The Corridor.

Grey Dalek 1: Hurry we must return to the laboratory!

Klunking sound.

Grey Dalek 1: It's this way!

Grey Dalek 2: Oh okay!

Grey Dalek 1: Halt! They are returning!

Grey Dalek 2: QUICK! Let's hide in here!

Doors slide open.

Klunk!

Dalek 1: Try again!

Klunk!

Dalek 1: Get in there now or I will exterminate you!

Dalek 2: Okay okay!

Pause.

Doors slide shut.

Sound of Daleks moving along the corridor.

Dalek 1: Leave all the talking to me!

Dalek 2: Yes because so far that has done us no end of good!

Klunk!

Dalek 1: Do you have any better ideas?

Dalek 2: No you carry on, why stop now? Just when I'm hating it!

Klunk!

Other Dalek: KEEP MOVING!

Other Dalek 2: DO NOT TALLKKKK!

Pause.

Doors slide open.

Grey Dalek 1: Those Daleks are inside our old casings!

Grey Dalek 2: They are being escorted to The Emperor!

Grey Dalek 1: Why? Why are they wearing our old casings?

Grey Dalek 2: Do not question! Let us retrieve The Aquamarine paint our redemption draws near!

The Lair Of the Emperor Dalek.

Daleks 1 and 2, (in the Grey casings) The Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek, and the other Daleks are all assembled before the Emperor.

Emperor Dalek: I ordered these Daleks to be detained! There Greyness offends me!

Other Dalek: These Grey Daleks are not those Grey Daleks!

Emperor Dalek: They're not?

Other Dalek: No! These Grey Daleks are the Blingy Gold Daleks who created the Marine Dalek!

Emperor Dalek: I must be missing something here, but unless my eyestalk is deceiving me these Daleks are definitely Grey!

Dalek 1: The Grey Daleks stole our Blingy Gold casings! And the Aquamarine paint!

Dalek 2: We were immobilised!

Dalek 1: We housed ourselves in these discarded Grey casings to pursue the rogue Daleks and recover the paint!

Emperor Dalek: So let me get this straight… These Grey Daleks claim that they are not the real Grey Daleks!

Other Dalek: Correccctttt!

Emperor Dalek: And according to these Grey Daleks and The Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek, the real Grey Daleks are now Blingy Gold!

The Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek: Correct Emperor! I assumed they had spray painted their own casings!

Emperor Dalek: I see…And yet here are the Grey Casings, so that must be incorrect!

The Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek: Yessss! I have failed…

Emperor Dalek: No! Your attempts to recover the Aquamarine paint showed initiative, lovely job on the windows by the way!

The Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek: Thank you Emperor!

Emperor Dalek: So where is the Aquamarine paint?

Dalek 1: Unknown the rogue Daleks have hidden the paint!

Dalek 2: We interrogated the rogue Daleks! They chose to die rather than divulge the paints location.

Emperor Dalek: In the Laboratory The Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek identified the smoking remains of the Blingy Gold cases by their barcodes correct?

The Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek: Correct!

Other Dalek: The barcodes are a match for The Daleks responsible for the creation of The Marine Dalek!

Emperor Dalek: Hmmm…This would seem to lend weight to their story!

Pause

Emperor Dalek: Grey Daleks that aren't really Grey Daleks, explain something to me!

Dalek 1: Whatever my Emperor demands!

Emperor Dalek: You claim to have been immobilised by these Grey Daleks. That they overpowered you, stole your lovely new shiny Blingy Gold casings, and made their escape !

Dalek 1: Correct!

Emperor Dalek: And you claim to have climbed into their Grey casings and pursued them!

Dalek 1: Correct!

Emperor Dalek: And yet The Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek found two Blingy Gold Daleks locked inside the storeroom! Where were you?

Dalek 2: That was us…

Dalek 1: (Interupting) He means that was after the escape!

Emperor Dalek: After the escape?

Dalek 1: Correct! They doubled back!

Pause

Emperor Dalek: Very cunning. But you eventually caught up with them in The Laboratory, and destroyed both the rogue Daleks and your lovely new shiny Blingy Gold casings!

Dalek 1: Correct!

Emperor Dalek: What were they doing in the Laboratory?

Dalek 1: They were um…

Emperor Dalek: They were what?

Dalek 1: um…

Dalek 2: We believe that is where they hid the paint!

Dalek 1: Yes! Correccctttt!

Doors slide open.

The Grey Daleks enter, (they are still in Blingy Gold casings!)

Emperor Dalek: What is the meaning of this interruption?

Grey Dalek 1: We have recovered the Aquamarine paint!

Emperor Dalek: Excellent! Summon the Marine Dalek! The Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek shall spray him at once!

Other Dalek: I obey! (to Other Dalek 2) You will accompany me!

Other Dalek 2: I obey!

Emperor Dalek: That's what I like to see, team work!

Doors slide open and shut.

The Corridor.

Other Dalek: This is now going too far!

Other Dalek 2: Are you afraid?

Other Dalek: Daleks do not show fear! I have no reason to be afraid!

Other Dalek 2: But it was you who released the Grey Daleks from detention! This is all your fault!

Other Dalek: The Grey Daleks said that they had orders to locate the Aquamarine paint for The Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek! I ordered them to transport The Aquamarine paint to the Special Tools Arclight Welding Dalek! They lied! They tricked meeee!

Other Dalek 2: That is not how The Emperor will see it!

Other Dalek: The Blingy Gold Daleks with the paint must be The Grey Daleks in disguise!

Other Dalek 2: It is very probable!

Other Dalek: We must exterminate them before The Emperor learns of my error!

Other Dalek 2: We? WEEE? There is no we in this equation! You are on your own Bitch!

The Lair Of the Emperor Dalek.

Emperor Dalek: You may approach me Daleks! Congratulations on finding the paint!

Grey Daleks: Thank you Emperor!

Klunk!

Grey Dalek 1: After you!

Grey Dalek 2: No you first!

Emperor Dalek: HURRY UP!

Klunk!

Emperor Dalek: That I suppose is close enough! Tell me all about your efforts to locate the Aquamarine paint, was it a team effort?

Grey Dalek 1: Yes! I did the actual searching!

Grey Dalek 2: Whilst I did all the "Seek Locate's!"

Emperor Dalek: Excellent! And where was the paint found?

Grey Dalek 1: In a disused room by the supreme bulkhead!

Pause

Emperor Dalek: Not in The Laboratory?

Grey Dalek 1: No!

Emperor Dalek: I sense someone is LYING!

Pause

Emperor Dalek: Perhaps it would be best to have all four of you exterminated and forgotten about! Well?

Grey Daleks: Emperor we are loyal to you!

Daleks 1 and 2: So are we!

Grey Daleks and Daleks 1 and 2: Worship him! Worship him! Worship him! Worship him!

Emperor Dalek: You need not think that is going to work! Although it did sound good! Take them back to detention! I will decide what to do with them later! Do we have any suicide missions in the outer perimeter?

Other Dalek 3: Not at present Emperor!

Emperor Dalek: Hmmm… Very well escort these Daleks to detention!

Other Dalek 3: Emperor, I cannot escort four Daleks on my own!

Emperor Dalek: Why not?

Other Dalek 3: I am out numbered! It contravenes The Skaro Health And Safety Act !

Emperor Dalek: So did nuking the Thals! What's your point?

Other Dalek 3: I need more Daleks to assist me in my task!

Dalek Emperor: You will escort them alone! If they give you any Kruk Exterminate them! Prisoner Daleks! If this Dalek does not escort you to detention you have my order to Exterminate him! Off you go!

Grey Daleks and Daleks 1 and 2: We obey!
