| Tegana has sounded the alarm as the Doctor and his companions plan a near successful escape using a duplicate TARDIS key (also confiscated by Polo) during the near ending to The Wall of Lies. |
Having survived a potential sneak attack from bandits within the bamboo forest (in reality, Tegana's Noghai warriors, the leader of which is efficiently killed by the Mongol warlord, so as to keep his ongoing caravan infiltration plans intact), our heroes are newly arrived at the Cheng-Ting way station. With Ping-Cho keeping their planned departure a secret from Polo, having retrieved one of their two keys from his quarters, our heroes night of escape to the now repaired TARDIS is once more thwarted by the devious Tegana, who sounds the alarm and holds Susan hostage. Marco now has both TARDIS keys, but the Doctor has prior warned him not to try and enter 'the flying caravan', as it will destroy itself.
