After Moriarty begins bombarding Limehouse, the League takes the balloon Victoria up to meet it and the Doctor sends many balloons and motorized kites to do the same. After boarding, Nemo (using a repeating harpoon) and Mr. Hyde fight Moriarty's men while Miss Murray and Quatermain disengage the cavorite from the ship. At closing, Mycroft Holmes puts the league on retainer and fire comes blasting from the sky.
