As a tannoy voice gives out a warning, the base shakes. The voice of Spidron tells the guards to take Ginge to the processing area. Meanwhile, in a futuristic underground base, two silver-suited figures order Ginge to come with them. Carol wonders if they should warn the saps but John says no-one would believe them unless they revealed who they were, at which point their lives would be over, and if the earth is about to be destroyed it might be kinder not to tell them. Still watched by Steen, Joy tells Lefty that Ginge said two's company and he'll see him back in town. Both Joy and Smithers contact Spidron and the bottom of the tube gives way, sending Ginge down a shaft. Lefty tries to buy another ticket but Smithers says they're closed. Joy runs through the house with Ginger chasing her. Ginger takes his and Joy's tickets and throws Lefty's away it falls beneath the pier. Lefty buys three tickets to a haunted house from Smithers. A mysterious character, Steen, watches them through a telescope. Joy introduces herself to Ginger, who seems smitten with her. John shows everyone scans from a weather satellite. Ginger also tries out the shooting range, while Joy nods to Smithers. Kenny wonders where Ginger and Lefty are and Tim explains they went to Clacton-on-Sea. Ginger directs Joy how to use the rifle at the shooting range. The neutrinos they sent out have x-rayed the earth to find out what is causing the disasters. At the lab, Tim is analysing the information Stephen and Carol gathered. Ginge approaches Joy and tries to charm her. He goes into his booth and contacts someone called Spidron, asking if a channel is available.

A dodgy-looking character, Smithers, nods towards the pair and asks his companion, Joy, her opinion of them. Ginger and Lefty are using a shooting range. Both are in telepathic contact with John. Meanwhile, Carol, clad in an AE suit, is conducting scans in an arctic region, while Stephen is doing the same near a volcano. Tim says a week at most, and as yet he has no idea what to do about it.Īt a seaside resort, Ginger and Lefty ride up to the pier on their motorbikes. Tim states that the number of natural disasters recently has been extremely high, especially in areas previously thought safe.

In the lab, the Tomorrow People view video footage of a series of volcanoes. The Vanishing Earth was the third and final story of Season 1 of The Tomorrow People Original Series.
