Companions: Leela

Location: Earth, late 19th Century

The Doctor and Lela find themselves in Victorian London, where the game is afoot. The Doctor and Leela run afoul of a gang of Chinese thugs carrying a body down a dark street. They prove to be members of the Tong of the Black Scorpion, worshippers of the ancient god Weng-Chiang. When the body later surfaces in the Thames, Coroner Professor Litefoot is forced to agree with the Doctor's assessment that the corpse is covered by the bites of a giant rat.
