Sarah Jane Adventures is a spin off of Doctor Who (with Tom Baker) that continues with the character Sarah Jane Smith. So, she is a time-travelling investigative reporter with some special qualities. Sarah is played by Elisabeth Sladen, who worked on a lot of British TV series including sci-fi and fantasy shows.
This was the very first episode, in it, Sarah befriends a new neighbor named Maria. Her and her friend go to a Bubble Shock (a soft drink) event where strange things are happening, like kids quickly getting addicted to it. Sarah follows Maria inside and figures out what's actually going on with the product...
After just moving in, young Maria sees something glowing in her neighbor's yard. She sneaks a peek and finds Sarah communicating with some unearthly being... Like, what the?!
Maria and her friend Kelsey are taken on a tour of the place, where they're constantly handing out free bottles of Bubble Shock!
Sarah follows the kids to the event, and when the time is right (oh, she has a magic lip stick case to help her with certain tasks) she ducks inside the building...
Once inside, Sarah seeks out the head supervisor, Mrs. Wormwood. They have a snarky conversation followed by the demand that Sarah have a taste of Bubble Shock. She refuses the offer and says, I'd rather die first!
Before Sarah leaves the room, she asks Mrs. Wormwood what planet she was from.
Okay, so, Mrs. Wormwood sends out, I guess her brother, to kill Sarah. You can see that they aren't exactly who they seem to be!
As the thing is coming up the stairs, Sarah sprays it with, something! And it changes back to the tour guide at Bubble Shock! He runs away.
Back at the ranch, Mrs. Wormwood is having a conversation with 'mother' what wants to speed up the invasion. You see...
Bubble Shock is an alien drink with ingredients that take over the human mind (drink! drink!) and turns people into pop zombies! Sarah takes the kids and they head back to the toxic Bubble Shock building.
Inside the building, the child that the Bane's have manufactured, and who is now with Sarah, saves the day with a talisman that puts 'mother' in her place. Then, Sarah uses her lip stick case to blow the building sky high, game over, man!
I guess Sarah adopts the boy, but anyway, keep watching the skies because you never know what might drop in from space! Like us, here at The Dungeon!!..

Sadly, Elisabeth Sladen (the actress playing Sarah Jane Smith) died in 2011. :(
