One day Lillian Robinson robs a stagecoach. As she escapes those pursuing her, she comes across the Fourth Doctor and Leela, who are looking for a circus. She offers to take them to see the Wolf-People, who are a group of people living with wolves. The Doctor is concerned, because there aren't supposed to be wolves in Australia in 1876. The trio observe the Wolf-People from a distance. The Doctor heads for their camp, and upon his return it appears as if a wolf is about to attack him. Lillian tries to shoot it, but her gun explodes, injuring her.
