For centuries, the disappearance of the Cybermen from the universe has been a mystery. The Doctor, Jamie and Victoria arrive on Telos, once the Cyber home world, just as an Earth expedition uncovers the entrance to a long-lost control center filled with baffling technology. With the Doctor's help, the archaeological party discovers the last of the Cybermen, frozen and entombed in a vast underground cavern. A threat to no one, if the temperature remains low. But if the traitor in their midst gets his way, things could really heat up...

Parry believes they have found the Cybermen's home, the city of Telos. The Doctor finds a way to get them inside the complex and the group splits up to explore what they've found.

After the deaths, the expedition decide it is best to leave, only to find their ship has been disabled.

- Episode 3 (16 Sep. 1967)
The Cybermen have been resurrected and the Doctor realizes that it was all a trap on their part to capture beings intelligent enough to interpret the codes and operate the equipment to do so.

He rescues all of them except Toberman but the Cybermen unleash their secret weapon.
