| - Through his vast resources, Chase learned that the seed pods of a Krynoid, an intelligent form of alien plant life, had been found in Antarctica. A collector of rare specimens, Chase became obsessed with obtaining a sample, and successfully acquired one. He allowed the Krynoid to possess one of his henchmen, who began to mutate into a Human-Krynoid hybrid. As the monster grew in size and power, Chase too became possessed by the Krynoid. Convinced of a future where Krynoids are the dominant life form on Earth, Chase aided the monster in earnest. By this time, the Fourth Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith were trapped on Chase's property. Chase eventually captured Sarah and attempted to kill her by throwing her into a compost shredder. The Doctor stopped him, and the two fought, until Chase fell into the shredder and perished.
- Chase was obsessive about his plant collection. He deemed himself the greatest collector of plant life and considered it the most helpless and beautiful thing in the world. He severely disliked his fellow human beings. Among his other eccentricities, he always wore black leather gloves. Chase learned from a government official, Richard Dunbar, that a Krynoid pod had been found in Antarctica. He bribed Dunbar regularly for information. Chase sent his henchman, Scorby, and a scientist, Arnold Keeler, to steal it. The Krynoid came into his possession and it infected Keeler, who slowly changed into a Krynoid himself. Chase would not allow Keeler to get medical attention. He accelerated the process by feeding it and tried to study the plant's biology. He put the Fourth Doctor in his compost machine, intending it to kill him. He was rescued by Sarah Jane Smith. The creature grew bigger and more powerful. Chase began photographing it when it attacked him; he became psychically linked with it, and began to aid it in its plans to destroy animal life and become the dominant lifeform on Earth. Chase captured Sarah Jane and put her in his compost machine; the Doctor freed her and wrestled with Chase. During the struggle, Chase was sucked into the shredder and killed. (TV: The Seeds of Doom)
