n the computer room, Alpha 4 is still watching the record tape. Commander Traynor apparently betrayed the Master Plan by holding up the progress of the diversion of the northern British rivers. Before the tape can conclude, Simon who is still listening from the secret room accidentally causes the door to open alerting Alpha 4 to his presence. Alpha 14 goes in to investigate and sees Simon. Simon shines his torch in 14's face. 14 staggers and collapses. Breathless, Simon escapes from the secret room.
