Chief Sea DevilThis is our planet. My people ruled the Earth when man was only an ape.
Your people went into hibernation and abandoned Earth to its fate.
Chief Sea DevilOur astronomers predicted that a great catastrophe would end all life on the face of the Earth.
Yes, but the catastrophe that you predicted never happened. And the apes that you left behind on the surface to die became man.
Chief Sea DevilYou know our history?
Yes. Yes, I've encountered your people before. That is why I want to prevent a conflict that can only end in your destruction.
Chief Sea DevilWe shall destroy man and reclaim the planet. Already we have begun to sink his ships.
Yes, and already more ships are being sent to hunt you down.
Chief Sea DevilThe submarine? We have captured it.
You may win a few victories to begin with but eventually you're bound to lose.
Chief Sea DevilThere are many thousands of our people in hibernation in this base. We have other colonies hidden all round the world. We shall be the victors in the war against mankind.
But there's no need for a war! Why can't you share the planet?
Chief Sea DevilThat would be impossible.
The depths of the sea and those areas on Earth where man cannot live can be yours.
Chief Sea DevilAnd man would agree to that?
There's a chance. Wouldn't it be better to try for a peace, than to launch yourself into a war that you cannot possibly win?
Chief Sea DevilI will consider what you have said.
Let me return to the humans, and I will endeavour to make a peace for you.
Chief Sea DevilPerhaps it would be possible...
No! The Doctor is your deadly enemy! He must be destroyed!
