When nothing emerged from the pit, the Doctor speculated the prison was open but not the cell and decided they should withdraw. However the transport tube back to the surface was rendered unusable by the Ood cutting the cable, so the Doctor decided to use the cable to descend into the pit. Inside, he came face-to-face with the Beast and tried conversing, though its consciousness had already escaped to the expedition's archaeologist, Toby Zed. Realising the Beast's jailers thought of the Beast's escape, the Doctor shattered the jar keeping the planet orbiting the black hole, believing Sally would find a way to survive. At the same time, Toby was ejected from the Sanctuary Base 6 rocket by Sally. Though willing to "go along for the ride", the Doctor discovered his TARDIS by accident; he saved Ida, but didn't have enough time to rescue any of the Ood. Towing the rocket safely away from the black hole, the Doctor "swapped passengers" and resumed his travels with Sally.
