On a return trip for the Doctor to [[Whitby]] (where [[Dracula (fictional character)|Dracula]] came ashore long ago), the Doctor and Donna witness a damaged short-range shuttle scout ship heading out to sea. The TARDIS follows the heat trail and lands on board an oil rig in the middle of the [[North Sea]]. Using his [[psychic paper]], the Doctor convinces the crew he is an electrical engineer. | On a return trip for the Doctor to [[Whitby]] (where [[Dracula (fictional character)|Dracula]] came ashore long ago), the Doctor and Donna witness a damaged short-range shuttle scout ship heading out to sea.

Three hundred [[metre]]s down, one of the oil tanks has been ruptured by an unknown missile. Rather than spreading out, the oil escapes in a single stream upwards. The Doctor and Donna race to the rig's barriers in time to see a "blob monster" emerge. The "blob", which the Doctor suggests is actually a creature with a variable adaptive biology, absorbs some of the rig workers, but not before the Doctor gets a sample. The alien molecules are fusing with the oil, which is acting as a new host body. The Doctor attributes its aggression to its pain. | Three hundred [[metre]]s down, one of the oil tanks has been ruptured by an unknown missile.

Donna's suggestion for the Doctor not to "get in a lather" prompts him to concoct a soapy solution (using whatever Donna can find aboard), which is sprayed over the blob. The blob dissolves and the rig crew are returned. As the Doctor explains to Donna that Count Dracula was once believed to be able to take on loads of shapes, news comes in that another alien craft has crash-landed in [[Arizona]]. | Donna's suggestion for the Doctor not to "get in a lather" prompts him to concoct a soapy solution (using whatever Donna can find aboard), which is sprayed over the blob.
