straker picks up Lake at night, and as the pair drive they observe a UFO, which is following them, The UFO starts to attack them, and they radio for assistance, but are unable to contact SHADO HQ, and they drive off the road, under a tree, and when Straker says 'freeze', they're hit with some beam. When they arrive back at the studio gate, it's mid-day, with a bright sun, and they discover the base and surrounding area are frozen in time and space. They move through the base, they see everyone frozen, including all the equipment, and a bird in mid-air. Straker observes and tries to move a stool fixed in mid-air, which he hits with a stick (they are able to pick up and manipulate the stick). At this point he realises there are inconsistencies in what exactly is frozen (they are also able to use a lift) and surmises it is all part of an Alien plot. In the lot they come across one person who isn't affected; Turner, who has become an Alien accomplice. He tells Straker of the powers they have given him and a device he's planted in the base disabling SHADO HQ. A UFO is now hovering around the base and Straker tries to take it out. Turner is too powerful and can actually skip around in time and space faster than the eye can see, and prevents this. A chase and battle ensue with a power-mad Turner taunting the pair. Finally Straker out smarts him and is able to destroy the UFO. Written by thecycnic See less
