Summary

Plot
The Doctor's TARDIS lands on the water planet Nook, and sinks. The Second Doctor puts on a diving suit and leaves through an airlock in the roof. He finds a crashed space ship that has plunged into the water nearby and goes to see if he can help. The ship is from Earth, and the Captain explains that the ship is almost out of oxygen. The Doctor wonders if the ship could relaunch if it was upright, but the fuses are damaged and there are no spares. The Doctor has a fuse in the TARDIS and goes back to get it.
When he gets there, the TARDIS is being attacked by a giant squid. The Doctor shoots it with his ray gun but it grabs him. He manages to shoot it between its eyes and it lets go. He gets into the TARDIS and locates the equipment before returning to the sunken rocket. The Captain makes the repairs while the Doctor tries to get the ship upright. The task seems impossible until the giant squid reappears. When the Doctor hides underneath the rocket, the squid lifts it into an upright position to reach him. The Doctor shoots the squid again and kills it.
The ship can now lift off and reach the planet Ebor to get more oxygen. The Doctor makes his way back to the TARDIS.
