"Achilles Heel" is the second story of Season 7 of The Tomorrow People Original Series.
Many non-telepaths feel threatened by telepathy, and when two such people attempt to eliminate the powers of all telepaths, the Tomorrow People must intervene in order to save themselves.
Part 1: A Room at the Inn (23 October 1978)
A Hiter taxi spaceship carrying aliens Yagon, Cantor and Glip approaches Earth. Glip, the pilot, expresses concern about flying to a closed world, but Yagon reminds him that he is being well paid. Upon reaching Earth, the spacecraft crashes into a Watchdog satellite.
In the Lab, TIM alerts the Tomorrow People of the event. John, Elizabeth and Mike jaunt up to the satellite to attempt repair, while Andrew and Hsui Tai jaunt to the Castle Hotel in Scotland.
Meanwhile, the spaceship has achieved orbit but is unable to land due to the collision. Yagon reveals that he has come to Earth to search for a rare element called barlumin, which nullifies telepathic abilities. He plans to use the element in a photonic explosion and flood the galaxy with barlumin radiation, in order to rob the people of the Galactic Federation and other telepaths of their powers. Yagon says that when the Kulthan ruled Earth, they mined and used barlumin. He reveals a map (sold to him by a Kulthan history expert) that shows the location of a barlumin mine located near Loch Ness. To scare away the natives, the Kulthan put a Plaskadron in the lake.
Glip uses a matter transporter to beam down Yagon and Cantor, who are dressed as English gentlemen. The aliens go to the Castle Hotel, where Andrew checks them in. When Andrew hands Yagon the room key, he accidentally touches Yagon's ring and receives a powerful shock. Later, after Hsui Tai performs a song in the dining room, Andrew tries to generate the ghost illusion, but fails. He finds that he is also unable to uses telepathy or jaunt.
The next morning, Yagon and Cantor (now wearing kilts) leave the hotel to search for the mine. Andrew finds that his powers have returned, and upon learning of Yagon and Cantor's strange behavior, follows them.
