The Fearmongerer is the fifth episode of Rebellious Projects’ Doctor Who, as The Vampire came before it (wait, did it?). It marked the beginning of the Season 1 finale but can be viewed as a standalone episode.
Synopsis
New recruit Elizabeth Bailey takes a ride in the TARDIS with the Doctor and Simon, as the trio find themselves on a cruise ship in space. However, not all is quite as it seems.
Plot
After a lot of convincing, Simon’s girlfriend, Elizabeth Bailey is invited onboard the TARDIS by the Doctor. The trio end up on a tranquility spa cruise ship, and the Doctor leaves Simon and Liz to do as they please while he finds the control deck, which is currently being attacked by the Fearmongerer (which resembles a black Slitheen but actually isn’t one).
The Fearmongerer demands Captain Vipond to activate the intercom, and when he refuses to do so the Fearmongerer uses his fears against him, threatening to harm Vipond’s family if he doesn’t comply. Vipond gives in, and the Fearmongerer announces that the ship is now on course to crash into the nearest planet, causing distress amongst the passengers as the Doctor rushes to the control deck. The Doctor confronts the Fearmongerer and tries to get a better understanding of how this new entity works, only to find that it feeds off fear.
The Doctor makes his way back to Simon and Liz, with the Fearmongerer in tow, and when he reaches them the Doctor further interrogates the Fearmongerer and after some more exposition, the creature teases that someone is returning, having seen into the Time Lord’s future. After this, they run back to the control deck to try and prevent the ship from crashing, only to find that the controls have been deadlocked. Their only solution is to get everyone to the safe room, which they do.
Everyone apart from Liz manage to get inside, and the Doctor is unable to open the door due to the Fearmongerer having deadlocked it. Simon’s love and anger weakens the Fearmongerer, slowing it down and preventing it from harming Liz despite being mere meters away from her, which allows the Doctor to bypass the deadlock and let Liz into the safe room. The Fearmongerer teleports away, seconds before the ship crash lands and in the wake of the crash only the safe room and the TARDIS remain after it has been thrown out of the ship mid-explosion and locked onto the nearest planet to land on.
The Doctor orders the passengers to remain in the room and wait for a rescue ship to arrive, then he goes to explore the planet they’ve landed on to look for the TARDIS. However, after doing so, the fog clears up revealing the ancient ruins of Gallifrey’s citadel. Another TARDIS materializes in front of them, disguised as a police box which was modelled after the version used by the Doctor's thirteenth incarnation but more rougher than usual, and within from it emerges the Doctor’s arch enemy the Master, who has just escaped from his last encounter with that same incarnation after his failed attempt to sabotage the Doctor's identity via forced regeneration. (TV: The Power of the Doctor) The Doctor, Simon and Liz return to the TARDIS and leave Gallifrey, as the Master regenerates once more…

Trivia
- Upon release of the episode, The Fearmongerer was branded by many as a Black Slitheen, due to its striking resemblance, much to the dismay of TheRebelOfTime and TheGingerDoctor, who detest the nickname.
- The background extras in this episode contain many easter eggs, including: Sonic the Hedgehog, a Cyberman, ItsArcticVision’s Minecraft skin, DT10’s Minecraft skin, UNIT soldiers as seen in Scheme of the Zeons, Alex's and Ginger's Minecraft skins, Strax, Brian the Ood, as well as Nathan Blake and the Twentieth Doctor (as seen in Whoblocks Productions' Minecraft Doctor Who series). These cameos do not mean anything, they’re just there for fun.
Continuity
- During certain scenes of the episode, the Fourteenth Doctor can be seen in the background, roaming around, setting up the next episode even further and that event will be mentioned once more when he ventures to rediscover Gallifrey. (EP: Remnants of Gallifrey)
