Fewsham finally resists the Ice Warriors openly, fighting with the one about to pewpewpew Zoe for long enough for the rising temperature to kill it off.
The Ice Warrior on Earth goes to the "Weather Control Station" (thank you convenient but stylishly-directed establishing shot) where it pewpewpews a manny and takes over.
The Doctor finally gets back from his holiday wakes up and is able to join Jamie, Zoe and Kelly in getting teleported back to earth by Fewsham. The Ice Warrior leader has not been killed by the heat, and he manages to turn the wheel back down.
The Doctor and Eldred (must live) team up to investigate the foam OF DEATH. Most of the characters, even the Doctor, call it a "fungus" but Jamie calls it "that foam stuff" so I will stick with that. In the laboratory, a balloon begins to inflate and the Doctor tries hurriedly to find something that will neutralise it, including several kinds of acids. The thing that he succeeds with is water... which is already pH neutral, so clearly "neutralise" was the wrong word this time.
Jamie and Zoe head for the Weather Control Station to make it rain water onto the foam, not knowing that is where the Ice Warrior has already been and borked all the controls. They even close and lock the door. thinking to keep the Ice Warrior out...
...Instead they've locked it in with them.
Fewsham secretly broadcasts his conversation with the Ice Warrior leader for the mannys on Earth to see and hear as he asks the leader to give him exposition about their plan to land their invasion fleet on the Moon.
Too late the leader realises the "video link" is switched on as he stares out through the fourth wall at us and the other mannys watching him from Earth. He orders Fewsham to get pewpewpewed. Then they also pewpewpew the video link, presumably because they lack the thumbs with which to turn it off. I sympathise, mew.
The Doctor hears from Eldred (must live) that the Ice Warrior on Earth was last seen headed for the Weather Control Station so runs there himself to try to help Jamie and Zoe. He can't get in because the door is locked, and he gets surrounded by foam. The Doctor makes an "oh noes" face because he is trapped, and that is the cliffhanger.
