"Now I just want to warn you," The Doctor said as he stopped in front of the doors and took a deep breath, "it's bigger on the inside." Before any of them could even process what he could mean by that he pulled the doors wide and entered.
Tucker entered with no hesitation, with so many blinking lights and buttons who could blame him for being so easily tempted.
Sam hesitated, she leaned her head past the door just to check how small it appeared on the outside but eventually entered.
Danny stepped inside and lingered in the doorway, he thought being in the ghost zone was sorta of like this. Technically the portal in the basement was just a short hallway with a glorified doorway but this wasn't like that at all. This was different but he couldn't figure out how.
"So is this room in some kind of pocket dimension?" Danny asked as he fully stepped inside the door closed gently behind him.
The Doctor smiled, "No, we are still where we were."
"Then are we smaller?" he asked grasping at straws. "Or is it more like the room is being compressed into a smaller space while also being bigger?"
"I don't think anyone has tried this hard to rationalize the TARDIS into earth's standards."
Danny sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck "Sorry?"
"Oh don't be! Just means you're thinkin'." the Doctor reached up and pulled a monitor into view using the handle as something to hand off of than to actually show them anything. "So where would you kids like to go?"
"What are our options?" Sam asked leaning against that guardrail.
"Anywhen or where!'
"Do you mean we could watch the moon landing?" Danny asked trying his best to get his hopes up, "Back when it was live?"
"Sure! But why watch it on tv when we can see it from the surface of the moon? Or better yet go visit the moon colony, or a different moon entirely, we aren't just limited to your little corner of the universe."
"I could meet Bram Stoker and get a signed copy of the original Dracula?" Sam asked standing at her full height an excited gleam in her eyes.
"Or maybe somewhere actually cool like a future planet full of hot robot babes?" Tucker grinning mischievously at the thought until Sam smacked him in the back of the head knocking off his hat.
"Sounds lovely, well maybe not that last bit…" The Doctor took a few steps around the center console pulling the screen along with him, "But before all that I'm going to need that fellow you captured earlier and send them back home. Should be a quick trip, in and out sort of thing." he let the screen's handle go and started twisting crank quite vigorously, "I guess now would be a good time to get your names hu?"
"I'm Danny, the guy who's trying to touch everything is Tucker and the girl who doesn't trust anyone is Sam."
"Pleasure. Now you might want to hang on to something before we get going."
"Wait, going? Where... how-?" Sam started but couldn't quite find the words.
"Well to space of course."
"This is a spaceship?" Tucker asked looking around the room as if expecting some tiny green men to come out or space suits to be hanging on the walls.
"Time and space, technically. And I'll have you back here before anyone even notices." then added quickly under his breath "as long as I can get the timing right."
He grabbed hold of a large lever and pulled, "Geronimo!"
