* BadassBoast: Even when tied down and having just been tortured by the Daleks, Leela (while ignorant of the Doctor's history with the Daleks) proclaims that the Doctor is clever and cunning and the Daleks are just "stupid machines", confident that the Doctor will "exterminate" the Daleks.
* DramaPreservingHandicap: There are only a few Daleks present, which gives the Doctor more opportunities to oppose them.
* TheDreaded: As this is a Dalek story, this naturally occurs from both sides, with the Doctor anxious as soon as he learns that the Daleks are involved and the Daleks showing great concern when they learn that the Doctor is present.

London, 21st Century. The Earth is in the grip of an energy crisis, and the GlobeSphere Corporation plans to solve the problem with solar panels on the moon that will beam solar energy to collection points all over the world. The Doctor detects an energy reading that shouldn't exist in that time period and goes to investigate. As the title of the story would suggest, the Daleks are behind the whole thing, and supplying the Earth with energy is not their actual goal...
