Plot

The episode is set on an Earth colony in the future. Terraformers suffer frequent attacks from a native species, the Farakosh, and rely on robots to protect them. Ultimately the Doctor discovers that the robots are cyborgs, using the minds of soldiers presumed dead, connected together telepathically, and that their presence is what had been disturbing the Farakosh in the first place.
