An evil shape-shifting cactus named Meglos hires some old, goofy space pirates to kidnap Arthur Dent from Earth. The evil cactus turns into an evil Arthur Dent and then into an evil Doctor! The cactus wants to take control of the Double-deckerhedron, a cheap prop of unimaginative power from a nearby planet that's inhabited by badly be-wigged aliens who built the artifact so long ago that some of them forgot and think it’s a god now. They argue about it a lot too.

  • Meglos hired a group of Gaztak mercenaries, led by General Grugger and his aid, Brotadac, to bring him an Earthling. He was able to take on this human's form. Meglos then trapped the Fourth Doctor and Romana in a time loop before taking on the former's appearance. Disguised as the Doctor, Meglos had Grugger and his party take him to Tigella. He hoped to recover the Dodecahedron, a source of great power. Meglos shrank the Dodecahedron and then returned to Zolfa-Thura, where he began to activate it.

  • Meglos hired a group of Gaztak mercenaries, led by General Grugger and his aid, Brotadac, to bring him an Earthling. He was able to take on this human's form. Meglos then trapped the Fourth Doctor and Romana in a time loop before taking on the former's appearance. Disguised as the Doctor, Meglos had Grugger and his party take him to Tigella. He hoped to recover the Dodecahedron, a source of great power. Meglos shrank the Dodecahedron and then returned to Zolfa-Thura, where he began to activate it. On Grugger's request, he planned to destroy Tigella with it. However, the Gaztaks turned against him and locked him up. He was forced out of his body and re-entered his cactus-like form. The Doctor had meanwhile reverted the calculations for the Dodecahedron, causing it to destroy Zolfa-Thura and Meglos.
