In the fourth and final episode of "Colony in Space," the Doctor and his companions are faced with a race against time to save the Earth from destruction. A group of colonists from Earth, who have been forced to settle on a distant planet due to overpopulation, are at war with a mining conglomerate who are threatening to destroy the planet's ecology by drilling and mining the precious minerals that lie beneath the surface. The Doctor finds himself caught in the middle of the conflict and must use all of his wit and cunning to prevent the destruction of both the planet and the colonists.
As tensions rise between the colonists and the mining corporation, the Doctor discovers that there is a deeper conspiracy at work: a rogue Time Lord, known as the Master, is manipulating events in order to gain control of a powerful alien artefact that has been hidden on the planet. With the help of the colonists, the Doctor sets out to stop the Master and prevent him from unleashing the power of the artefact - and putting the entire galaxy in danger.
But the Doctor soon discovers that the situation is far more complicated than he initially thought. As he delves deeper into the mystery of the artefact, he uncovers a web of deceit and betrayal that stretches back centuries - a web that involves not only the Master, but also some of the Doctor's oldest and deadliest enemies. With time running out and the fate of the galaxy at stake, the Doctor must use all of his knowledge and expertise to unravel the conspiracy and stop his enemies before it's too late.
