The Doctor and his companion receive a distress call and the TARDIS force-lands itself on the planet of origin.
"Doctor!", Clara yells, "How can we be sure of this?"
"We can't! But I love a good adventure. You never know what's coming up." the Doctor replies.
The TARDIS hits the ground hard. They find themselves on the volcanic planet Pyrovilia. The Doctor swings the door open and looks out onto the burning landscape. The fire lights up his eyes.
"Wow, it's been quite some time since I've seen the Pyrovilians. How many years has it been... maybe... well how long ago was Pompeii?" questions the Doctor.
Clara is puzzled. "Pompeii? That was a volcanic eruption! It killed them all!"
"Yeah, let's not talk about that." the Doctor remembers. He regrets his actions in Pompeii, 79 A.D. with his old companion Donna; he doesn't like endings.
They leave the TARDIS, careful not to step in the pooling lava on the planet's surface. It's stressful; no one wants to end up burning on a planet that's light-years away from home.
While scanning the area for electromagnetic signs, the Doctor warns Clara, "Be careful. This ground is unforgiving. If the TARDIS shields weren't up, we'd be roast like... marshmallows." The trusty sonic screwdriver is having some trouble. "The whole surface is electro-magnetically charged. Someone is trying to keep something in or keep something out. Either way, I have a bad feeling about this."
"How did we receive a distress call then?" Clara asks. "Wouldn't the surface jam the signal?"
"Yes. And that concerns me. Perhaps we-"
CRASH! A spaceship impacts the ground, unexpectedly of course. The Doctor and Clara run to the crash site. "No... this is impossible." the Doctor says under his breath as Jenny climbs out. His daughter, alive.
"Hello Dad!" Jenny says with a smile.
