Reconnaissance (short story)

Summary
Liz Shaw is left back at UNIT Headquarters to work on a sheaf of calculations, while the Doctor and the Brigadier go to visit the committee responsible for funding UNIT. The Master arrives and hypnotises Liz in telling him everything she knows about the Doctor. Mulling over the information Liz has given him during her hypnotically induced recall of the Doctor's recent adventures, the Master decides how to best make use of all he has learned, considering the Nestene Consciousness and the Silurians to sound very promising for the future. The Master then departs, after making Liz forget he was ever there. Later, Liz comes to an important decision: she will resign from UNIT and return to Cambridge.
