The Doctor and his companion Jo Grant find themselves on a dangerous and mysterious planet, where they discover that the Daleks have established a base. The Doctor knows that the Daleks are planning something sinister, but he is unsure what it is. As they explore the planet, they encounter several groups of survivors from other worlds who have also been brought to the planet by the Daleks. The Doctor and Jo join forces with the survivors to try and stop the Daleks and uncover their plans.
However, they soon discover that there is more to the planet than meets the eye. The planet is home to a deadly jungle, where strange creatures and lethal plants lurk at every turn. The jungle is also home to a mysterious city, which the Daleks are desperately trying to reach. The Doctor and Jo realise that the city holds the key to the Daleks' plans, and they must find a way to get there before the Daleks do.
As they journey through the jungle, the Doctor and Jo face numerous challenges and dangers, including deadly quicksand and an encounter with a giant reptilian creature. They also meet a group of Thals, a peaceful race who have been fighting against the Daleks for generations. The Thals agree to help the Doctor and Jo in their quest, and together they make their way to the Dalek base.
Once they arrive, the Doctor and Jo discover that the Daleks are planning to launch a devastating attack on the galaxy. Their mission is to spread a deadly virus to other planets, wiping out all life except for the Daleks. As the Daleks prepare to launch their attack, the Doctor and Jo realise that they must act fast to stop them.
The Doctor hatches a daring plan to destroy the Dalek base, using the planet's natural resources to create a powerful explosion. With the help of the Thals and the other survivors, the Doctor and Jo take on the Daleks in a thrilling battle that will determine the fate of the entire galaxy. As the explosion rocks the planet, the Doctor and Jo make a desperate race for the TARDIS, pursued by the Daleks.
In the end, the Doctor and Jo manage to escape, but not without some casualties on their side. They watch as the planet explodes, knowing that they have prevented the Daleks from causing chaos in the galaxy. The Doctor vows to continue his fight against the Daleks, knowing that they will always be a threat to the universe. As he sets the TARDIS controls, the Doctor and Jo say goodbye to the survivors they have met on the planet, and prepare to depart for their next adventure.
