The 10th and 11th Doctor was rushing around the room, trying to do as the parliament of the daleks asked; to remove the force field. Jack was busy with the teleport, which will get them back to the tardis.

"Isn't it weird that we look exactly alike? Wait are you me? Like a future version of me?" Clara asked, full of curiosity.

"If I was you, I'm sure I would remember being here," Oswin reminded her.

"Even their voices sound the same, it's… strange," Martha frowned.

"Wait- when we were talking to you before, when we were in the parliament, and you said your name… you said your name was Oswin… Oswin Oswald, "Clara realised, shock on her face.

"Is your surname Oswald as well?" Oswin asked, realising what Clara was saying.

"Maybe you're distant relatives," Jack said, looking up from the teleport controls.

"Have you finished the teleport?" 10 asked Jack, moving away from the control panel.

"Just finished it," Jack confirmed.

"Best get back to the TARDIS," 11 said.

They all stood on the teleport machine, with Jack holding the controls in his hand.

"Back to the tardis, "Jack said, and then he pressed the button which launched the teleport. A second later, they were standing in the tardis.

"My aim was better than I thought, I didn't think we'd actually land in the tardis," Jack commented.

The 11th Doctor walked over to the door. "We better tell the daleks we're here."

When he walked out, Darla came over to him.

"You successfully removed the force field. Well done," she said to him.

"Can I ask for something in return?" He asked.

"Like what?" She asked.

"Information."

"You will have to be more precise. What information do you need?"

"The daleks have a lot of information in their data banks, and I want to know if they have information on the Silence."

"The daleks would like to know why you need this information," Darla said.

"Curiosity."

"The daleks do not know much about the Silence, but they know this: 'Silence will fall when the question is asked.'" Darla told him. "Also, the daleks think you should know that they know something is going on with your timeline. Their memories are changing with you doing things you have already done. They do not believe that it is related to the Silence."

"Why is that?" 11 asked.

"Isn't that for you to work out? Isn't that what you do, Doctor: work out puzzles?"

"I guess so." 11 said. "Now I want to tell you something, Darla von Karlsen. The daleks have used the nano cloud to make you like them. But you are not like them. Do you know what I also know? Daleks, although they don't feel love or happiness, they feel fear. And you have that emotion don't you? And if you can feel that emotion, I know you can try and bring back all the other emotions you had. When I met you before, you said you read your file, which means you don't remember things about yourself. Try and remember. All you need is to remember for one second. Darla von Karlsen, you are not a dalek."

In that second, the Doctor could see it in her eyes; love, pain, happiness, and every human emotion that Darla could muster from her memories. For this second, this precious second, she was not a dalek.

"That box, the one I came here in, it's special. It can protect you. The nano cloud can't get in there. You won't be a dalek," The Doctor said, and then he clicked his fingers. The doors to the tardis swung open, and you could hear the others talking inside. Darla and the Doctor turned towards to tardis, and ran in it. The doors swung shut behind them.

"Doctor, isn't she a dalek?" Jack asked.

"Not anymore," the 11th Doctor smiled.
