Suddenly, the Doctor ''explodes'' into his next incarnation. Despite the painfully drawn-out death of Fifth, the brand-new [[Characters/DoctorWhoSixthDoctor Sixth Doctor]] (Creator/ColinBaker) jolts back up, as Peri wonders what the hell just happened to him. The Sixth Doctor looks into the camera and answers her question. The Doctor has definitely changed (for better '''[[AudienceAlienatingEra and]]''' for worse), and on [[MoodWhiplash a moment too soon...]]

The Doctor gives Peri the remaining antidote -- actually worried that he might die permanently rather than regenerate. [[Recap/DoctorWhoS21E7TheTwinDilemma As we all know]], though, [[TheNthDoctor this is not the case]], and as visions of his companions and the Master surround him, he turns into the [[Creator/ColinBaker Sixth Doctor]]. This new chap, with curly blond hair atop his head, gives his sardonic wit a whirl and insults Peri with a condescending remark. Six believes this regeneration is for the better and gives the camera a big, confident, full of himself smile.

The As the Doctor gives Peri the last remaining antidote -- actually worried that antidote, he might accepts his fate. Peri wakes up and witnesses the Doctor on his deathbed, as she begs for the Doctor to not die permanently rather than on her. Fortunately, the Doctor is a Time Lord who can regenerate. [[Recap/DoctorWhoS21E7TheTwinDilemma As we all know]], though, [[TheNthDoctor this is not the case]], and as visions of his companions and the Master surround him, he turns into the [[Creator/ColinBaker Sixth Doctor]]. This new chap, with curly blond hair atop his head, gives his sardonic wit a whirl and insults Peri with a condescending remark. Six believes ''Unfortunately,'' this regeneration is going to be ''very'' different this time around. As the Doctor succumbs to the extremely dangerous poison that slowly ate his insides out, he starts to hallucinate all of his companions...

-->'''Tegan:''' What was it you always told me, Doctor? Brave heart? You'll survive, Doctor...
-->'''Turlough:''' You must survive. Too many of your enemies will delight in your death, Doctor...
-->'''Kamelion:''' Turlough speaks the truth, Doctor. Too many enemies would be delighted...
-->'''Nyssa:''' You're needed. You mustn't die, Doctor...
-->'''Adric:''' You know that, Doctor...you know that, Doctor...

The Doctor calls out to Adric, whose untimely death still haunted the Doctor
for all this time. As the better and gives hallucinations surround the Doctor, they all tell him to not die. Their cries are then drowned out by the hallucination of the Master appearing before the Fifth Doctor's very own eyes.

-->'''The Master:''' No, my dear Doctor. You must ''die!'' ''Die, Doctor!'' '''''Die, DOCTOR!!''''' ''Ahahahahaahaa! Ahahahahahaahaahaha!!'' '''''AHAHAHAHAAHAAHAHAHAA!!!!'''''

Ladies and gentlemen, get ready, because you will see a show this time: Creator/PeterDavison's final story, ending his tenure at an even twenty. Creator/RobertHolmes returns for the first time since Season 16. And Creator/GraemeHarper directs his first, ambitiously opting to abandon generic stage direction that felt static and stilted, get direct with the actors and aim for a bolder, more dynamic filming style. The result? What to this day remains one of the best ''Doctor Who'' serials ever made. It's also ''a colossal bloodbath''.[[note]]We're not kidding. Morgus' secretary and Peri are the sole survivors.[[/note]]
