I guess on Doctor Who they don't have something like the Prime Directive.  Vicki is helping to incite planetary revolution because she thinks it might increase her own chance of survival.

The last part wasn't very exciting.  They get captured... but it turns out the revolution was enough to change things.  Actually the Doctor's light bulb explanation made a bit more sense as to why they were only ''sort of'' there in the first episode.  OK, maybe not actual sense, but it's an understandable analogy.  Another weirdness in this episode is that the Doctor was being transformed into a museum piece.  "It's irreversible!" claim the museum guys.  "No one's ever done this before!"  And yet they flip a few switches and he's back to normal in a couple minutes.  I guess they could've just been lying.
So the Daleks know they were there, recognized them for who they were, and knew they took off again.  I know in the more recent Doctor Who series the Daleks are also known to be powerful in travel of time and space, but I think this is something new for the 1960s.
