Plot

Colonel White, himself, is targeted by the Mysterons!

Synopsis

Following an unsuccessful attempt to destroy Cloudbase - the Mysterons having set a communications satellite on a collision course - Colonel White announces that, in order to safeguard the lives of everyone else on the base, he is to leave for a secret destination...

The Mysterons, as ever, prove difficult to thwart; and, no sooner has Colonel White made contact with a World Navy submarine, than one of the crew dies in an accident - his Mysteronized duplicate being assigned to look after the Colonel during the voyage!
