The best 4th Doctor story. The Doctor, Leela, and K9 land on Pluto in the future. Humanity has been moved out here to mine materials that will make the Usurians rich. The humans are also being taxed to death. And now Independence Day has come! Remember to watch this story just before paying your taxes. About 90 minutes.
