In the [[London]] sewer system, two sewer workers called [[Bill]] and [[David]] are discussing that even though they have both worked down there for years, everything looks as though it has been shuffled around overnight. As Bill is speaking, he notices that David has disappeared without a trace. Calling after his friend, he finds himself accosted by a tall creature, who effortlessly and efficiently beats him to death... | In the [[London]] sewer system, two sewer workers called [[Bill]] and [[David]] are discussing that even though they have both worked down there for years, everything looks as though it has been shuffled around overnight.

[[The Doctor]] is repairing circuitry in the [[TARDIS]]'s roundels, using his new [[sonic lance]]. After he undergoes several technical difficulties, [[Peri Brown|Peri]] enters after putting on a new dress ([[apple]] in hand) and wonders what he is doing; the Doctor is finally repairing the [[chameleon circuit]] - a task he wonders why he never found the time to do before. Peri inquires why he is suddenly so energetic and affirmative in his actions - after all, he has [[The Caves of Androzani|recently regenerated]], and he has proven since then to have a penchant for unstable behaviour. The Doctor seems genuinely hurt by this, but he assures her that he is as stable as he could ever hope to be, and he would never dream of hurting her. | [[Sixth Doctor|The Doctor]] is repairing circuitry in the [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]]'s roundels, using his new [[sonic lance]].

[[Lytton]] is organising what he claims is a £10 million [[diamond]] heist on the [[Bank of England]]. He explains the plan: his merry band of four shall go into the sewers, and use [[plastic explosive]]s to blow a hole in the wall of the vault, escaping with the diamonds, and no-one (in theory) should get hurt. Down they go into the sewers, with [[Payne]] agreeing to stand on lookout by the manhole. As the others move away, no-one notices the tall, black figure silently advancing behind Payne... | [[Lytton]] is organising what he claims is a £10 million [[diamond]] heist on the [[Bank of England]].
