“The Vampires of Venice”

In this episode: Eleventh Doctor (5), Amy (2), Rory Williams (2)

[Rory is at his stag party; music is playing; there is a paper cake in the middle of the pub. The men cheer for the "beautiful woman" to come out of the cake, however to their surprise the Doctor pops out instead. Rory shakes his head as he realizes who it is.]

Rory! [feedback whines; music stops] That's a relief! I thought I had burst out of the wrong cake. Again. That reminds me, there's a girl standing outside in a bikini. Can someone let her in, give her a jumper? Lucy. Lovely girl. [whispers] Diabetic. [everyone continues staring at him] Now then, Rory, we need to talk about your fiancee. [Rory smiles] She tried to kiss me. [Crowd draws breath; Rory is visibly shocked] Tell you what though, you're a lucky man; she's a great kisser! [Glass smashes; Doctor realizes what he just said, and looks visibly embarrassed and ashamed] Funny how you can say something in your head and it sounds fine.

[To Amy] Okay, we go in, say that you're my daughter—

Daughter! You look about nine!

Brother, then.

Amy No, too weird. Fiance.

It's a lot to take in, isn't it? Tiny box, huge room inside; what's that about? Let me explain...

It's another dimension.

It's basically another dimen-- [realizes] ...what?

After what happened with Prisoner Zero, I've been reading up on all the latest scientific theories. FTL travel, parallel universes...

I like the bit when someone says "It's bigger on the inside!" I always look forward to that. [The Doctor looks annoyed, then grins]

[The Doctor looks in a mirror]

Hello, handsome.

CGCalvierri Girls

Who are you?

[Looks at the mirror and then at the girls, realizing that they cast no reflection]

How are you doing that? I am loving it! You're like Houdini, only five slightly scary girls. And he was shorter... will be shorter. I'm rambling.

CGCalvierri Girls (all)

I'll ask you again, signore: who are you?

Why don't you check this out? [Shows them a card with a picture of the First Doctor; long pause as the girls look confused; he looks at the card and remembers that he has left the psychic paper with Rory] Library card, of course! It's with... he's... [gestures in front of his face to imitate Rory's long nose] ...I need a spare. Pale, creepy girls who don't like sunlight... and can't be seen... ah, am I thinking what I think I'm thinking? But the city, why shut down the city?

CGCalvierri Girls

Leave now, signore, or we shall call for the steward. [smile darkly] If you're lucky.

[camp] Ooh! [They bare long fangs and approach the Doctor; he goes to the stairs, then spins around toward them] Tell me the whole plan! [The girls hiss] One day that'll work. [He backs away] Listen, I would love to stay here. This whole thing... I'm thrilled! Oh, this is Christmas!

Hey, look at this. I got my spaceship, I got my boys... my work here is done. [struts into the TARDIS, head held high]

[scoffs] Uh, we are not her "boys."

Yeah, we are.

[pause] Yeah, we are.

[As the Doctor is about to enter the TARDIS, everything falls silent; there is no sound from anything. Looks back, and is stunned to see every living thing in the Venetian marketplace has mysteriously disappeared].

Rory, listen to that.

Er, what? All I can hear is... silence.

Exactly.

[The Doctor and Rory step back into the TARDIS, the Doctor visibly unnerved]

SRSignora Rosanna Calvierri

[voice-over] There were cracks. Through some we saw silence and the end of all things...
