The Doctor adjusted his bowtie.
"Come along Ponds!" he cried out. "I'm going to take you this planet where every single thing is red!"
"I think there's a little shop that sells fezzes," he murmured to himself.
"Won't we stick out a bit?" Rory asked from across the control room.
The Doctor looked at Rory. "Mr. Pond," the Doctor said solemnly. "You will always stick out. Do you think every living thing in the universe looks like you?"
"Now where is Amy?" the Doctor questioned. "I need all hands and feet and maybe an elbow for this trip. It gets a little tricky, you see, we have to go into this breach and over the line and then go back down and under to make the spiral that leads us to where we need to be to set our course to the planet." He glanced at Rory who was now staring at the wall.
"Now Rory! Aren't you listening? I need you to pull this lever back and forth while pushing that button there." The Doctor pointed and Rory started working the TARDIS.
Suddenly the phone rang and Amy came running out. She answered the phone and after a few moments hung up.
The Doctor came running over to Amy. "Amy! What did I say? Never pick up that phone! Remember what happened last time?"
Amy put her hands on her hips. "For your information, Doctor, I invited River to come along with us and that was her giving us her coordinates so we can pick her up."
The Doctor sighed and went over to the control panel and started pedaling and typing. Then the door opened and River strode in.
"Oh god. He's not taking you to that blasted red planet, is he? Whatever he's saying about how great it is, he really just wants to pick up another stupid hat," she announced.
"Hello River," the Doctor said with a forced smile. River walked right pass him and started going to the TARDIS and pulling levers and buttons. Suddenly the TARDIS made an exploding noise and the lights all died and everyone was thrown back.
"What just happened?" asked a nonplussed Rory. "It wasn't me, right?"
River looked at her father. "Why would it be your fault? Unless you were fiddling around with that button right there while I was working the TARDIS—"
The Doctor cut her off. "I," he emphasized "asked Rory to do press down that button. I also on the other hand did not ask you to fiddle around with the controls!"
River shrugged. The Doctor rushed over to the controls to where Rory and River were and started beaming his sonic screwdriver at the panel. River started checking inside the paneling.
The phone rang. And continued to ring.
"Will someone pick up that phone!" the Doctor yelled out. "Amy, what are you doing!"
"Well," Amy said. "You told me not to ever pick up that phone. So I'm listening to you, and not picking it up."
The Doctor sighed and walked over to the phone. "No signal," he murmured and pointed his sonic screwdriver at the phone. When that didn't work, he pointed his towards the screen, and a blurry holographic image started appearing.
"Something must have messed up the TARDIS in that explosion," he stated.
He continued to point his screwdriver at the image until a voice came from the blurry image. "Bwwwlffff," the image kept on repeating.
River brought her head out from where she had been peering into the inside of the panels. "Well, it seems that we just have to wait until the TARDIS can get back to normal. I'd say maybe a couple of hours until then."
She headed to the door of the TARDIS and Amy and Rory followed her. She started unlatching the door when she turned around and looked at the Doctor expectantly.
"Well? Aren't you coming?" she asked.
The Doctor wasn't paying attention. He was staring at the hologram in shock. The blurry image was becoming clearer and a person with a shock of blond hair was coming into focus. "Bad Wolf," she was saying again and again. "Bad Wolf."
