1. Steven, look! The Doctor's reached 0902.

2. We have to hurry. Where's the next game we have to play?

3. Yaroo! It's right over here.

4. You won't find it so easy this time, you know.

5. You see, you'll be playing against me.

6. Well, here we are. Here's the next game. Tardis hopscotch.

7. - What are we supposed to do? - Each pair takes one of these dice

8. and throws them onto the triangles.

9. The number that you've thrown will appear on the dice indicator.

10. That's to make certain that no one can cheat.

11. You move forward the number you've thrown. The first to reach triangle 14 is the winner.

12. - Easy, isn't it? - It's too easy. What's the catch?

13. No catch. The first one home's the winner.

14. - That gives us a two-to-one chance over you. - Why, so it does.

15. Well, there you are. You jump from triangle to triangle. The first one home wins.

16. Why do we have to jump?

17. Well, you can walk if you like, but I shouldn't if I were you.

18. - Why not? - Well, you see,

19. all the area between the triangles is electric, and you'll be killed.

20. I don't think your friends will do so well now, Doctor.

21. Cyril hates to lose, so he makes sure that he never does.

22. Oh, don't stop playing, Doctor. You're so near the end.

23. Soon you'll discover whether or not you've got the sequence right.

24. I think you need help.

25. Go from move 930.

26. At this rate, you'll finish your game long before Steven and Dodo find the Tardis.

27. It will be fun having you here.

28. And your friends will make charming dolls.

29. It may interest you to know that their chairs are waiting for them in the doll's house.

30. - Now, we all know what we have to do. - (BOTH) Yes.

31. Ladies first, if you don't mind.

32. (DODO ) Three.

33. (STEVEN) Careful, Dodo.

34. One...

35. Two...

36. - Three. - You're next.

37. You're just too good to be true, aren't you?

38. (STEVEN) Four.

39. One...

40. Two...

41. Three...

42. Four.

43. (STEVEN) It says go to number seven. Do I?

44. Yes. Go on.

45. One...

46. Two...

47. I should have told you. If you land on a triangle that's occupied,

48. the first player goes back to the starting post.

49. Now I see why you let us go first. All right. Go on. Don't keep us in suspense.

50. It's all part of the game, old chap.

51. (CYRIL) Ah. Two.

52. One...

53. Two.

54. Now it's my turn. I think I'm going to enjoy this game...

55. (DODO ) Three.

56. Oh, I'm sorry, Steven. Do I have to send you back to the start?

57. We can't send each other back. We're playing together.

58. If you don't abide by the rules, you can't possibly win the game.

59. He's right, Steven.

60. We must play fair.

61. After all, we ARE two to one.

62. All right.

63. Watch him.

64. - (STEVEN) What does that mean? - He's pretending not to understand the rules.

65. You go back a turn!

66. My turn now, I think. Ah, a three!

67. One...

68. Two... Three.

69. I'm still right behind you!

70. Only 72 moves to go. Cyril seems to have the game well in hand.

71. Your friends are tiring, Doctor.

72. I don't think they're going to get your Tardis back.

73. As you are certainly going to lose, I feel I should be kinder to you.

74. You are no longer under the ban of silence. There.

75. I have given you back your voice.

76. Now you're sulking, or have you forgotten how to speak?

77. (DOCTOR) You have spent a great deal of trouble in trying to break my concentration.

78. It's very unlikely that you will succeed now.

79. Agh!

80. It's only me - Cyril!

81. I've told you before about these idiotic jokes. She nearly fell off.

82. It's all part of the game. You can go back to the start for cheating.

83. That's not fair, is it?

84. He moved when it wasn't his turn, and I've landed on your triangle.

85. - You can both go back to the start. - He makes up the rules as he goes along!

86. I'm going to the finish line to see if that's the real Tardis or not.

87. Don't you like my little game?

88. No, I don't.

89. What a pity to give up now, having overcome so many obstacles.

90. - (DODO ) We're not giving up. - Are you sure?

91. I just want to get to the end of this.

92. It's no good. It's some sort of invisible barrier.

93. Precisely. A barrier that yields only to those who play the game according to the rules.

94. So perhaps you'll go back to the platform where you started?

95. Come on, Dodo.

96. Yah!

97. (CYRIL) One up to me!

98. My turn now, I think.

99. Ah, a two!

100. One...

101. - Two. - I'll see if he has an invisible barrier

102. - around his backside. - Better not.

103. - Whose turn is it? - Mine.

104. That's better. Six.

105. One... Two...

106. Three...

107. Four...

108. Five...

109. Six.

110. - Do I get a second turn for a six? - Certainly not!

111. I thought not, somehow.

112. I think they'll abide by the rules now, Doctor. Don't you agree?

113. There's no point in giving you back your power of speech

114. if you're going to stay silent and sullen.

115. (DOCTOR) You seem to say quite enough for both of us.

116. In any case, I'm busy.

117. Your friends are not doing very well.

118. Your friend Cyril won't do so well when Steven catches up with him.

119. Poor Steven. Little does he know.

120. You're playing too slowly, Doctor.

121. Go from move 1,000!

122. Only 23 moves to go.

123. And look - your friend Steven has had to miss a turn.

124. Oh, no. Not another "miss a turn"!

125. You can't possibly win now. Why don't you both give up?

126. It's up to you now, Dodo. Give it a good shake.

127. (DODO ) Six.

128. One...

129. Two...

130. Three...

131. Four...

132. Five...

133. Six. Now I only need four to get home.

134. I only needed three, and it's my turn now. Too bad, isn't it?

135. Oh. Two.

136. One... Two.

137. (DODO ) He has to go back to nine. (STEVEN) Come on.

138. Look who's trying to cheat now!

139. Give a chap a chance to do up his shoelace, will you?

140. One...

141. Two...

142. Three...

143. - Four... - Come on, Dodo. You must throw a four.

144. (DODO ) Is he hurt? (STEVEN) It's a trick.

145. His foot's bleeding. We can't just leave him.

146. - Play! - No. I'm going to help him.

147. Dodo!

148. You'd better take your sock off.

149. Hey, that's red ink!

150. Of course it is! You're so easy to fool, you are.

151. Now you can go back to the start for getting out of your triangle, and miss a turn.

152. - It's my turn now. - Of all the spiteful things!

153. It will teach you to think you can beat me in a game. A five!

154. Hooray! I've won!

155. Hoorah for me! Yahoo!

156. Agh!

157. What happened?

158. I don't know.

159. Poor old Cyril.

160. Hey...

161. This triangle's covered in slippery powder.

162. He must have put this here himself and forgotten all about it.

163. Caught in his own trap. It serves him right.

164. - Come on, Dodo. The game's over. - No. We've got to play the game to the end.

165. You heard what the Toymaker said. I'm sure I can throw that four.

166. Hurry. Look at that tally. The Doctor's almost finished his game.

167. Four! We've won, Steven!

168. Agh!

169. Dodo, I told you about the powder. Now, take it easy. We mustn't lose now.

170. Go on. I'll follow you over.

171. Perhaps it's just another fake.

172. - Well, I was right. - Make the last move, Doctor.

173. No. Not yet.

174. Excuse me.

175. (DOCTOR) I see Steven and Dodo have found the Tardis.

176. One little trick, and your little trick is broken.

177. I am now visible.

178. You are indeed, Doctor. Well done. The three of you have won your little games.

179. I am glad you take it so calmly.

180. If you will excuse me, I will go and see if the Tardis is all right.

181. - Just suppose this isn't the real one. - It must be.

182. If it wasn't, something would have happened by now. Unless...

183. - What? - It's humming. Only the real Tardis does that.

184. - Maybe the Toymaker made a humming one. - Why didn't he make the others do it?

185. - Well done, my boy! - Doctor!

186. Yes, I'm back. I'm very glad to hear that you're bringing logic into your guesses.

187. You're safe. You won your game.

188. Yes, and it's high time that we were off.

189. I can't wait to leave. I don't want to play another game ever!

190. I don't think that's going to be likely, dear boy.

191. I hope I do not interrupt a council of war.

192. Don't waste our time on trivial formalities. You have been defeated. Now leave us alone.

193. - You know you must lose in the end. - Only I can win.

194. If I lose, the Doctor and I go down together.

195. Now, don't start red herrings, you charlatan.

196. Go on, young people. Go on. Ask your elderly friend if he can win completely.

197. Is this true, Doctor? Are we bound to fail?

198. No, my dear boy. He's just tricking us into despair. Take no notice of him.

199. - Tell them the truth, Doctor. Hide nothing. - You must tell us. We ought to know.

200. I am compelled to tell the truth.

201. It is possible that the Toymaker can drag us down in defeat with him, unless...

202. - (STEVEN) Unless what? - Well, it's all very simple.

203. - It's a matter of a battle of our brains. - Do we have a chance to escape?

204. Yes, we still have a chance, but we must proceed with cunning.

205. (TOYMAKER) An impossible task.

206. As long as we can beat you, that's all I care.

207. - You can't beat us now. - We shall see.

208. - Well said, my boy. - Well said (I)

209. He doesn't even know what he is saying.

210. These adolescent expressions of loyalty (I)

211. Before you make puerile promises, remember the past - your little adventures.

212. Remember my power.

213. Your power? We won through, didn't we?

214. Perhaps, but would you dare to play those little games again?

215. - Not until I've laid hands on you! - It's no use, Steven. Leave him.

216. - Are you all right? - I couldn't touch him.

217. He's using his mind to turn your strength against yourself.

218. Go back into the Tardis. I will deal with him.

219. Doctor, I offer you power.

220. Power to corrupt, to destroy.

221. Think of the exhilaration of that power.

222. Serve me and live.

223. Never! Never, my friend.

224. (LAUGHS) You have been defeated!

225. We will see, old man.

226. The game is not yet over.

227. We shall see.

228. What have you done? Stop meddling with my ship!

229. It isn't what I have done, but what YOU have not done.

230. You must finish the game.

231. You cannot leave here until you have.

232. Your infantile behaviour is beyond a joke.

233. No...

234. Of course. I mustn't. You very nearly caught me then.

235. Make your last move, Doctor. Make your move.

236. But if I do, this place vanishes, hm?

237. And then you have won completely?

238. If this place vanishes, then the Tardis and the rest of us will vanish also.

239. That is the price of success.

240. Make your last move, Doctor.

241. Make your last move.

242. - What can be keeping him? - Something the Toymaker did to the Tardis.

243. The Doctor has to persuade the Toymaker to let us go.

244. We won his games. The Toymaker said we have the right to go.

245. - Now I'm here, I don't mind. I'm safe. - Here he is.

246. Close the doors, my boy.

247. - What's happened? - It's no use.

248. What's he done?

249. If we destroy the Toymaker, we destroy this world.

250. - Well, is that bad? - Surely that's a good thing?

251. This is really a very sad place.

252. I don't think you understand.

253. As the games are over and won by us,

254. everything outside the Tardis disappears, and if we are there, we disappear also.

255. But we HAVE won, and it hasn't happened yet.

256. It will - the moment I go out there and make the final move of the Trilogic game.

257. Why doesn't he just let us go? He can't want to be destroyed.

258. - He won't be. - But if everything disappears, why not him?

259. If the Toymaker loses the game, his world will vanish,

260. but he has the power to build a new one.

261. - How? - The Toymaker is immortal.

262. He's lasted thousands of years. Occasionally he loses a game and pays the price.

263. That price is the loss of his world?

264. Yes, but he himself is not destroyed. He goes on for ever.

265. So we can't leave.

266. There must be a way.

267. (DOCTOR) Will you leave my ship alone?

268. Do you hear me? Will you leave my ship alone?

269. Let me have it, Doctor. It will be such an amusing toy.

270. (DOCTOR) Let me have the Trilogic game in here.

271. Of course not. Be reasonable, Doctor.

272. If I allow you to make the last move in there,

273. then you can preset your controls

274. and dematerialise at the same moment that my world vanishes.

275. Then you will escape.

276. (DOCTOR) It will make no difference to you. You can build a new world.

277. Of course. And I look forward to that.

278. I am bored with this one, but I am a bad loser, Doctor.

279. I always destroy the destroyer.

280. I will not come out and make that final move.

281. Then you must stay there for ever.

282. Let me go out and make that move for you.

283. - Nonsense. You don't want to disappear. - You and Dodo would get away.

284. That's very noble of you, but I absolutely forbid it.

285. You've done quite enough in getting the Tardis back.

286. Something's got to be done. We can't just talk our way out of this.

287. We can! That's just it. That's just what we can do!

288. Listen to me.

289. I will make that final move.

290. How sensible of you, Doctor.

291. (DOCTOR) Go back to the Trilogic game.

292. - Are you ready? - Whenever you are, Doctor.

293. Very well.

294. (QUIETLY) Preset for dematerialisation.

295. (SHOUTS) Go to move 1023!

296. (MIMICS TOYMAKER) Go from move 1023!

297. Master switch!

298. You did it. We won!

299. Well done, Doctor! How was it done?

300. My dear boy, it was your very idea.

301. Don't you see? When the Toymaker wanted to move the pieces,

302. he had to command them in a certain tone of voice to make them move.

303. (DODO ) But you did it twice.

304. The first time, I couldn't, because I used my own voice.

305. - I don't see. - I do. The Toymaker wasn't playing!

306. Exactly. I had to imitate the Toymaker's voice to make them obey me, and they did!

307. We'll never see him again, will we, Doctor?

308. Oh, my dear, don't talk too soon.

309. The mind is indestructible.

310. So is the Toymaker.

311. - You mean he can never be destroyed? - But you defeated him.

312. Yes, just at this moment, but there will be other meetings in another time.

313. Then your battle with him will never end.

314. Yes, you're quite right, my dear, but cheer up. After all, we did win the games!

315. - Let's celebrate with these. - With what?

316. These. They're Cyril's sweets. He gave them to me just before the race game.

317. Throw them away. We only took them to stop him wasting time.

318. - All right. - (DOCTOR PROTESTS)

319. This is really interesting. The last present from the Toymaker.

320. I wonder.

321. - Oh! - (DODO ) What's wrong?
