What's happening" "the flesh is struggling hold on" andrew said trying to help "why why why" "why what" he wonder as they all watch what happened "hello I'm the doctor" "Hold on, hold on, you can stabilise."" I can't" ganger Andrew said in pain "No, listen, hold on. Hold on" "no argh" ganger Andrew is in pain "I think I liked it best when they were being noisy"" Mmm hmm. Doctor, we need you. Get over here" raven said as they try to find a way out " Hello""Doctor" clone Rebecca said looking at him "Cybermats." "Do we have time for this" ganger Andrew wonder "We make time. I'd like more proof that you're me. Cybermats" "Created by the Cybermen. They kill by feeding off brainwaves" ganger Andrew reply "Are you sure there aren't any weapons to can get to, like big guns with bits on" "Yeah, big guns would be good right now" buzzer said as they had non " Why would we have guns? We're a factory. We mine"" Acid" she frowned "Rory, Beth, raven, rose, Rebecca and Amy, they may not trust both of us"" Are you thinking what I'm thinking" ganger Andrew wonder " Inevitably." "I'm glad we're on the Sam" he starts and then Andrew finished "Wavelength. You see, great minds" "Exactly. So, what's the plan" he asked him " Save them all, humans and gangers"" Tall order. Sounds wonderful" he said smiling "Is that what you were thinking? It's just so inspiring to hear me say it.""I know." ganger Andrew larght"Doctor, come on," "So, what now, Doctor" he wonder " Well, time to get cracking, Doctor.""Hello. Sorry, but we had to establish a few ground rules" they both say together as amy looks at the shoes "Formulate a protocol" "Protocol? Very posh" ganger Andrew said smiling "A protocol between us. Otherwise" "it gets horribly embarrassing" ganger Andrew said " And potentially confusing""I'm glad you've solved the problem of confusing" Beth said frowning "That's sarcasm""She's very good at sarcasm" Andrew smiled as they bith said "Breathe""What" amy wonder " We have to get you off this island. And the Gangers too" "Sorry, would you like a memo from the last meeting? They are trying to kill us" cleaves wonder how they going to get on "They're scared""Doctor, we're trapped in here" rose said really hoping she can tell who who " Right, See, I don't think so. The Flesh Bowl is fed by cabling from above" "But where are the earthing conduits" ganger andrew said "All this piping must go down into a tunnel or a shaft or something, yes? With us? Yowza. An escape route" Yowza" amy wonder if he said that "You know, I'm starting to get a sense of just how impressive it is to hang out with me " "Do we tend to say yowza" ganger Andrew wonder" That's enough, let it go, okay? We're under stress "" Stop. Stop. Stop, stop" ganger Jen said as Rory saw her "The army will send a recon team our""We need to find a way to contact the mainland" ganger andrew said "What about Rory and Jen? They are both out there.""No, this place is a maze. Takes a long time to find someone in a maze. I bet you lot have got a computer map, haven't you" andew wonder looking at her " If we can get power running, we can scan for them. Be a lot quicker" "Doctor, you said earlier to breathe" amy said as they start coughing "Very important, Pond. Breathe"" Yeah, well, I'm struggling to" she said as they tried to get out "Acid interacting with the stone"" Creating an asphyxiant miasma" ganger Andrew said " A what" "Choking gas. Extra heavy. If we can get above it" Andrew said as they had to get out "The evac tower. It's this way." "Oh, damned headaches. I'm so tired" ganger cleaves said as she held her head "They could be anywhere. How are we going to find them" "Think about it. With all that gas out there, my guess would be the evac tower. Get above it, try to get power up" she said as they had to get out of here " So? Let's stop them" "It's a narrow doorway. I could defend it easy enough. So can she. Ow" she said holding her head "Oh. I think I coughed so hard, I pulled a muscle or something. It's okay, it's better. It's easing off" "It's midnight. It's Adam's birthday. My son's five. Happy birthday, bud" Jimmy said smiling "Happy birthday, Adam. He'll be so excited. Out of bed at the crack of dawn. It's funny, he's got this wee dance he does when he gets over-excited"" Listen to me. I tried to block the memories, but now I know I must remember. It's the eyes. The eyes are the last to go" ganger Jen said as she tried to warn them "What are you talking about" "When they destroy us, the eyes are the last things to melt. And there's one question in those eyes. Why? Why should we suffer for the sake of human beings" she explained what she means "I heard in India there's over ten million Gangers"" We can reach out. Inspire them to rise up" she wants the humans to go "Revolution? Look, I just, I just want to be left to live in peace, Jen" "They will melt you. Have you become so human that you've forgotten the truth? Don't you remember all the times you were decommissioned, or should I say executed" she wonder " No, we don't remember" "Well, I do. It's us or them" she said as Jimmy nods "She's right" "I have a plan, and it'll destroy them all" she said smiling. Back with the others "Can you really get the power back" "Oh, there's always some power floating around" ganger and drew said as they look around "Sticking to the wires, like bits of lint"" Can you stop finishing each other's" raven wonder as it was getting annoying "Sentences? No probs" "Yes" ganger Andrew nods " No, hang on. You said that the Tardis was stuck in acid, so won't she be damaged" "Nah, she's a tough old thing. Tough, old, sexy" Andrew said knowing the tardis will be OK "Tough, dependable, sexy""Come on. Okay, how can how can you both be real" Beth wonder "Well, because we are. I'm the Doctor""Yeah and so am I. We both contain the knowledge of over nine hundred years of memory and experience. We both wear the same bow tie, which is cool" andrew said smiling "Because bow ties are" "And always will be" Andrew said as they talk about bow ties "But how did the Flesh read you? Because you weren't linked up to the it.""Well, it must've been after I examined it. Thus, a new, genuine Doctor was created " Andrew explained" Ta-da"" No getting away from it. One of you was here first" clone Rebecca wonder "Well, okay. After the Flesh scanned me, I had an accident with a puddle of acid. Now, new shoes. A situation which did not confront me learned self here" "That satisfy you, Pond" ganger anderew said "Don't call me Pond, please. What" "Interesting. You definitely feel more affection for him than me" he said getting angry " No, no, I. Look, you're fine and everything, but he's the Doctor. No offence. Being almost the Doctor is pretty damn impressive" "Being almost the Doctor's like being no Doctor at all" he gets upset "Don't overreact." "You might as well call me Smith" he said " Smith" "John Smith" he said as then rose relised who her Andrew was so she walked to him "I know it's you" "thank hon" he smile as they hold hands "Yes! Communication a go-go"" Find Rory! Show me the scanning tracking screen. Come on, Rory, let's be having you" amy said as they look at the screen "There's no sign of him anywhere"" Come on. Come on, baby, show yourself"she wonder where he was " You're right, there's power" "Well, boys, I don't know much, but I know my own minds. She'll be straight on the comlink to the mainland" ganger cleaves said "Saint John's calling. Emergency" "Let's see if we can intercept" she winder so they could listen in " Saint John's calling the mainland. Are you receiving me, Captain? Come in.We'll never get a signal through this storm. Saint John's calling the mainland. Come in, this is urgent""We're just about reading you, Saint John's. How are you doing? We've had all kinds of trouble here" the captain said replying back "Request immediate evacuation. We're under attack. The storm's affected our Gangers.
