D'you think it's safe?
I doubt it. It's a juddering dimensional portal in a mirror in a Norwegian bedroom.
I need to be honest with you, because I am really grateful for everything you've done for me. Well, for us, you know. Everywhere we've been, all the adventures. Been amazing. But if that is the creature from Sheffield, I will kill it, if I can, for what it did to Grace.
Go back to the TARDIS, Graham.
Nah.
I won't let you do that.
You ain't gonna have a say in it.
You're better than this. You are. You have to be. If you kill him, I can't have you travel with me. That's if you even live.
I understand.
No, you don't. We're gonna rescue hostages. Anything that compromises them is dangerous. And if you kill him, you become the same as him.
Tim Shaw. How long's it been?
Three thousand four hundred and seven years.
I bet the seven really dragged. So, what happened to you?
[Tzim-Sha removes his mask, revealing that he's still got loads of teeth embedded in his face]
You did. You corrupted my recall device, banishing me across the universe to this desolate rock for the rest of my existence, unable to leave without dying. This was my curse, for failure. Or so you thought. I arrived, on the verge of death, racked by the DNA bombs.
But you got more than you could possibly have wished for. The Ux.
The Universe provides.
[Arriving at Graham's house, the Doctor leaves the TARDIS and steps on pieces of a broken chair.]
Whoops.
You've landed on my chair.
Sorry.
You broke my chair.
Well, if you will leave chairs around the place,...
This is my front room!
Earth is now under the control of the Daleks.
No. It's not. You couldn't even control one person.
Humanity will surrender.
It really won't. Trust me. I've seen them in action. They fall off so many things, including the worst of their own people. They're really something. Have you not worked that out yet? Even the recon scout Dalek, the first ones out of Skaro. Humanity bands together, vanquishes you, and buries you for centuries.
Yet I survived.
Yeah. You're good at that. But it won't be enough.
This planet is annexed. The fleet will be summoned.
You don't have the ability. You don't have the strength.
You are weak. Humanity is weak.
Except... I'm not human. Have a scan.
[The Dalek scans the Doctor and discovers she has two hearts.]
[recoiling] Who are you? Identify
Oh, mate. I'm the Doctor. Ring any bells?
Come on then, you lot. Places to go.
When you say "Places to go",... where're you thinking? Where to next?
I was thinking... Everywhere.
[MI6 chief "C" brings the Doctor and company to an unconscious agent in a hospital bed at MI6 HQ]
She was found unconscious on the floor of an aeroplane washroom on a flight to Tokyo. She'd made pre-arranged contact with an informant.
Is she in a coma?
Apparently, it's a little more horrific than that. [hands the Doctor a tablet] Now, I'm told this is your expertise - dealing with the impossible.
You're right. It is impossible. Her DNA's been rewritten, every strand corrupted and reshaped. She's no longer human - just a shell with a human appearance.
Is she gonna live, Doc?
There's nothing of her to live. It's like she's been erased. This is beyond any human technology.
Ah... I was rather worried you were gonna say that. Doctor, the security of this entire planet is at stake. Can we rely on you?
[Aboard Daniel Barton's private jet]
Never been good at sprinting?
I was the last one in every race at school.
No no no, I read your file. You were a champion sprinter.
[thinks for a moment... then smiles] Got me. Well done.
What's going on, Doc?
I don't know.
You'd best take a look out the window.
[They do so, seeing O's house flying next to them]
How is your house out there?
It's all a bit Wicked Witch of the West, but you get the gist. Maybe. Maybe not. Oh come on, Doctor, catch up. You can do it.
[shocked] Ohhh...
[laughs gleefully] That's my name, and that is why I chose it. So satisfying! Doctor, I did say, "Look for the spymaster". Or should I say, spy... Master? [gives a little wave] Hi.
[horrified] You can't be.
Oh, I can be. I very much am.
When I arrange for your death, I expect you to stay dead. How did you escape? How did you end up here?
[realizing] Ah... you don't know. You're not in control of those creatures. I bet you don't even know what they are.
They're called the Kasaavin, and we have interests in common.
You, Barton, and a race you barely know. That's one uneasy alliance. Trust each other, do ya?
Oh, completely. By the way, I bring news from home.
Down, Doctor! [uses the steam machine gun to fire at the Master]
This is not designed for use by a young lady!
Nothing is! And yet, I find myself more than capable! [fires off several more shots, hitting the Master in the arm] All of you, out!
Ada, I really do not approve!
Run all you like, Doctor! You won't get far without a TARDIS!
Don't have a TARDIS. [Ada pulls the pin on a grenade and hurls it at the Master, forcing him to dodge] Do have an Ada.
[The Doctor and the Master have agreed to meet at the top of the Eiffel Tower.]
It's cold up here... It's worse than Jodrell Bank!
Did I ever apologize for that?
No.
Good.
Fighting with the vending machine?
No, it just gave me an electric shock.
[The Doctor checks his palm. There's something moving under the skin]
That's not a shock. It's a hopper virus. This machine's sick and it just passed its virus onto you.
How did I get a virus the same as a vending machine? I'm not a machine.
Hoppers are multi-platform. They'll go for anything. Don't pick at it!
[The hopper heads up Ryan's arm]
Oh, did it just go through me?
It's moving deeper inside you to mutate into your nervous system.
What?
Important not to panic. Humans always have the same reaction to a hopper virus. First you get the wiggly fingers, which is a warning the legs are about to go. [Catches Ryan as he falls] Luckily, this is where my hopper first-aid training kicks in. Need to get rid of these. [Opens the packet of snacks and empties its contents on the floor] Then pinch your ear! [Does so]
Ow!
Then you're going to sneeze!
[Sneezes]
[The Doctor catches the hopper in the packet]
Yes. Now suck your thumb until the hallucinations stop. And remember, they're not real bats. [Helps Ryan to his feet]
[Ryan begins flailing at the invisible bats]
He's fine. He's fine.
Make the bats go away!
You must all go, let them take me.
That's not going to happen.
I have to surrender myself. There's nothing else to be done. This is beyond me.
No.
No?
Nikola Tesla, you're gonna change the world. But first, you're gonna save it.
Don't give up.
Whatever anyone says.
Well, let them talk. The present is theirs. I work for the future. And the future is mine.
[The Doctor at the TARDIS controls, looking serious. Her companions watch from the steps nearby.]
She's doing it again. Spending hours at the controls looking for something. Thinks we haven't noticed.
I'll ask her. [Calls out louder] Hey, Doc, what you looking for?
[looks up surprised] How long have you been there?
Twenty minutes.
You haven't.
What you looking for?
Not looking for anything.
Don't lie to us.
[After a pause] The Master
Why would you do that?
The Kasaavin took him.
Yes. They transported him to their dimension and I can't get there in the TARDIS, but I thought... if he escaped I could track him. There's no sign.
I thought he'd be that last person you'd wanna see.
He left a message for me.
Saying what?
It's personal.
Is that where you go? When you leave us to explore and you say you'll be back in an hour but you never are? Are you out looking for him? Where do you go?
Home. On my own.
Why? Why not with us?
Cuz you ask too many questions!
[The Doctor has just found a buried TARDIS]
You're probably a bit confused right now. I broke the glass. It's all come back to me.
This. What is this?
That's my ship.
What?
Let me take it from the top. Hello, I'm The Doctor. I'm a traveler in space and time, and that thing buried down there is called a TARDIS... You're gonna love this.
