TEXT: CARNIVAL OF MONSTERS BY: ROBERT HOLMES 5:50pm - 6:15pm [SCENE_BREAK] 1: EXT. MARSH JO: Look! (A gigantic reptilian creature bursts from the wet swampy ground. It has an elongated trunk of a body, six eyes on stalks on the top of its head and a huge red mouth with massive white teeth including several long incisors. It looks down on and screams a roar at the two helpless visitors to its domain. Suddenly the Drashig starts to move forward, sliding along with the exaggerated movement of a snail. It moves its concertinaed body past the DOCTOR and JO and off into the distance.) JO: What a horrible thing! Why didn't it attack us? DOCTOR: It couldn't have seen us, Jo. Must be hunting by scent. JO: Hunting what? DOCTOR: Us, I'm afraid. It's following our outward trail. (JO looks horrified.) JO: But...it'll be at the cave when we get back there! (They suddenly hear another subdued cry of a Drashig.) JO: What's that? DOCTOR: There's more than one of those things about, Jo. Let's go. (They start running across the swamp.) [SCENE_BREAK] 2: EXT. INTER MINOR. SPACE PORT (The assessment committee and VORG and SHIRNA continue to watch.) ORUM: They are escaping. VORG: Nothing escapes the Drashigs! Even that size they terrify me. PLETRAC: How many are there? SHIRNA: In the scope? Oh, just one colony - twenty or so. KALIK: Where do they come from? VORG: One of Grundle's satellites. It's said that many years ago, a battlethruster landed there for emergency repairs. It had a crew of fifty and all the latest armaments. They thought they could hold the Drashigs off
SUMMARY:
The Doctor and Jo return to the Bernice to try and aid their escape but find themselves pursued by the Drashigs.
