Dragonfire

The TARDIS lands on the trading colony of Iceworld. Although the Doctor claims his landing is innocent, Mel gets him to admit that he is curious about a Dragon, and the treasure that it guards. Whilst on Iceworld the Doctor and Mel run across Sabalom Glitz, who seems to be getting on one of the waitress's nerves.

Kane, who can only survive in the cold, was exiled to the dark side of Svartos, where Iceworld was founded. Iceworld is in fact a spacecraft, but the power source is protected by a laser emitting dragon - the ideal defence against Kane.

As usual, Glitz has money problems. One of his creditors is Kane, who wants the money back. The only way to repay the debt is to go looking for the treasure. When Kane learns the location of the treasure he sends two of his people to retrieve it, but they are killed by a trap.

The Doctor returns the treasure to Kane. Kane planned to pilot Iceworld back to Proamon, his home planet, and exact his revenge. But Proamon no longer exists. Unable to accept this, Kane commits suicide. While Mel leaves with Glitz, Ace travels with the Doctor.
