When an alien creature broke into the TARDIS, it began leeching the ship of power, affecting the function of the fluid links. They got some more mercury in 1931 Chicago, unknowingly defeating the Master's plans in doing so. The Fourth Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith rescued a ship from a pirate fleet of Grakinese Corsairs by exchanging with them some mercury from a fluid link. ( TV: The Mind Robber) When trying to navigate the rings of Saturn, the Doctor was afraid the fluid links would become damaged. The Doctor was forced to take the TARDIS out of reality itself. ( TV: The Wheel in Space) The fluid links overheated again when the TARDIS was caught in a volcanic eruption on Dulkis. ( TV: The Web Planet)Ī malfunction caused the fluid links to explode, filling the TARDIS with mercury fumes and forcing the Second Doctor and Jamie McCrimmon to evacuate the TARDIS. ( TV: The Daleks) While the TARDIS was being brought to the Animus by the Zarbi, Vicki accidentally re-aligned the fluid link, which restored power to the ship.

The link was later confiscated by the Daleks and accidentally left behind in the city, forcing the time travellers to help the Thals fight the Daleks to recover it. The First Doctor falsely claimed that the TARDIS' fluid link-specifically, fluid link K7-had run out of mercury as a ruse to explore the Dalek City. When the Doctor was testing a Type 1 TARDIS, he conspired to scavenge its fluid links as substitutes for his ship's only for the Type 1 to malfunction and trap him in the Void. Trapped in Gallifrey's past, the Doctor had been seeking new fluid links to replace his evaporated ones only for Rassilon to bar him from them, eager to exploit his technical acumen. Rassilon had dabbled at the prospect of subsisting the living metal for mercury, being convinced to do so when the Time Lord known as ' The Other', in reality, the Eleventh Doctor, suggested it as a safer alternative. The earliest fluid links used validium, though rubidium would also function. Fluid links required mercury to function. It’s totally not bringing back feudalism.A fluid link was a component of a TARDIS essential for providing power to the ship.
