----------&----------

Poppy and The Doctor are in a fire engine on their way to the hospital when Poppy's phone starts going off. She reaches into the inner pocket of her blazer and pulls it out

"Poppy? We're at the hospital, but we can't get through,"

"Look in the mirror," Poppy says simply and Amy realises she's wearing a police officer's outfit

"Ha! Uniform. Are you on your way? You're going to need a car,"

"Don't worry. As the Doctor just told me we've 'commandeered a vehicle'," Poppy puts the phone up when The Doctor presses a button and the siren goes off.

----------&----------

Poppy's phone goes off again and she answers

"Are you in?"

"Yep. But so's Prisoner Zero," Poppy doesn't hear from her for a few seconds and gets worried


"Amy? What's happening?" on the other side of the phone, Amy and Rory run into the ward and bar the doors with a broom through the handles "Amy! Tell me what's happening!"

"We're in the coma ward, but it's here. It's getting in!"

"Ask what window they're at," The Doctor tells Poppy

"What?"

"Just do it!"

"What window are you at?" Poppy says into the phone

"What, sorry?"

"Which window?" she repeats

"First floor, on the left, fourth from the end,"

Poppy hangs up and tells The Doctor what Amy told her.

"right, come on then," He helps Poppy up onto the ladder and crawls up it quickly whilst Poppy does it much carefully and enters the window a bit delayed - The Doctor was already halfway through his confrontation

"Okay. You came to this world by opening a crack in space and time. Do it again. Just leave,"

"I did not open the crack," The 'mother' tells him

"Somebody did,"

"The cracks in the skin of the universe, don't you know where they came from? You don't, do you?"

"The Doctor in the TARDIS doesn't know. Doesn't know. Doesn't know!" Prisoner zero swaps into a little girl's voice and taunts The Doctor.

"The universe is cracked. The Pandorica will open. Silence will fall," The voice goes back to normal

"Pandorica? As in...?" Poppy gets interrupted by The Doctor

"And we're off! Look at that. Look at that!" They all look up to where he's pointing. The clock says 0:00

"Yeah, I know, just a clock. Whatever. But do you know what's happening right now? In one little bedroom, my team are working. Jeff and the world. And do you know what they're doing? They're spreading the word all over the world, quantum fast. The word is out. And do you know what the word is? The word is Zero. Now, me, if I was up in the sky in a battleship, monitoring all Earth communications, I'd probably take that as a hint. And if I had a whole battle fleet surrounding the planet, I'd be able track a simple old computer virus to its source in, what, under a minute? The source, by the way, is right here," he holds up Rory's phone and Poppy tries to keep up with what The Doctor's saying. So far, she was bloody impressed.
