She and the Ghostmaker robbed a film of the Night Travellers from [[Jonathon Penn]]'s flat. She filled the bath there and submerged in it. Afterwards, the pair travelled to the old cinema and played the tape releasing the remaining Night Travellers. [[Jack Harkness]] filmed them all and exposed the tape, destroying them as they were just a film.
