An alien [[Terraform|terraforming]] device lands on [[Earth | An alien [[Terraform|terraforming]] device lands on [[Earth]] and begins to terraform in a graveyard, creating a swamp-like environment. [[Tenth Doctor|The Doctor]] and [[Rose Tyler|Rose]] follow it to Earth, where they meet [[Raj]] and [[Jim (Gravestone House)|Jim]], who came to the graveyard after seeing the device's flashing lights. Skeletons begin to crawl out of the ground, and the group seek refuge at [[Gravestone House|a nearby house]], the home of [[Ivy Henson]], who the two boys believe to be a [[witch]]. | ||
The Doctor works out that the device is animating the skeletons to act as repairmen. The skeletons finally repair the device and turn to dust, and the effects of the terraforming device begin to wear off, turning the graveyard back to normal and seemingly reversing Ivy's age slightly. | The Doctor works out that the device is animating the skeletons to act as repairmen.
