Spigi (sylv@sterje.com) - Cornelia ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ::teaser:: * Victim walks down a darkened East End street, pulling her coat tighter around her neck It ain't 'alf cold tonight... * Victim shoves her hands deeper into her pockets * Mysterious_Stranger stalks Victim from afar * Victim's breath turns to steam in the air Hello, dearie. Can I offer you a place to stay? * Victim looks at the gentleman and smiles Thank you, love, but I'll be making my own way home tonight. * Victim walks on * Mysterious_Stranger stalks the two people and approaches them with a knife...the two still don't see the man * Gntlman confers with the Mysterious Stranger for a minute, and then leaves the scene... * Victim looks at all the darkened windows on either side of the street What a crime...havin' to be out at this time of night... * Mysterious_Stranger approaches the Victim * Victim hears footsteps and turns around Who's there? * Victim peers into the darkness Is that you, dearie? * Victim looks for the gentleman * Victim shrugs My ears givin' me trouble again. * Victim turns around and keeps walking * Mysterious_Stranger opens a doctor's bag and pulls out a handkerchief with chloroform * Mysterious_Stranger attacks the victim from behind * Victim gasps and tries to pull away * Mysterious_Stranger puts the handkerchief to the victim's nose and mouth * Victim struggles more, briefly, then stops * Victim goes limp * Mysterious_Stranger places a small, metallic pin in the rough shape of an upside down v with a star on it on the victim. * Mysterious_Stranger then transports the body to his ship and leaves ::title credits:: * Sarah_Jane walks into the console room, where Doc6 is fiddling with the controls Are we there yet? London, 1981? * Doc6 fiddles with switches Mmm...hello, Sarah. Still en route, I'm afraid. Just have a seat, we should be arriving in a moment. * Doc6 points to a stool in the corner of the console room * Sarah_Jane sits down * Doc6 flicks a couple more switches Here we are... ::the TARDIS time rotor slows to a stop:: Well, a rather nice landing, if I do say so myself. Now, are we where we think we are? * Doc6 eyes the readings critically Temperature, Earth normal for late autumn. Oxygen content, Earth normal. Gravity, Earth normal. Or, more to the point, when we think we are? When...well, that's a different matter. * Doc6 depresses the door lever regally * Sarah_Jane looks out the door * Doc6 motions Sarah out the door * Sarah_Jane exits 1981? Looks more like 1891, if you ask me. * Doc6 joins Sarah Hmm. You may be right. * Doc6 closes the TARDIS door Excuse me, would you please stay away from the crime scene? Sergeant, send the body down to the coroner's office. * Doc6 looks over with interest Body? What body? blah blah angle of knife wound blah blah murder most foul blah mad man. * Doc6 thinks about that Could you be more...detailed? Ah, you must be the replacement from Whitechapel. * Doc6 nods Yes, that's right. I'd appreciate it if you could show me this body of yours. Ugly costume. Still, you detectives will be flamboyant. * Doc6 looks at the constable imperiously This was stitched by none other than - ah, but you wouldn't want to hear about that, would you? I'm sure he wouldn't, Doctor. As I was saying, this must be some sort of madman with schizophrenic tendencies whose mother abused him. * Doc6 nods I've met a few of those in my time - and I'm sure you have too, Sarah. And who are you? A reporter? Yes, I'm with The Beast. The London Beast, that is, evening publication... Oh, shame, I know no one good at The Beast. Now, The Examiner, that had some good reporters, by Jove. My name is Frued, by the way. Constable Jeremy Frued. I'm Sarah, and this is my friend, the Doctor. So, Constable, just who was this poor, unfortunate girl? Well, that's what we're trying to figure out. We know she wasn't a resident of the area, and we haven't been able to find any ID. We're hoping to put a picture of her face in the newspapers...not that there's much left. Yes, a newspaper - do you happen to have a recent edition? I'm afraid that during our trip, I was unable to obtain one. * Sarah_Jane goes over and looks at the body Please remain a few feet away from the body. Oh, how awful, Doctor, she's been mutilated! And not only that, she's been killed, too. * Sarah_Jane turns away looking sick * Doc6 looks over at Sarah and then joins her Mmm...you're right, Sarah. As are you, constable. And by a very vicious means, as well. * Doc6 bends down to get a closer look I feel she may have been raped as well, although we have no way of knowing that now. Are you sure she should be here? I mean, a lady... I assure you, constable, Sarah is quite capable of fending for herself. It's all right, Constable, I AM a reporter. * Sarah_Jane avoids looking at the body again * Doc6, on the other hand, leans even closer But no woman should have to see that...no person, really. I'll have it sent to the coroner's office. This is very interesting... * Doc6 prods at the wound tissue Hmm, what have you found? Look here, at the incision. * Doc6 points I can't look, Doctor! Yes...very well done, too, like a medical doctor at work. * Sarah_Jane takes a peek anyway It's extremely clean. And the edges have been cauterized. This is definitely a form of advanced technology. Er, yes... Not anything you'd expect to see here! No, no, no, nothing more than a scalpel, none of those medical extras they now have. * Doc6 stands up Is her entire body in this condition? All right, shove it all. What the hell are you talking about? Excuse my French. I think I'd rather wait and find out more before I say anything, constable. I'm sure you understand. * Doc6's blond curls waft in the breeze If you need me, I'll either be at the PD or the coroner's office. Where shall I get in touch with you if I need you or have any relevant information? Do you know of any good bed and breakfasts in the area, constable? Yes, there's the little Betty Pond near Bakers' Street. All right. You'll find me there, then. Well, come along, Sarah. * Doc6 slowly walks toward Bakers' Street * Sarah_Jane follows the Doctor Did you notice anything unusual about the body, Sarah? Well, I certainly didn't expect to see laser burns on a body in 1891. Did you notice the ground? No blood. No, there wasn't...where could it have gone? I'm not sure. But I certainly didn't want to alarm that constable by talking about lasers. * Doc6 and Sarah arrive at the bed-and-breakfast * Sarah_Jane thinks she's seen better accommodations * Doc6 sees the way Sarah is looking at the inn Now, Sarah, this is quite suitable for the late 1800s. Uh, Doctor, are we really going to stay here? Not the best neighborhood, I think. Oh, nonsense, Sarah, we'll be perfectly safe. Besides, I want to stay here in case something develops... * InnKeeper eyes the Doctor and his noticeably female counterpart Will that be one room or, ahem, two? * Doc6 notices the innkeeper Ah, hello. We'll take two rooms, please. Adjoining, if you have them. Yes, we have them. And very safe...if I do say so myself. Splendid, splendid. Will you be staying with us long? I'm not sure... * Doc6 puts down three days' rent Will this be enough for the next few days? That will suffice. Breakfast is served PROMPTLY at seven o'clock. And what fine delights do you offer to treat the taste buds? * Doc6 is very excited at the thought of the upcoming breakfast...mmm... He'll be having tea and dry toast, innkeeper. * Doc6 tuts at Sarah You must watch your waistline, Doctor. Oh, the usual...the usual, er, haven't we met before? * Doc6 frowns I'm not sure about that either. * Doc6 looks closely at the other man * InnKeeper is looking very closely at the Doctor We may have seen one another around town...I come this way every once in a while. Yes, I'm quite sure I've seen you before. Ahem... * Doc6 turns around Hello, constable. I didn't hear you come in. Sorry to drop in on you, but the coroner confirmed my suspicions, and we've ID'ed the girl. Ah, and who might she be? Apparently her name was Jannice Strass. * InnKeeper turns to Sarah Here are your keys, miss. This one is for him. * InnKeeper gives the keys to Sarah She's been living in the area ever since her husband died and she lost everything. Only relative's an aunt. Poor girl! * Doc6 sidles back to the innkeeper Could you put some butter on the side of that toast? * Sarah_Jane glowers at the Doctor's attempt to get more cholesterol Have there been any other murders like this? Well, we're trying to crosspost to several newsgroups and find out...I mean, we're checking in at other police departments. So far, we haven't found out anything other than her address, 1517 Terrace Lane, and the fact that she worked with an opera house at 1776 Washington Lane. Be sure to alert me when you find anything else out. Sarah might be able to assist you - she has a particularly good nose for sniffing out secrets. Ah, yes, well, while we're investigating the apartment, ye' laddie may want to check out the opera house and question her associates. Well, Sarah, how do you feel about a jaunt around town? Shall we visit the aunt? A good idea, Sarah. Constable, do you know the address of the woman's aunt? 321 Middleton Road. But I'm afraid the aunt knows very little. She hasn't seen Jannice since the girl was a child. Oh, you've already talked to her, then? * Doc6 thinks I believe I'll pay a visit to Jannice's aunt, constable. Sarah, would you go to the opera house and look around there? Take one of the constable's men with you. All right, Doctor. Good luck, then, Sarah. I'll meet you back here. * Doc6 smiles at Sarah and goes out of the door Come with me, my dear lady, I'll get us a carriage. * Sarah_Jane follows the constable I'm perfectly capable of hailing a cab, constable! ::the carriage arrives, and Frued and Sarah duck in:: Now, I'll question her associates. I'm sure you're much better as a snoop, so if you want to, you can go search among Miss Jannice's things. After all, a woman's nose can sniff out anything. * Sarah_Jane frowns at the sexist comment, but nods assent * Sarah_Jane mutters about male chauvinist pig police officers ::the carriage arrives at the opera house; Frued and Sarah emerge:: I guess I'd better let you into her changing room. I'll be in the back lounge if you should need me. * Sarah_Jane looks around for a manager Ahem, Manager! Co-workers? Anyone who works at the opera house? Hmmm. Deserted? * Manager enters Yes, constable sir, what can I do for you? Ah, there you are, my dear man! * Sarah_Jane addresses the Manager Hello, I'm Sarah Jane Smith, from The Beast. Could we have a look around? Erm...yes, yes of course. Just be...careful. Yes, I wish to make inquiries about this young lady. * Constable shows Jannice's picture to the Manager We've discovered her dead on the corner of First and Cherry. Oh, my my...that's Jannice. Could you please gather all of the workers who knew Miss Jannice for questioning, and so we can discover more about her strange death? Could you direct me to Miss Jannice's dressing room? Of course... Now, then, can I have a room to use as an office during these interrogations? We have no suspects as of yet, but anything could give us a lead. Well...yes, yes, you can use my office. It's just over here. * Sarah_Jane looks at the manager and gestures toward a passageway Is that the way to the dressing rooms? Up that way. * Manager points towards the dressing rooms * Sarah_Jane starts off in the direction the Manager has indicated Is there anything else I can do for you? Oh yes. If you could please tell me of any associates or admirers that Jannice had, and then take me... ***** ::the way to the dressing rooms is poorly lit - a dark, narrow corridor:: * Winner_Skalter emerges from a room further down the hall, turns, and sees Sarah Oh. 'ello, miss. Can I 'elp you? Yes, where is Miss Jannice's dressing room? 'Course, miss, right this way. * Winner_Skalter leads Sarah further down the corridor She liked 'er privacy, she did. * Stranger creeps through a window from the roof, where he transported * Sarah_Jane skirts the wall; a bad feeling about this place is coming over her Poor Miss Jannice. It's really a shame. Yes, nobody should have to die that way. 'ere, through this door. * Winner_Skalter opens a door for Sarah I used to set up the props for her shows. She was a kind one. * Stranger hides behind a dresser and breathes heavily * Sarah_Jane pauses, hand on the doorknob Did she have any special friends? * Stranger raises a stun gun at the door as it opens, but lowers the gun as the door closes again when Sarah asks the question No, miss, not many. She was a kind one, like I said, but very lonesome. * Sarah_Jane starts through the door 'ere, miss, let me turn on the light for you. * Stranger aims and shoots... ::ending credits for first episode:: Ack...LIGHT! * Stranger teleports away, ghost-like * Winner_Skalter turns on the light and enters the room There you are, miss. Let me know if you need anything. * Winner_Skalter turns and shuffles away I thought I saw something, for just a second there... * Winner_Skalter turns * Sarah_Jane looks around the room It's just these newfangled electric lights, miss. They're very subject to fits and starts. * Winner_Skalter leaves * Sarah_Jane is worried about being alone, but starts to look around through Jannice's things * Sarah_Jane looks in the corner where the Stranger disappeared [LOL - it was really Colin all along! Hey, that's me. Maybe I'm moonlighting ;> ] What's this? * Sarah_Jane bends down to pick up something from the floor * Sarah_Jane picks up a small object about the size of a remote control, made of plastic and metal, with several buttons and LEDs Plastic? In 1891? Not too likely, I'll wager. The Doctor will want to see this... * Sarah_Jane puts the object in her purse ***** * Doc6 arrives at Jannice's aunt's home Ah, a stately residence. * Doc6 admires the flourishing rosebushes and neatly-trimmed hedges * Doc6 picks a small white carnation and puts it in his buttonhole; the carnation is the only stable part of his outfit * Doc6 goes to the door and knocks * AuntieEm opens the door Hello, madam. * AuntieEm looks up and down at the man Here! You're a queer one, aren'tche? My name is the Doctor. I'm working for the local constabulary. Temporarily, at any rate. Well, what do ye want with me? I was wondering if I might ask you some questions regarding the death of your niece? * AuntieEm gets very pale * AuntieEm feels faint * Doc6 puts on his best sympathetic look I, I must go sit for a spell... * Doc6 supports the lady's arm All right, I'll help you in. Thank you, sir. Very nice of ye. I'm happy to be of service. Yer a nice young man... And you are a lovely...young woman. * Doc6 figures a little flattery certainly can't hurt Thank ye...I'm sorry I was so rude... Oh, that's perfectly understandable. I'm sure the subject is difficult for you to talk about. It's just, my niece, my niece, she was very close to me... * Doc6 raises an eyebrow but decides not to comment...yet She's the only family I had left..and she died so recently... Yes, ma'am. Well, ye came here to ask a question...what would that be, lad? I'd like to know anything you can tell me about Jannice. Was she involved in anything unusual, did she have any enemies...her line of work... * Doc6 helps Em to sit on an overstuffed couch She was an actress...and enemies? Well, bein' an actress 'snot a very proper pursuit for a young lady... * Doc6 listens carefully to every word She...she didn't make much for her acting, either....so she had to "supplement" her income in immodest ways... Ah. I see. Did her...side profession...disturb you, if I might ask? Well, lad, I wasn't too keen on it, I can tell ye... * Doc6 leans forward with interest Do you know of anyone that she might have...offended? No, no, but in her line of work, well...she could'na get the respect she deserved...sorry I could not help ye further, but I've got bakin' to do... Well, thank you very much for your help, ma'am. I'll be at the B&B on Bakers' Street if you think of anything else you can tell me. Can I see ye out? Certainly, madam. * Doc6 links arms with AuntieEm * Doc6 walks to the door with her * Doc6 says goodbye to AuntieEm * AuntieEm closes the door suspiciously soon after the Doctor leaves * Doc6 looks about for a carriage * Doc6 shrugs and starts walking toward the Opera House ::time passes:: * Doc6 finally arrives at the Opera House and walks in Doctor! Did Jannice's aunt have anything interesting to say? No, Sarah, unfortunately she didn't. As the constable said, she knew very little. Well, I've found something! Oh? What would that be? * Sarah_Jane takes the device out of her purse I really don't know, but I know it doesn't belong here. Ahhh... * Doc6 takes the object from Sarah I'm not exactly sure what this is. It's a component that could fit in a number of devices - but it's certainly not from this time period. You don't see too many electronic devices in the nineteenth century! It looks to me like a multi-purpose power pack. * Doc6 points out the plug See where whoever owns this little beauty can plug it into any device? * Sarah_Jane feigns interest, though she has already thoroughly examined the device There was something else, Doctor. When we went into the room, I thought I saw something, just a flash, but then it was gone. * Doc6 frowns in thought Just a flash, eh? And not a cloud in the sky. But when I came back out of the room, there were burn marks on the opposite wall of the corridor. Hmm...to quote a friend, this gets curiouser and curiouser! Why don't you show me these burn marks, hmm, Sarah? * Doc6 eagerly sweeps a hand to indicate that Sarah should lead the way * Sarah_Jane leads the Doctor back down the hall * Sarah_Jane finds the spot; the wall is scorched in a vaguely oval pattern Ah, definitely a disruptor blast. * Doc6 fingers the scorch-mark Someone shot at me? It looks like it came from a DZ-400 Jorgenssen Weltinian blaster. I didn't hear anything... Well, the Weltinians are known for their silent weapons technology. I'm not surprised you didn't hear it. From the relative size and angle of the blast, it looks like it came from the corner of that room opposite. * Doc6 points through the open door of Jannice's dressing room That's where I found the power pack. I'm glad he was a poor shot! The Weltinians are also well-known for their precise marksmanship. I think someone's been smuggling arms. So, Sarah, that means our culprit is likely within the nearest few planetary systems of the Weltinians...that narrows it down to several dozen races. Not bad, if I do say so myself. Just several dozen...only a few planetary systems... ::sarcastically:: This should be a snap. * Doc6 does not hear Sarah, fortunately * Stranger enters * Sarah_Jane turns to look at the Stranger Oh, sorry, just coming through to the back where I work. Don't mind me...good day! * Doc6 notices the Stranger * Doc6 hurries forward and seizes the Stranger by the arm Do you know anything about this? * Doc6 shakes the Stranger. "Well?" * Stranger looks at the Doctor, sizing him up * Doc6 eyes the Stranger critically * Sarah_Jane gives the Stranger a suspicious look I think you should come with us. * Doc6 leads the Stranger into Jannice's dressing room Check his pockets, Doctor. Sarah, get the door, will you? * Sarah_Jane closes the door, wondering if the Doctor is going to rough up the Stranger And would you mind holding him for a moment? * Sarah_Jane doesn't think she'll be able to Just don't try anything! * Doc6 gives the Stranger's arm to Sarah and begins to frisk him * Doc6 discovers an infowafer in the Stranger's inside coat pocket Ah-hah... * Doc6 waggles the infowafer threateningly And what might THIS be? * Stranger backs away, frightened, like a cowering animal on the defense * Doc6 looks down his nose at the Stranger I don't know nuthin' about it! You ain't gunna get me, not again! * Stranger runs out the exit * Doc6 runs after the Stranger, but the other man is amazingly fast [or the Doc's incredibly slow...you really *should* exercise more, Doc] * Sarah_Jane shrugs; she never was much good as muscle * Doc6 sighs and returns to the dressing room What is that thing, Doctor? * Doc6 holds the infowafer up and peers at it It's an infowafer, Sarah. It stores information, unsurprisingly. Can you access it? I believe so...I've got some equipment in the TARDIS that reads wafers like this. ::the Doctor and Sarah exit the Opera House and proceed to the TARDIS:: * Doc6 unlocks the TARDIS door *churn* * Doc6 enters the TARDIS, followed by Sarah *churn* *whirmp* *whisp* *crash* * Doc6 examines the central column I don't like the sound of that, Doctor. The old girl is rather excited tonight. * Sarah_Jane hopes the Doctor doesn't mean her oh, and *srulp* ;-) * Doc6 pats the TARDIS console and goes around to the infowafer reader * Doc6 inserts the wafer into a slot * Doc6 waits while the TARDIS analyzes the wafer * Sarah_Jane comes around and looks over (around) his shoulder * TARDISreadout starts showing gibberish (encoded gibberish, actually) * Doc6 punches a few buttons * TARDISreadout says "Access Denied" What?!? * Doc6 is tempted to pound the console but knows it would do more harm than good Security encoded? * MainColumn swoons at the food machine behind the Doctor's back * MainColumn has had a secret affair with the food machine ;-) Very likely, Sarah. I'll just have to try to find the password... Swordfish? * Doc6 closes his eyes and punches buttons at a very fast speed * Doc6 types in "swordfish" *CRASH* *EXPLODE* *WISP* * Sarah_Jane jumps back Oh dear... * Doc6 rushes around the console, fiddling with switches * TARDISreadout stops spouting gibberish, and starts to blow up the console... Down, Sarah! * Doc6 dives behind the hatstand * Sarah_Jane ducks * MainColumn goes down within the mushroom-shaped console and stays down there * TARDISreadout says "Password Failed...Access Denied" Oh - that was rather anticlimactic. * Doc6 gets back up Odd behavior for a data reader. * Doc6 goes back over to the console and assesses it for damage Hmm...seems fine. Wor-king nor-mally...not "fine" * Doc6 telepathically apologizes to the TARDIS Well, OK. Just don't go doing it again, now, you hear? * Sarah_Jane pats the console It will be all right. * Doc6 is pleased to see that Sarah is taking a more personal interest in the TARDIS but continues to concentrate on finding a password rather than say anything to her * TARDISreadout secretly hints that the message is encoded with a boolean series * Doc6 scrutinizes the readout * Doc6 resumes typing in passwords * Sarah_Jane goes over to the food machine and programs it to give her a cookie * FoodMachine splurts out a cookie * Sarah_Jane then gets some carrot sticks for the Doctor * Doc6 sees Sarah with the carrots and grimaces Carrot sticks, carrot sticks, carrot sticks! * Sarah_Jane munches her cookie * Doc6 continues typing, fingers flying * Sarah_Jane considers going back to her room and changing into something pink and ugly * Doc6 considers going into the wardrobe room and changing into something tasteful that actually goes together...naaaah. * Sarah_Jane leaves the console room, re-entering a few minutes later in a suit that could get her arrested in any fashion house in Europe * Doc6 approves Doctor, I believe the TARDIS computer is suffering a lockup. * Doc6 sighs and quits typing Better give it a rest, then. * Spaceship fires above the atmosphere several photon missiles ::the photon missiles head to London, and then to the TARDIS:: * Doc6 hears the launch and turns on the scanner * Doc6 sets the HADS ::the TARDIS is hit by the photon missiles:: ::ending credits for second episode:: Doctor, the scanner...look! ::the TARDIS dematerializes the instant before the bomb makes contact:: * Bomb explodes That was too close for comfort! * Doc6 smiles reassuringly at Sarah The TARDIS should be relocating us now - far away from the blast. Chin up, Sarah Jane! It wasn't my chin I thought I was kissing goodbye! ::the TARDIS rematerializes in a dark alley:: * Doc6 fiddles with some more controls I'm trying to find out where that missile came from... Someplace nasty, I'm sure. ::the form of a spaceship resolves on the screen:: * Spaceship goes into hyperdrive Oh dear, just missed it. I wish I'd gotten a better look at that ship. ***** Damn, they've gone without me. Cowards! * Cornelia_Bloom notices the handsome-looking man standing by himself * Cornelia_Bloom wanders up to Jack Hello, luv. Having trouble, are ye? * Jack goes up to Cornelia Hello, Cornelia. They've gone without us. They what? Those...those...! * Cornelia_Bloom tries to control her rage * Cornelia_Bloom is, after all, a prim Victorian lady - mostly We'd better go into hiding. If the supreme Vidalians come after us, we could get killed...or worse. I've got a mate that might be able to put us up. Good thinking. Why don't I ring her up and see if she's got a spare room? You do that. I'm going to spy on this Doctor fellow. * Cornelia_Bloom nods Right. If he finds out about you, don't tell him anything. Off I go, then. Where shall I get in touch with you? The Diogenese Club. I'll meet you there in an hour, say? How about six tonight? I hardly think it'll take that much time for me to ring up my friend! But, if you say so. I might need the time to fit back into that gentleman's outfit. I'll see you later, then. * Cornelia_Bloom walks back off * Jack heads to the Doctor ***** * Dala_Scunny approaches Skalter Hi, Dala. Hello, Winner. I've got some...unusual news for you. Oooh, gossip? Do tell! * Dala_Scunny lowers her voice to a conspiratorial whisper But first, how's your undercover work at the Opera House going? Everyone at the stage is full of rumors. I can see why. * Skalter leans closer Well, there's been a weird chap called the Doctor asking questions. I think he knows about the operation, but he's been suspecting Jack. * Dala_Scunny thinks I don't believe I've met him yet. He's dangerous. We gotta get rid of Jack...can't kill the Doctor or everyone will get suspicious. But if we kill Jack, we could kill a potential leak. It could mean losing the chance of nabbing the whole organ operation, but things could get dangerous if someone finds out about us. What I was going to tell you - it looks like Jack's still working for them. Do you remember those bodies you asked me to look at? I did an autopsy on the one you managed to send me, and half the internal organs had been removed. Yeah, that would mean he's at it. Hmmm. So, do we kill Jack and lose the whole gang, or wait and maybe get killed ourselves? I don't think we can risk not infiltrating this organization. We've worked too hard, travelled too far, to give up now. OK then, we let Jack live...for now. Why don't you try to get to know the Doctor? If he's working toward the same end as we are, his friendship and help couldn't hurt. * GratuitousCameo walks past the window, wearing a floppy hat, brown coat and scarf * GratuitousCameo is accompanied by an annoying, whiny American Possibly...but I don't know if we could trust him...and even so, is he discreet? I mean, we found out about him...so will Jack. How should I know? I've never even met him. Try surveillance for a while. See what you can find out. OK, will do. ***** * CreepyVoice is mumbling in the bridge of the mysterious Spaceship...it seems to echo faintly from everywhere ***** Doctor, I have the strangest feeling we're being watched. I know, Sarah. And there's more than one of them. Just act natural. * Doc6 strolls with Sarah back towards the B&B * Doc6 whispers to Sarah We need to get to the heart of this, Sarah. Someone was shooting at us from that spaceship, and I want to know who it was. * WS_n_Jack follows them at a discreet distance * WS_n_Jack see one another Why can't nice people ever shoot at us? It's always someone creepy. Green skin, pustules... * Jack fights Skalter when he sees him, but doesn't kill him because he's in a hurry, then runs away * Skalter is dazed What was that, Doctor? What was what, Sarah? I heard something, behind us. * Doc6 turns to look * Doc6 peers into the shadows Show me where, Sarah. Over here. * Doc6 follows Sarah towards Skalter * Skalter tries to find a hiding place, in vain * Skalter looks at the Doctor and Sarah approaching * Sarah_Jane gestures into a particularly deep shadow Hello? Anyone in there? * Skalter looks for his gun Damn, I dropped it. * Doc6 moves slowly toward the shadows * Sarah_Jane spots Skalter You...you were at the opera house! * Skalter backs away Who, me? You know this man, Sarah? * Skalter looks at the two, wondering if he can trust them You opened Jannice's dressing room for me! I...I'm just a stageman...my name's Skalter... Just a stageman...you seemed strangely unsurprised when a blaster bolt came from the room! Dunno nothing 'bout Jac - oops... * Doc6 pounces on Skalter's slip of the tongue, hoping Skalter won't realize that he doesn't know who Jack is What do you know about Jack? Tell me who you are, first. He's the Doctor. *THE* Doctor? Who's the Doctor? I am, my good man. You aren't from this planet...not with those clothes. * Doc6 is surprised by Skalter's forwardness * Doc6 is mildly insulted by Skalter's comment, and straightens his blue polka-dotted tie vainly * Sarah_Jane smooths a wrinkle from her neon pink maternity suit Where do you come from? * Doc6 fidgets, not quite sure what to tell Skalter WELL? That's not important. What's important is, we're trying to help. By ruining my operation? You nearly got me and my associates killed! YOUR operation? * Doc6 lets a note of imperiousness slip into his voice Yes, to stop the organ running in this sector. * Doc6 realizes Skalter must be talking about Jack the Ripper Organ running? Now, that's interesting. Why don't we go somewhere and have a nice, long chat? Yeah, they steal organs for the corrupt and rich of my race, the Vidalians. Jack's originally from Riften 5. Ah-hah! Sarah, what did I tell you? Vidalia is only a mere two solar systems away from Weltinia. * Doc6 realizes maybe he should not be exclaiming this in such a loud voice, given that they are still on the street They supply him with guns and money, and he gets organs... Why don't you come back with me to our lodgings? Bring your associates, too. Perhaps we can collaborate on this. * Lister appears from the shadows, bearing a slip of paper for Doc6 * Doc6 turns in surprise and accepts the slip of paper * Doc6 looks at Skalter Pardon me, but do you work with this person? No... * Doc6 turns to Lister Then who are you? It's one of them...RUN! * Doc6 remembers the slip of paper and opens it Throw it down! * Doc6's eyes narrow as he reads the paper * paper sprays gas * Doc6 coughs and hurls the paper away * Doc6 sees that Lister is nowhere to be seen * Sarah_Jane backs off ::ending credits for third episode:: Quick, back that way! * Skalter grabs his gun that fell and shoots the paper They've found out about us! * Doc6 grabs Sarah by the arm and rushes off toward the mouth of the alley * Sarah_Jane goes back and gets the paper, which has stopped smoking Doctor, look at this! * Doc6 goes back to where Sarah is standing * SlipOfPaper reads: You are next! Beware the Spaceship! Hmm, why would he warn you if he was going to kill you? My guess would be that that man isn't affiliated with the people you're so afraid of. * Doc6 looks up and down the alley, then notices Skalter's scuffed condition You saw Jack just now, didn't you, Skalter? Yes....yes, I did. I think we ought to try and catch up with him. Do you remember which way he went? Umm...lemme see. Was it this way? No...hmm... Quickly, man! We don't have much time. We've got to get after him! I'm still dazed from tussling with him! It would be helpful if you'd trust us, Mr. Skalter I think it was this way. * W_Skalter points * Doc6 nods After you? Well, I don't feel much like tussling with him again. * W_Skalter rubs his shoulder All right, this way. * Doc6 sighs and leads the way * Sarah_Jane follows * W_Skalter wonders if he should follow this oddly-dressed man * W_Skalter thinks Sarah Jane is quite beautiful (rambling) He was 7 feet tall. And strong, or else I could've taken him on. So Sarah, how about coming back to my place to look at my etchings? ::the trio continue to wander the streets of London looking for signs of Jack:: ::Meanwhile, Cornelia, dressed up as a gentleman, waits for Jack in the Diogenese Club:: * Cornelia is drinking a pint of bitter * JackRipper walks through the door, speaks with the host, and moves towards Cornelia's table. Took you long enough, guv. Ah, Cornelia, my dear. I'm sorry. I had...business. Careful, guv! Not too many chaps named "Cornelia" eh? Oh yes. * Cornelia rolls her eyes and wonders why she's working with this idiot Our plans have changed. whuh? I'm afraid we have to step up the operation. So now what's the haps? I get to knock 'em off soon? * Cornelia is beginning to think the evening might be looking up A gentleman by the name of the Doctor has been putting a bit of pressure on my... * JackRipper looks into the distance The Doctor, eh? I've heard of him...fancy class an' all but queer looking. Wears bright colors and odd dress. That your Doctor? And we...I mean, I think he is more dangerous than he looks... An' he looks it. Want me to knock him off, too? I don't believe we have time. * Cornelia didn't survive for the 18 or so years without knowing a bit about who's dangerous and who isn't So what do you want me to do, then? You must come with me. We need more...donations. Whuh? Ah. Donations. Donations are needed. Donations, yeah. All right. * Cornelia gets up * JackRipper suddenly gets a glazed look in his eyes, and stares into the distance... * Cornelia is confused and then follows his gaze Gordon Bennett! Come! We must hurry! * Cornelia follows Jack out quickly ***** * W_Skalter needs to find Dala * W_Skalter wanders off from Doc6 and Sarh Jane * Doc6 looks at Skalter walking away Where's he going? * Dala_Scunny hurries along the street, gathering her coat tighter around her, watching out for Skalter * JackRipper and Cornelia lurk in an alley, waiting for Dala and Skalter You okay then, guv?

I just bumped into the strang...what news? You remember that contact I told you I made in the pathology lab? I don't know, maybe. * Cornelia is getting antsy Shhh, my dear. We must wait. * Cornelia holds back Sure you do. Well, he just came over to the office to tell me that he'd overheard a couple of people talking in the Diogenese Club. It seems that Jack and his lady friend are ready to skip town. * Dala_Scunny brushes a lock of tangerine-colored hair over her ear * Dala_Scunny fingers the staser under her coat Ooof, I already had a tiff with Jack. * Dala_Scunny is concerned What happened? He got the better of me, then these strange people found me and asked where he went. Strange people? You mean you met the Doctor? Did he say he would help? * Dala_Scunny is eager thinking about this prospect He wanted to find Jack. That's all I know. * Dala_Scunny thinks a moment Let's go find him. I want to meet him, see if he really does want to help. It's this way...I think. * Dala_Scunny looks around nervously, as though sensing Jack and Cornelia in the shadows, then walks after Skalter It's a pity we have to kill the man off. I kinda like the look of that. * Dala_Scunny irritatedly brushes more wisps of hair behind her ears and purses her lips Windy nights, hate them... * W_Skalter breaks into a sweat * JackRipper is sorry he has to kill Dala... I'm sick of waiting. If we're going to knock 'em off, let's do it NOW! * Cornelia gets closer to the two * Dala_Scunny gasps sharply as she sees Cornelia Winner - look - * Dala_Scunny points There's someone over there... * Cornelia grabs hold of Skalter What the...?

Fancy meeting you here! Winner! * Dead_Dala hugs Skalter happily * Cornelia pretends she enjoyed this * Cornelia says, "Jolly good fun, eh?" imitating the upper class * JackRipper takes out his scalpel, and, lovingly, with surgical precision, begins to remove Dala's beautiful head We better get goin' then, eh guv? * Doc6 is saying, rather too loudly, "I have a feeling that if we..." * JackRipper and Cornelia steal away into the distance, carying organs in rather alien looking containers Doctor, over there, in the alley! * Doc6 sees the bodies and the quickly-disappearing figures of Jack and Cornelia Come on, Sarah, after them! * Doc6 hurls himself after the fleeing duo Crud! * Sarah_Jane breaks into a run * Cornelia runs faster * Sarah_Jane wonders what she's going to do if she catches up to these brutal murderers Guv, they're catching up to us!

Doctor, they're going to get away! * Doc6 tries to run faster, but it's not easy with that heavy cat pin... yeah, that's it... * JackRipper and Cornelia step through a door which suddenly opens in the middle of the park.... * JackRipper watches the door close, with the Doctor and Sarah still outside * Cornelia slows down and tries to breathe Now, my dear, we are safe. * Cornelia swears in the jargon of the time That was too close! * Cornelia gets really annoyed at Jack, with his suave attitude and perpetual calm * Sarah_Jane stops running as their quarry disappears * Doc6 slows to a stop where the door just was Now what? The TARDIS! We'll have to follow them from there. * Doc6 lopes off toward where the TARDIS re-materialized * Sarah_Jane follows the Doctor to the TARDIS * Doc6 struggles to unlock the TARDIS door quickly, but accidentally drops the key [good thing it wasn't bat's milk] Oh...! Butterfingers! * Doc6 manages to pick up the key again but inserts it the wrong side up Give me that! * Sarah_Jane takes the key and opens the TARDIS door * Sarah_Jane is a bit cranky...PMS Ah. Thank you, Sarah. * Doc6 follows Sarah into the TARDIS * Doc6 hurries to the TARDIS console * Doc6 flips switches frantically I think I've locked on to their signal, Sarah. Hang on for a rough ride. * Doc6 presses the dematerialization switch * Sarah_Jane holds onto the console as the TARDIS lurches ::the TARDIS fades away from the Victorian landscape and rematerializes on board an amazingly well-lit and very antiseptic spaceship:: * Doc6 flips open the scanner I think we made it, Sarah. But made it where? * Doc6 instantly decides he doesn't like this new location It looks like a hospital to me. I've never liked hospitals. <> Too many people trying to tell you what you can and cannot do...it goes against every fiber of my being! Well, better that than an alley. At least we can see where we're going here! True. And, speaking of which, we should see if we can find out where...*they* got to. * Doc6 depresses the door lever yet again * Doc6 carefully walks out of the TARDIS and looks around * Doc6 wrinkles his nose Antiseptic, isn't it? Very. * Evil-Voice whispers, echoing around the ship, but Doc6 can't make out what it was saying... * Doc6 looks around Did you hear that, Sarah? Hear what? * Sarah_Jane looks around, puzzled Oh. I suppose you didn't. Never mind. Let's have a look around, hmm? * Doc6 walks to the nearest door; a very bright yellow light is coming from within * Sarah_Jane follows * Doc6 slowly opens the door and is relieved to see that no-one is inside * Doc6 shields his eyes from the light KEEP AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I *know* you heard *that*! * Sarah_Jane shakes her head * Evil-Voice freezes Doc6 in his tracks, and tries to crush his mind Aagh... * Doc6 fights back Doctor, are you all right? Did you really think you could stop US? * Doc6 thinks of the brief glimpse he had of several shelves of organs lining the walls and gains the strength to overcome the influence's control * Evil-Voice FLOORS Sarah Jane. (She's a lot easier) * Sarah_Jane develops a relationship with the floor Sarah! * Doc6 kneels by Sarah and clips a little metal device to her earlobe There, this should help to prevent exterior mental control over you. * Sarah_Jane sits up What happened? You and your puny attemps are no match for the OOOLANGA! We know you of old, Doctor! * Doc6 has a big huge flashback Your appearance may have changed, but you are still a poor, predictable man... And I can still resist your mind-control attempts! And WE have learned much since our last encounter... * Doc6 frowns. Oh dear. * Doc6 helps Sarah up from the floor And we are now better prepared to spread ourselves, and realize our ambitions! * Doc6 looks at the rows of organs again Ogri...human...Minyan...Weltinian...Urinzan...what *are* your ambitions? We have created an army, seemingly incongruous, but highly dangerous...it was necessary to study human tissues first, but now we have the ability to clone a great number of willing servants, to spread the consciousness of the OOOLANGA!!!!! * Doc6 is alarmed An army? Where, here? Yes, Doctor! In the Genetic Repository below...but, of course, the Prototype is already active... * Evil-Voice illuminates the Monster ::ending credits for fifth episode:: * Doc6 looks the Monster up and down * Monster is composed from bits of Jack's victims It's revolting. * Monster comes from the shadows * Doc6 notices Sarah is very silent, and can hardly blame her - the whole room is a kind of shock to the senses * Doc6 inches Sarah back toward the door Yes, but it is the perfect lifeform. Once our cloning apparatus is started at full peak, we can produce thousands of them at a hatching...and all are part of the OOOLANGA consciousness. * Monster comes closer to Doc6 and Sarah Your cloning apparatus, you say? Where might that be? * Doc6 keeps an eye on the Monster at all times * Doc6 tosses some humbugs at the Monster and hopes it's hungry All can take over key positions of planets spanning the galaxy, and infect the population. We will grow, we will become absolute! OOOLANGA shall be all, and all shall know the OOOLANGA! * Doc6 thinks the OOOLANGA are just as pompous as ever, but wisely refrains from voicing such an opinion But now, Doctor. We grow tired of you. And you think I find this conversation stimulating? Ha! * Evil-Voice silently cues the Monster. * Doc6 folds his arms I'm as bored as you are. * Doc6 forces a yawn * Monster goes to the duo to kill Quite the blowhard, isn't it! * Doc6 turns to Sarah You haven't got one of those cameras I forbade you to bring on your person, would you? What, like this one? * Sarah_Jane pulls a camera from her handbag Marvelous! Thank you, Sarah. Die, humans! * Doc6 takes the camera and manages to figure out how it works * Doc6 turns on the flash Say cheese! * Doc6 snaps a picture of the Monster, with the flash igniting brightly ahhhh! Now, Sarah, run! * Sarah_Jane runs * Doc6 hares out the door, shutting it behind him AFTER THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! * Monster runs after Sarah Do not let them sabotage the Pustule Center! We've got to look for their cloning equipment. Down the hall. * Doc6 pulls Sarah down the hall * Sarah_Jane tries to keep up Oh, look. How convenient. * Doc6 points to a room that declares itself to be the Pustule Center for Cloning I'm glad SOMETHING is convenient here! * Monster runs to catch up and is on their tails * Doc6 loosens his ugly cravat from around his neck * Doc6 opens the door and tosses the cravat in * Ugly_Blue_Tie_With_White_Dots explodes As I thought, it's booby-trapped * JackRipper stumbles into view.... * Cornelia is behind Jack * Cornelia is sick of always being Jack's sidekick though I'll get you. You better run. * Monster tries to catch Sarah by the arm * Sarah_Jane gets out of the way, just in time * Doc6 turns to see the Monster You're not safe yet. * Doc6 draws himself up to his full height and tries to suck in his gut Just what do you think you're doing? * Doc6 stares piercingly at the Monster * Sarah_Jane cowers behind the Doctor I'm trying to kill you. My dear Doctor, we meet at last. * Doc6 turns to see Jack Oh, why now? So hold still so I can! * Doc6 isn't sure whether to look at Jack or at the Monster I see you have met our creation. Very interesting, isn't she? * Sarah_Jane peeks out from behind the Doctor Why? Why do you want to kill us? * Doc6 decides to go for the closer of two evils and stares imperiously at the Monster again * Cornelia holds back I demand that you back off this instant! * Doc6 mentally dares the Monster to disobey Yes, do as the Doctor says! I must do what the Evil-Voice tells me to do. You don't have to do what anyone tells you! You have a free will, don't you? NO, must kill! You MUST destroy them! Now! They threaten the OOOLANGA! Whoops. This puts a damper on the plans, doesn't it? We're not your enemies! * Doc6 points at Jack HE is your enemy! He wants to make you do things that you don't like! Who's this ooolanga? * Cornelia is all confused must kill must kill I don't want to kill! * Doc6 encourages the Monster You can be free! * Doc6 is thinking he's starting to sound like a cliche 1950s Earth cop movie, but hopes it works for the Monster Who's this OOLANGA??? * Cornelia is getting pissed * Sarah_Jane decides to take advantage of Cornelia's confusion The OOOLANGA are our masters...the ultimate gestalt entity. All this time I've been thinking I've been working wiff equals, when it was really you being a conformist! The OOOLANGA are all. Do you really want to be involved in this? I want to be... must kill... free! * Cornelia turns to face Sarah Jane I do what I do to survive. * Sarah_Jane goes over to Cornelia * Doc6 fishes out a bauble from one of his pockets If you quit killing, I'll give you this. * Doc6 holds the bauble out to the Monster These are the enemy of the OOOLANGA. You must kill them! Do we really need to be sidekicks to these bozos? * Cornelia decides to kill Jack and get away scot-free, cuz she's actually a smart cookie DESTROY THEM NOW! Look at the bauble... No! But I don't want to kill them. * Doc6 starts swinging the little bauble You don't want to kill, do you? * Doc6's voice is very persuasive Kill them! I want to kill you. You killed me! * Doc6 is slightly taken aback by the turn this has taken No, he is merely tricking you! Fight it! NO! YOU KILLED ME SO I WILL KILL YOU! * Doc6 tries to stop the Monster No, wait! You don't want to kill! * Sarah_Jane adopts a friendly tone with Cornelia We could blow this pop stand and go shopping or something. * Cornelia quietly goes behind Jack and stabs him in a similar manner to the way she saw Jack kill Dala * Cornelia backstabs Jack before he can backstab her...maybe Jack wasn't planning to do that, even, but Cornelia doesn't know You are such a fool. * Doc6 continues speaking in a slow voice, soothing the savage Monster A fool and a conformist! * Cornelia takes off to find another ship Cornelia? My Cornelia? * Monster strikes at Jack * Doc6 stops, watching the scene sadly * Doc6 turns back to the cloning-room door * Doc6 tosses the bauble into the energy field, causing it to short-circuit * Monster pulls Jack's spine out of his back * Doc6 steps inside * Sarah_Jane follows the Doctor into the Cloning Room * Doc6 suddenly realizes he has forgotten to clip a mental-wave blocker onto his own earlobe * Doc6 fumbles frantically in his pockets, unsure if he can withstand a very strong OOOLANGA attack now that they have grown stronger * Monster goes to cloning room to find Doc6 * Doc6 finally finds the clippy thing Are you all right, Doctor? For the moment, Sarah. * Evil-Pustules rush into the room and descend upon the Doctor. Ah - * Doc6 is smothered in pustules...ewww :6 * Evil-Pustules begin to take over the Doctor's mind! * Sarah_Jane takes the clippy thing from the Doctor's hand and puts it on his ear as he thrashes about * Doc6 breathes more normally as the clippy thing stops the OOOLANGA mental force...but the OOOLANGA use the last vestiges of their power to cause his hand to crush the clippy thing Monster! You have to help us! The cloning equipment has to be destroyed! * Doc6's face turns red as the OOOLANGA begin invading his mind * Monster moves toward the cloning apparatus to smash it * Doc6's eyes flash purple Help us, Monster, please! I'm trying! NO! NO! THE OOOLANGA MUST SPREAD!!!! WE MUST FIND NEW MEANS TO INFECT PEOPLE!!!! Fight the control, Doctor! You've got to survive! * Doc6 is too far gone to hear Sarah...he is only thinking of the might of the OOOLANGA! * Sarah_Jane addresses the evil surrounding her See, you're not as strong as you thought you were. Your Monster no longer obeys you...we WILL defeat you! * Monster gets to the cloning apparatus * Doc6 gets up and stumbles out of the room THE NANITES FAILED, NOW WE MUST USE MORE OVERT METHODS... WE MUST GROW STRONGER! WE MUST BE GREATER IN NUMBERS, SO WE CAN FEED MORE, KNOW MORE, AND BE MORE! YOU WILL BE A PART OF OUR GREAT WORK! YOU MUST OBEY US! * Doc6 echoes "You must obey us!" as he stalks the corridors, eyes flashing purple * Monster smashes the cloning apparatus with her fists You're through, OOOLANGA! You can't grow stronger without your cloning equipment! * Sarah_Jane is trying to intimidate the evil pustules, but it isn't easy * Evil-Pustules swarms onto the Monster, and pushes it off a walkway, into the vast distance below! * Doc6 encounters a stubbled organ-smuggler wandering the halls * Doc6's eyes glint purple and the life slowly starts to drain from the organ smuggler WE ARE NOT FINISHED!!!!!!! * Doc6 laughs and says "We are not finished!" as the smuggler's body turns into a husk and crashes onto the once-antiseptic floor You're killing your own servants...give it up, you're pathetic! We are merely defeated!!!!! No, Doctor! Fight the control! This isn't you. It isn't what you stand for!

I mean, Cornelia? She went away... * Doc6's eyes glint purple as he tries to establish a feeding link between himself and Sarah, but Sarah turns her head before he can connect Doctor, it's been so awful! Now, Sarah, the OOOLANGA aren't awful. Haven't your travels with me taught you to look beyond a person's outward appearance? * Sarah_Jane notices that the Doctor isn't "right" Doctor! Quickly, tell me the coordinates of Gallifrey! Gallifrey? Why...it's... * Evil-Pustules loom closer and closer to to Sarah's back...

You're pathetic. You don't even know how many "o"s there are in your name! Do you hear me, OOOLANGA?

NO! THE OOLANGA MUST TRIUMPH! YOU CANNOT DESTROY THE GENE BANKS! Right, Sarah. You know how to work the TARDIS. * Doc6 sinks, exhausted, onto a soft chair * Sarah_Jane closes the door and starts setting coordinates on the console * Doc6 lapses into silence * Sarah_Jane watches the central column start to rise and fall NO!!! IF YOU DESTROY THE OOLANGA GENE BANKS, YOU WILL SET US BACK 100 YEARS OF WORK!!! YOU MUST NOT DESTROY THE OOLANGA!!! IF YOU DO, WE WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AS SOON AS WE RECOVER. TWICE YOU HAVE DEFEATED US, DOCTOR. YOU ARE TOO DANGEROUS TO LIVE! * Doc6 looks up at Sarah Thank you for your help. Any time... YOU CAN NEVER TOTALLY DEFEAT US. POCKETS OF OOOLANGA WILL ALWAYS EXIST. WE WILL GROW, AND SPREAD, AND YOUR DEATH SHALL BE OUR CHIEF PRIORITY! Are you going to be all right? * Sarah_Jane regards the Doctor with concern I think so, Sarah...I only need some time to recover.

Are you sure you're feeling well? * Doc6 happily takes the scones before Sarah can change her mind You've had quite a work-out, Doctor. That is an understatement. * Doc6 tucks in ::ending credits for seventh episode::
