Synopsis

The Doctor rescues three children from a spaceship after their parents have committed suicide rather than be captured by the Daleks. Returning the children to their home planet the Doctor is shocked to discover that the majority of humanity now considers the Daleks to be benefactors, the horrors they have inflicted in the past apparently forgotten. Contrary to all logic the Daleks have rescued billions of humans from poverty during a galactic economic crisis, settling them on countless ‘Foundation Worlds’ terraformed for the purpose. As, one by one, the children are taken from the Doctor and he fails to convince anyone regarding the Daleks’ true nature, he discovers a Dalek plot to use a gigantic, ancient alien device of incredible power for their own ends. Not until it is nearly too late does he realise that he is being manipulated by the Dalek Time Controller to bring their plan to fruition.

gollark: And that probably gives at most 50% more.
gollark: If you want more single-threaded performance, then you probably need something dedicated, which would rapidly become ultrahyperexpensive.
gollark: If ~~I~~ you want a *better* one, it will probably cost actual money, and Minecraft is unlikely to benefit much from more cores.
gollark: It's free, because of Oracle's oddly generous free plan.
