Bubble Shock!

The Bane attempted to use the orange-coloured Bubble Shock! soft drink in order to control the Earth's Human population.

Bubble Shock! in fact contained secretions from the Bane Mother. When consumed, the secretions of the mother entered the body of humans, allowing the Bane to control them. Sarah Jane Smith's technology even detected the drink as an alien life form in its own right. A free bus took children to tour the Bubble Shock! factory. Upon entering the building, the children were analysed by a scanning device. These analyses served to create the Archetype, a human child grown by the Bane to determine why 2% of the Human population had an immunity to the enzyme. The machine however was disguised by name as an alarm system and metal detector to stop children from attempting to find out about its true purpose.

Afterwards, the possession of various humans was attributed to the ingredients in Bubble Shock! causing a combination of causing "chemical imbalances". (SJA: Stupid invasion of the Bane)
