Characters

 * Oric leader
 * Amos Burke

Worldbuilding

 * A "frantic" plea for help has been made by the planet Oric. The call came shortly after a spy satellite reported a new build-up of forces on the Dalek planet of Skaro.
 * Adressing the help call to the World President, the Oric leader claimed that the Daleks were intent on space conquest and an attack on his planet was a forerunner to an attack against the Solar Empire.
 * The World Security Council met in Washington to discuss the plea, but informed sources claim no help will be sent at present.
 * Space Station M2 reports that a Mechanoid ship is heading for Skaro although it refuses to say whether this is in answer to Oric's plea.
 * Two Daleks are pictured leaving the Main Council room after a briefing by the Emperor.
 * Los Angeles police have stated that an arrest is expected in the Minnie Cringewobble slaying.
 * The deputy commissioner told a press conference that Captain Amos Burke had received a tip-off implicating someone called the Cat. The Homicide department is checking out the information and is sure the information will lead to an early arrest.
