The TARDIS materializes inside the station and the Doctor quickly gains the trust of the staff by revealing his identity as a Time Lord. Meanwhile, Cybermen have infiltrated the station in order to take control of all Earth’s energy and convert humanity into Cybermen themselves.

As the situation escalates, the Doctor’s knowledge of the approaching planet reveals it to be the mysterious Tenth Planet, one that was previously unknown to Earth’s astronomers.
