C095 The Sun Makers

January 12, 2020

Doc, Leela and K-9 lead a proletarian revolution against space capitalists on Pluto who may be in the business of making suns

* * *

There are two things certain in life: death and taxes. And the people of Pluto decided to put those things together in the name of a more efficient corporate strategy. Unfortunately for Citizen Cordo, Plutonian taxes can be raised at the drop of a hat and he can no longer afford to pay the death taxes for his father. With the cards stacked against him, Cordo decides that there’s no point even staying alive. Fortunately, the Doc and Leela find themselves on Pluto after the TARDIS centre column stops functioning. Leela spies Cordo attempting to throw himself off a building and, with Doc’s help, manages to bring him to safety.

With a new episode buddy in tow, Doc and Leela go to find out what’s happening inside the vast Megropolis on Pluto, where a sinister conglomerate run by The Collector manages — and taxes — every aspect of human life. A group of renegades called The Others, however, oppose the capitalist regime and soon recruit our TARDIS team in their ongoing efforts to stick it to The Man. With the help of K-9 and his awesome weaponry, a class war is all but inevitable!
