genius?
It would have been if he had been able
to complete the model.
Think of it. It is already as powerful as Orac,
and it is mobile and it has the circuit influencer.
That android can control anything
that has electronic circuitry.
And without that, it's lethal.
We have to get this into place.
Complete the model to Muller's design.
- And for that you need Orac?
- As bait, to lure it into a trap.
So Orac's the bait. What's the trap?
It'll take about 20 seconds to get this into place.
We must disable it for that long
with a power surge.
From?
The old hydro-plant we found.
If it still works. That generator is driven
by a column of water falling from the dam.
Exactly. The android can influence circuits,
but it cannot stop falling water
turning a generator.
- Who puts on the head?
- It will be Vila, or it will be me.
It'll be you.
Fine.
- Help Soolin to get Orac outside.
- Where do we take Orac?
- The metal footbridge.
- Right.
Remember, keep Orac switched off.
The android can detect its signal.
It's time to go.
- You remember where the generator house is?
- Yep.
- I'll get the bridge wired up.
- Right.
Hurry!
It must have picked up our body heat.
Listen.
(Footsteps approaching)
- That's the way to the main entrance.
- We're trapped.
Leave Orac!
Leave Orac!
- Vila, no!
- Who needs it? It's just a computer!
Orac!
Vila! You've got to get back to the main
entrance and open that door!
- Get back?
- I'll lure it away with Orac.
- You hope!
- Hide over there.
It's been a long time
since this place was operational.
Let's hope it still works.
ORAC: Off, Soolin! Switch off!
Not yet.
It can reach us, control me.
ANDROID: Orac!
ORAC: Accept your domination, Soolin!
Surrender to your God!
Orac!
Soolin!
All clear!
Join us, Soolin. We can fulfil your every desire.
You wouldn't know where to start.
VILA: Soolin! Come on!
Orac!
Orac!
Right, Tarrant. Power on!
Right, Avon.
Pray for water.
Sounds like...
Engage the generator.
A new era, Avon.
Mankind is now mastered
by the fruits of his lust for creation.
Accept slavery or return to the caves,
stripped of all but the wheel,
the plough and the sword
to compete once again as savages against nature.
It's coming!
Power, Tarrant.
I need that power now.
- You should have it!
- Well, I haven't!
Power, Tarrant!
Help me!
(Explosion)
Signal Dayna.
Cut it, Dayna.
Bring Orac.
Quickly, Vila!
Do you think we can trust it? Scabby little rebel.
Switch on and we'll see.
Prognosis, Orac.
Prospect for organic humanoid life
is dependant on one condition.
Conditions still.
Correction. Dependant on one action.
Help me get Avon back to base.
Requisite action must be carried out first.
It is imperative!
Vila, take his feet. Soolin, bring Orac.
- Why?
- Just do it!
Did it work?
The inhibitor head?
- Like a charm.
- Good.
That circuit influencer will be invaluable to us
as a weapon.
Now.
End of problem.
Right, Orac?
Prospects for organic humanoid life
are now secured.
Muller's android?
Gone to the great cyberneticist in the sky.
You fool!
It's superstitious half-wits like you
who hold back every advance we make.
And arrogance, Avon, like yours and Muller's,
which threaten to destroy...
Shut up!
Yes, master.I don't know what this is about, Vila,
but for your sake I hope it is important.
It's important, all right.
- You all quite comfortable?
- Vila.
Then, ladies and gentlemen,
for your edification and delight,
- the voice you all know and love...
- Vila!

- I called you at once.
Now you've had your moment of glory
could we hear what the lady has to say?
Oh, right.
