The Evil of the Daleks ( TV story ) The Evil of the Daleks was the ninth and final story of season 4 of " Doctor Who " and the first to feature companion Victoria Waterfield , played by Deborah Watling . Only episode two remains intact ; the rest of the story has been lost . The story saw the first appearance of an Emperor Dalek , later codified as the position of supreme leadership among Daleks . It was at the time intended to be the Doctor ' s final battle with the Dalek s . Except for a few cameos , they did not appear again in the series for five years . The serial is the first story to feature a fez , later a particular favourite hat for the Eleventh Doctor . Synopsis . The Daleks draft the Second Doctor into distilling the Human Factor . Once implanted , it will make the Dalek race invincible . Jamie ' s faith in the Doctor is stretched to the limit as the Doctor appears to be collaborating with the Daleks . The Doctor has a few tricks up his sleeve , but then again so might the Daleks . Plot . Episode 1 . Having bid farewell to Ben and Polly , the Doctor and Jamie round a corner to discover that the TARDIS has been stolen on the back of a lorry . They pursue the thieves but are too slow . They go into a building and ask a less - than - helpful air mechanic ( Bob Hall ) . They are told it was taken by someone called J . Smith for the Leatherman Company . Unbeknownst to Jamie and the Doctor , a man named Kennedy is listening to their conversation and reporting it back to his boss — Edward Waterfield . The Doctor tells Jamie he suspects Hall due to his uniform being too small and the cover sheet he was shown being different to the rest . They see Hall leave the airport and hail a cab to follow him . Waterfield explains to his assistant Perry that the police box is a special request for a particular client . Perry admires all the traditional looking Victoriana in the shop . Kennedy meets up with Hall but is disgusted to see he has been followed . Kennedy intends to hurt the Doctor and Jamie , but Hall refuses to be part of it . Kennedy knocks Hall out and hides . When the Doctor and Jamie enter , they find Hall . All he can say is , " Where ' s Ken . . . ? " before losing consciousness . As they investigate the place , Kennedy sneaks out , locking them in . When they finally break out , Kennedy is long gone . The Doctor finds a box of matches from the Tri - Colour cafe and deduce s that the matches have been taken from left to right . The only course of action is to go to the cafe and find someone called Ken who is left - handed . When Kennedy meets Waterfield , it is revealed it is a trap . Waterfield ensures that it is the Doctor by showing Kennedy a picture . Waterfield ' s understanding of the cockney Kennedy seems stilted , and he does not understand what he is saying some of the time . He asks Kennedy to fetch Perry . While he is gone , Waterfield goes to a secret room hidden by a book case . The room is sparse and decorated in a much more way than Waterfield ' s office . In the middle of the room stands a Victorian jug . He picks it up and leaves before Perry arrives . Waterfield explains the jug is for a Doctor Galloway — showing Perry a picture of the Doctor — who is to be met at the Tri - Colour cafe and told to meet Waterfield at ten that night . As Perry leaves he notices Kennedy listening at the door and rebukes him . At the Tri - Colour Cafe , Jamie and the Doctor wait . The Doctor is sure it is a trap but says they have nothing else to go on . Perry approaches and tells them to be at the shop at 10 PM . The Doctor goes along with it . At the office , Kennedy hears Waterfield shouting to someone , demanding information and becoming furious when it is not given . Perry reports to Waterfield that the plan has worked . Later that day , Kennedy breaks into Waterfield ' s office and investigates . Soon enough he finds the secret room . He breaks into a safe . As he is looking in the safe and his back is turned , a Dalek appears . The Dalek demands to know who he is . A horrified Kennedy is backed up against the wall as the Dalek approaches . . . Episode 2 . Kennedy attempts to flee and is shot down by the Dalek , which promptly disappears . The Doctor and Jamie enter the antique shop half an hour early and note the antique clocks , which are too perfect to be reproductions but too new to be genuinely Victorian . They also find a bill dated 1866 , but again it is seemingly too new to be genuine . Waterfield discovers Kennedy ' s body and is horrified at the Dalek ' s callous indifference to human life , but the Dalek demands that he follow orders . Despite his shattered nerves , Waterfield lays a trap for the Doctor and Jamie , involving a photo of the two of them ripped in half , and hides awaiting his guests . The Doctor and Jamie encounter Perry . As they make their way into Waterfield ' s office they discover Kennedy ' s body . Perry immediately runs off to fetch the police . The Doctor investigates Kennedy ' s body and cannot fathom the cause of death , but he notes half of the photo of his face in the dead man ' s hands . Jamie discovers the other half of the photo wedged in the box . Before the Doctor can warn him against the suspected trap , Jamie pulls at it , releasing a gas which knocks the pair out . Waterfield moves their prone bodies onto the platform , and the three disappear . The Doctor awakes to find himself and Jamie in a country house . A maid by the name of Mollie enters and gives the Doctor a restorative . On enquiry , the Doctor finds out it is the year 1866 . A man by the name of Theodore Maxtible introduces himself to the Doctor and states he will explain everything . The Doctor is initially angry until Waterfield enters and explains that there is a higher power at play who have kidnapped his daughter in order to control them . Waterfield ' s daughter , Victoria , is indeed prisoner to the Daleks and is being force - fed to keep up her weight . Maxtible and Waterfield show the Doctor into a comparatively high - tech laboratory and explain that they have been researching time travel through the use of static electricity and a chamber lined with mirror s . Through their experiments with static electricity they inadvertently provided entrance to a group of Daleks who took Waterfield ' s daughter Victoria prisoner and forced them to kidnap the Doctor . A Dalek enters and threatens to destroy the TARDIS unless the Doctor assists them with an experiment . Jamie is to be subjected to a series of potentially lethal tests . The Dalek leaves . Maxtible believes that the Daleks may be trying to thwart their pattern of being defeated by humans by becoming more human themselves , using Jamie as their guinea pig . Back in the living room , Mollie enters and wakes Jamie . Ruth , Theodore ' s daughter , enters and introduces herself to Jamie , then leaves him alone . As he is distracted , a ruffian enters and strikes Jamie over the head , rendering him unconscious . Mollie comes in and finds him . She too is attacked . The Doctor is determined to get to Jamie before the Daleks do and leaves with Waterfield . They find a prone figure on the ground . When uncovered , it is not Jamie but Mollie . Maxtible is ordered by the Daleks to start the experiment . The Doctor is examining some dirt on the floor . Waterfield tells him that Jamie is vital to the Daleks plan . The Doctor says if they don ' t find Jamie , the Daleks will take pleasure in killing everyone in sight . In the corridor two Daleks are talking . The first says the humans have been ordered to begin the test . The second says any delay will result in death . The first responds that there will be no delay . . . Episode 3 . The Doctor investigates the room and finds a piece of straw . Jamie has been kidnapped by a ruffian , Toby , at the behest of another houseguest , Arthur Terrall ( the fiancé of Maxtible ' s daughter Ruth ) . Toby and Terrall scrap over the payment . Terrall seems confused and at one point has a dizzy fit . His behaviour vacillates wildly from calm to violent . The Doctor tracks Jamie back to the barn and hears the back end of the conversation . The Daleks prepare for the test to begin , moving Victoria to one end of the south wing of the house . Jamie is puzzled by the Doctor ' s behaviour , as he overhears the Doctor claim that the Daleks are in the house and appears to collaborate with Maxtible and Waterfield . The Daleks argue with Maxtible , demanding a swift start to the experiment . A mute Turkish muscleman , Kemel , a servant of Maxtible , demonstrates his strength by bending an iron bar and breaking a plank . He is told that Jamie is a vicious ruffian and is instructed to guard the house from him . He is taken to a door that is booby - trapped and told to wait for Jamie to pass . The Daleks confirm that they are wanting to acquire the human factor . When the Doctor asks why Jamie , the Daleks say that because of his travels with the Doctor , Jamie is the most intrinsically human person in the universe . Faced with the option of breeding a race of super - Daleks or losing his TARDIS , the Doctor is forced to agree . Maxtible explains that the way to extract the human quality is through staging a rescue of Victoria by Jamie . Ruth enters with Terrall , who reacts very wildly to the presence of Jamie and has another dizzy spell . The Doctor enters , and Jamie blows up at him for conspiring with Waterfield and Maxtible . Jamie , however , succumbs to the Doctor ' s reverse psychology forbidding him from attempting a rescue of Victoria . He has , after all , become seemingly smitten by a painting of Victoria ' s late mother , who he ' s told resembles her daughter exactly . Toby and Terrall meet again and argue about the payment Toby received . As they do , Terrall has a dizzy spell which allows Toby to strike him across the face and steal his money . Jamie meets up with Mollie , who gives him plans for the house . Maxtible explains to the Doctor that , as Jamie tries to save Victoria , his emotions will be recorded and saved . The Doctor is to manipulate his emotions . Toby sneaks into the house to loot it and is exterminated by a Dalek . Jamie is soon in the south wing . He opens the false panel and is only saved from the booby - trap by a bird triggering it first . He rounds the corner and squares off against the fearsome Kemel . Episode 4 . Jamie and Kemel fight at length . Kemel is much stronger , but Jamie is wily . Jamie runs into another room and forces Kemel through an open window , leaving him dangling from the roof . Once Jamie pulls him back in , they come to a truce . A Dalek places a booby - trap using one of Victoria ' s handkerchiefs as bait . Jamie attempts to pick it up , and Kemel pushes him away just before an axe swings down . The Doctor , monitoring their progress , gleefully notes how Jamie ' s courage and mercy have allowed him to survive . Meanwhile , Waterfield is increasingly unnerved by the Daleks ' ruthlessness . He discovers the body of Toby and attempts to stand up to the Daleks , but he is convinced out of it by Maxtible . Waterfield tells Maxtible that as soon as this whole business is over he is going to confess his part in it . As Waterfield begins to move the body , Maxtible secretes a gun in his jacket . Despite not being able to communicate , Kemel and Jamie bond . Kemel manages to show that he likes Victoria and shows Jamie a flower she gave him . They combine forces , determined to help her escape together . Maxtible and Waterfield hide the body in the barn and argue about the plan . Terrall observes all this . Maxtible sends Waterfield back to the house . As Waterfield departs , Maxtible aims the gun at him . Just before he pulls the trigger , Terrall stops him and says this is not the plan . Terrall ' s response to Maxtible ' s protestations is , " You will obey ! " Jamie and Kemel are hiding from the Daleks when Jamie accidentally trips a booby - trap . A spike falls from the ceiling . Jamie manages to alert Kemel before it kills him . The Doctor explains they have now recorded instinct . Jamie and Kemel watch a Dalek guard inspect Victoria , an hourly routine . Kemel arms himself with a mace , but Jamie says that would be suicide and they need to stick together . The Doctor explains that this is an example of the human trait of self - preservation . Later that night , Terrall and Mollie have a violent argument . She has said she heard Victoria ' s voice , which has incensed Terrall . Ruth interrupts and takes pity on Mollie , but Terrall gets even more furious and sends her away . Ruth begs Terrall to go away with her , but he says he can ' t . A Dalek and Maxtible argue . Maxtible tries to stand up for himself and demands that the Daleks fulfil their end of the bargain — the revelation of a secret . They refuse . Maxtible says he will stop allowing them to use his lab as a base , and the Dalek pushes him to the ground before leaving . Ruth enters , much to Maxtible ' s anger , and demands to know what is going on , why Terrall is acting strangely and where Victoria is . Maxtible answers none of these but explains he is working on the alchemical secret of transmuting base metals into gold . After working together to destroy a Dalek by flinging it into a lit fireplace using the rope , Jamie and Kemel climb the balcony of the trophy room , finding Victoria in the closed room beyond . A hidden panel slides open , and a Dalek advances on them . Episode 5 . Jamie and Kemel manage to propel the Dalek off the balcony , where it explodes on the floor below . This , however , sets off an alarm and alerts the Daleks to the presence of Jamie and Kemel . Jamie and Kemel break into the room beyond to finally find Victoria . They barricade themselves in . The Doctor closes in on Terrall , correctly suspecting that he ' s under Dalek influence — his main claim is that no one has ever seen him eat or drink . In his discussion with Terrall , he also discovers that he is mildly magnetic . It is evident that the strain on Terrall is worsening . Once he is alone , Terrall tries to drink a glass of wine but finds he cannot lift the glass to his lips ; he hears a Dalek voice in his head grating the word " Obey ! " repeatedly . Victoria explains to Jamie that she does not recollect how she came to be under the power of the Daleks , but she briefly recalls that she did it willingly . Jamie speculates that it must be an inside job . Back in the main house , Maxtible hypnotises Mollie to remove her suspicions regarding Victoria . Once the job is complete , Maxtible explains to Terrall that that is how he got Victoria to return to the Daleks . Maxtible explains that the Doctor is being watched and that Waterfield is reaching the end of his usefulness . Maxtible has a task for Terrell — to get Victoria from the other wing of the house . Terrall tries to resist , but he is forced to obey . Meanwhile , Waterfield pleads with the Doctor to stop the experiment . He states that once the Daleks have the Human Factor , they ' ll be invincible . The Doctor continues nonetheless , imprinting the qualities that Jamie exhibited into positronic brain s that will be implanted into three test Daleks . He admits he has no idea of the outcome . Waterfield even thinks of knocking the Doctor out to stop his continuation of the experiment , but he argues that it is too far along to go back now . Jamie is telling Victoria the story of how they got to her when a liquid starts to flow under the door , causing it to melt . As Jamie and Kemel set about barricading the Daleks , Terrall sneaks into Victoria ' s room via a secret passageway and steals her away . Jamie and Kemel follow through the passageway to find her . Jamie and Terrall fight until they are discovered by Ruth , Mollie and the Doctor . The fight is halted when Terrall is overcome by one of his fits . The Doctor orders Ruth to prepare a carriage taking her and Terrall as far away from here as possible . The Doctor finds a small black box around the neck of Terrall and liberates him from the control of the Daleks . Kemel finds Victoria unconscious in the lab . A Dalek orders him to carry her into the time travel cabinet . The Doctor and Jamie enter . Jamie is furious with the Doctor for his seeming collaboration with the Daleks and has lost his faith in the Doctor — even saying he wishes not to travel with him anymore . Then the three test Daleks with the Human Factor activate ; rather than being invincible killing machines , they are childlike and playful , forcing the Doctor into a game of trains with them . Episode 6 . The Doctor is overjoyed with the success of the experiment , watching the Daleks enjoying the individual names given to them by the Doctor ( Alpha , Beta and Omega ) and playing trains and roundabouts . The Doctor explains to Jamie they are merely children and introduces them to the concept of friendship . All the Daleks , including the three humanised ones , are summoned back to Skaro now that the experiment has ended . Alpha , Beta and Omega leave the Doctor and Jamie , who go to seek out Victoria . Maxtible tries to get Waterfield to leave , insisting that Victoria must be somewhere around . Once Waterfield leaves , Maxtible discovers a small grey box on the floor . A Dalek emerges and tells Maxtible off for interfering with it . The Dalek orders Maxtible to fetch the Doctor for their " trip " . Maxtible ensures that if he does , the Daleks will reveal their secret . Waterfield overhears all of this and confronts Maxtible . Waterfield and Maxtible fight , and Waterfield ends up being knocked unconscious . The Dalek returns and tells Maxtible that the grey box is a bomb and that he needs to find the Doctor now . Panicked , Maxtible goes to fetch him but cannot . Waterfield awakes to see Maxtible and the Daleks return to Skaro through the cubicle . The Doctor and Jamie find the stunned Waterfield , who manages to tell him what has happened . The trio make it to Skaro seconds before the bomb goes off . Kemel and Victoria are in a cell in the Dalek city . Maxtible arrives to explain to them how they ' ve been transported across the galaxy . Victoria despairs but Kemel resolves to defend her . On the outskirts of the city , the Doctor , Jamie and Waterfield enter the cave system that the Doctor knows so well from his first visit to the city . The Daleks are furious with Maxtible for not bringing the Doctor with him to Skaro . Maxtible shouts at the Daleks for destroying his house , and the Daleks round on him , but an alarm soon rings . The Daleks check on Victoria and Kemel and infer that there must be other humans in the city . Victoria takes hope from this . Meanwhile , the Black Dalek encounters one of the three humanised Daleks , Omega , who proudly boasts how the Doctor gave him his name . Omega is taken somewhere central . Meanwhile , a Dalek escorts Victoria and Kemel to join Maxtible in a small cell . Maxtible is summoned . Victoria and Kemel hear his screams of agony . The Dalek returns for Victoria . In a tunnel , the Doctor , Jamie and Waterfield hear the screams and hurry on . They round a corner and meet a Dalek claiming to be Omega , but the Doctor quickly recognises it ' s an impostor and pushes it over a cliff . A furious Victoria and Maxtible are returned to their cell . Victoria rounds on Maxtible for twisting her arm and forcing her to scream , knowing full well that it was bait for the Doctor . The Doctor , Jamie and Waterfield eventually reach the centre of Skaro . It is not long before they are discovered and summoned to the throne room of the giant Emperor Dalek . The Doctor boasts to the Emperor how the humanised Daleks will soon ferment revolution on Skaro ( his true goal all along ) , and that the Daleks are beaten . The Emperor then reveals that he too has a secret . Identifying the Human Factor has allowed the Daleks to identify the Dalek Factor — the urge to obey , to fight , to destroy and to exterminate . Holding the Doctor ' s TARDIS as bait , they order the Doctor to implant the Dalek Factor across the history of Earth . Episode 7 . The Daleks put the final touches to their experiment . The Doctor is appalled and refuses to comply . They are all put in the holding cell , and Victoria is reunited with her father at last . Jamie and Maxtible argue , and when it looks like it may become physical , the Daleks intervene . Waterfield tries to persuade Maxtible that he should use this power for good , but he won ' t hear of it . In conversation with Victoria , the Doctor states that he is willing to sacrifice all of them to protect Earth . The experiment is ready to begin . A Dalek tries to withdraw his unit from the experiment when another Dalek questions why . Maxtible , once more , demands the transmutation secret . The Daleks show him the machine in action . Spellbound , he walks through an archway that implants him with the Dalek factor . A Dalek reports to the Emperor that a Dalek has questioned an order . The Emperor demands it be found out . Later , as they sleep , Maxtible appears to hypnotise the Doctor into walking through the arch as well . The others wake to see him , and Jamie cries out in vain for him to stop . As he passes through , the Doctor seems to also be mentally converted into a Dalek . Jamie and the others despair , and all hope seems to be lost . Maxtible leads the Doctor to the machinery that controls the process of implanting the Dalek factor . Once Maxtible has gone , the Doctor , clearly not affected by the arch , switches around some of the machinery . He awakens Jamie and tells him to get everyone through the arch the next time a Dalek walks through . A Dalek comes to bring the Doctor before the Emperor . As he leaves , the Doctor gives a subtle wink to Jamie . Jamie and the humans discuss whether this may be another trap . The Doctor and Maxtible are brought to the Emperor . The Doctor , still pretending to be converted , suggests that all Daleks be passed through the conversion arch so that the humanised Daleks will be re - impregnated with the Dalek Factor . As the Daleks begin moving through the arch , the Doctor urges his imprisoned colleagues to go through also . He reveals his double - cross : he switched the circuitry , and all the Daleks passing through the arch are being humanised ( because the Doctor is not human himself , the initial Dalek conversion failed ) . They go through the archway and are unchanged . Waterfield opts to help the Doctor . Chaos erupts in the Dalek city . Humanised Daleks begin defying the non - processed Daleks and are destroyed . The Doctor urges the humanised Daleks to defend themselves and to demand answers from the Emperor . Soon civil war erupts in full force . Whilst encouraging the Daleks into killing the Emperor , Waterfield sacrifices his life to save the Doctor . He makes the Doctor promise he will look after Victoria . The Emperor himself is destroyed by the fighting in the throne room which sets of a process of mutual destruction . Skaro begins to burn . The enraged Maxtible hurls Kemel over a cliff to his death , as he is confronted by Daleks . The Doctor tries to escape Skaro and encounters Maxtible calling for the victory of the Daleks — despite the odds . The Doctor and Jamie escape the melee with the now - orphaned Victoria and watch the city burn , apparently witnesses to the final end of the Daleks . Jamie expresses concern about Victoria being left alone , to which the Doctor replies that she ' ll be going with them as they leave . In the Emperor Dalek ' s burning chamber , a light pulses inside an overturned , wrecked Dalek casing . . . Story notes . Ratings . Original broadcast only
