The TARDIS lands on a world on which live the highly advanced Elders, and the primitive Savages. The Doctor and his companions are escorted to the Elders' city. Steve and Dodo are givem a guided tour, but Dodo decides to take a detour and stumbles across a secret laboratory.

The Elders have been draining the life force from the Savages and transferring it to themselves. They trap some of the Doctor's life force, but along with it they get some of his attitudes and conscience.
