Davros is dead, or he appears to be, but his value as a genius scientist is outweighing the Doctor's arguments that he is a genocidal maniac, and the corporation in charge of the Orwellian planet they are both on has decided to save him. Then, in an attempt to create the worst Odd Couple sitcom yet, the corporation teams Davros and the Doctor together to solve the planet's looming resource crisis.
Things go predictably bad when Davros rediscovers his Dalek side, but no matter how predictable the plot may be, the writing of this episode is quite strong, and a monologue by Davros about his experience being in a coma with a mind as great as his is a particularly strong section.
