The Doctor and Sarah Jane continue their battle against the mysterious force that has taken hold of the fifteenth-century Italian village of San Martino. The Brotherhood of Demnos, a sinister cult that worships a powerful being called Mandragora Helix, has gained control of the local ruling family and plans to use them to assert their dominance in the region. As the Doctor works to unravel the plot, Sarah Jane falls into the clutches of the Brotherhood and must fight her way back to safety before it's too late.
The Doctor's investigation into the source of the Mandragora Helix leads him to the ancient Temple of Demnos, where he discovers the cult's secret plan to merge the Helix's power with the electrical energy of Galileo's telescope. Realizing the catastrophic consequences of this experiment, the Doctor attempts to stop the Brotherhood and destroy the Helix before it can do any harm.
Meanwhile, Sarah Jane finds herself trapped within the Brotherhood's stronghold and forced to participate in their bizarre masked rituals. With the help of an unlikely ally, she manages to escape and crosses paths with the Doctor once more. Together, they race against time to prevent the Brotherhood's plan from coming to fruition and restore peace to San Martino.
As the final confrontation draws near, the Doctor must use all his knowledge and cunning to defeat the Brotherhood and stop the Mandragora Helix from seizing control of the universe. With the fate of countless worlds hanging in the balance, can the Doctor and Sarah Jane save the day once again?
