Summary
The TARDIS has tracked ripples in the vortex to a spooky old house. Inside, time is jumping around, as evidenced by a grandfather clock and a potted plant. Two ghostly children appear and lead the Doctor and Donna up the stairs to meet "mother". In a room with a fire is an old woman. She begs them to come closer. She grabs Donna, who rapidly ages while the old woman becomes younger.

The Doctor recognises her as the Koltroxa, a myth that drifts endlessly in time until she is trapped at the time of her death. He makes a deal with the Koltroxa. In return for returning Donna's life force and leaving, he will give her some of his life force. The deal is done but the Doctor realises the Koltroxa must be stopped. She feed on more humans to extend her life. She must be found.
