Lemmy, thinking he saw Mitch returning to the land-fleet from the nearby Martian city, opened the air-lock to let him in. However, when the figure finally entered the land-truck it was found to be McLean, one of the lost members of the wrecked Freighter Ship No. 2. McLean tried to persuade Lemmy to leave the land-fleet and go back to the city with him, but the radio operator, determined to resist the strange hvpnotic power that McLean now possessed, fought with the former crew member and overpowered him. But Mitch was still missing, and as night was falling all hopes of finding the engineer were rapidly diminishing.
