The Doctor and Ace arrive on the planet of Terra Alpha, a world governed by the ruthless and tyrannical Helen A who enforces a strict and oppressive code of happiness. The planet is patrolled by the Happiness Patrol, a secret police force tasked with hunting down and punishing any dissenters who dare to display sadness or depression.

The Doctor and Ace quickly become embroiled in a rebellion against Helen A's regime, teaming up with a group of rebels led by a woman named Susan Q. The group operates underground, exchanging subversive messages via a pirate radio station and hiding from the watchful eyes of the Happiness Patrol.

As they work to overthrow Helen A, the Doctor and Ace encounter a range of bizarre and colorful characters, including the Kandyman, a sadistic robot created to enforce Helen A's candy-coated vision of happiness; and the Pipe People, a group of underground dwellers who have mutated due to the planet's high levels of sugar.

The Doctor and Ace must navigate a treacherous and dangerous landscape, avoiding the clutches of the Happiness Patrol and confronting Helen A's twisted and distorted vision of utopia. They must use all their wits and skills to outsmart the authorities and bring freedom and liberation to the people of Terra Alpha.

In The Happiness Patrol (3), the Doctor faces some of his toughest challenges yet, battling against a regime that seeks to crush all opposition and stamp out any signs of individuality or creativity. The episode explores themes of totalitarianism and oppression, presenting a dystopian vision of a world in which happiness is enforced at all costs.

As always, the Doctor brings his trademark blend of humor, intelligence, and bravery to the fight, drawing on his vast knowledge and experience to outsmart his foes and save the day. And with Ace by his side, the Doctor has a trusted and loyal companion who is more than capable of holding her own in a fight.

The Happiness Patrol (3) is a thrilling and action-packed episode that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats from start to finish. With a memorable cast of characters, an engaging plot, and plenty of surprises along the way, it is a must-watch for fans of Doctor Who and sci-fi in general.
