Him and Jack continue to work on the Tadis most of the night. He sends the Tardis into the Time Vortex to continue the work and Jack moves to the other side to work on another panel. He hears Rose, say "Hey you," and he slides out to see her standing there in his shirt, holding Kiam in her arms.
"Hey," he replies and slides back underneath.
She crouches down and pulls him out again. "Listen we need to talk."
He looks panicked. "Jack" he calls out and then slides back under.
She grabs his coat and pulls him back out as he looks at her surprised. "No shut up, I've just got a question is all."
Jack looks up from where he is working. "You okay over there?"
"Yeah fine. No problem." He calls over to Jack.
Rose stands up still holding Kiam and puts her hand on her hip. She looks at Jack, "What are you doing.
"I'm helping the Doctor, um it's humming is that okay?"
He slides underneath and then slides out again. "Yeah it's fine were just entering conceptional space. Imagine a banana or actually don't cause it's not curved or like a banana forget the banana. Rose, do we have any bananas?" Not waiting for her to answer he slides back underneath.
"Um is he helping you fly the Tardis." She ask him.
He slides out again. He looks at Jack ignoring Rose. "Okay attach thermal cuplinks to seven and eleven." He stands up and starts pressing buttons on the console, with Rose following him.
"How come he gets a go. You never let me have a go anymore."
"Uh Doctor don't, seriously, Mickey says he let her drive his car once."
"Yeah to the end of the road" She scoffs.
"Yeah where according to Rose, there was an unexpected house."
"Awe, Mickey's jealous cause I passed my test first time." she grins.
"He says you cheated. You wore a skirt."
"I didn't wear a skirt." He had been moving around the console during their conversation but as she says this he looks over to see her legs. He stands up quickly and moves to the other side of the console.
"No, no I did wear a skirt, but it was any old skirt."
"You've ever seen Rose drive Doctor? He ask him.
"No," he calls back.
"Neither did her driving examiner." He jokes
"Actually it was a skirt," Shes says, "A short one." She bends over and sets Kiam, who was beginning to fuss, down. Suddenly, there is a crashing sound and the Tardis shakes and goes dark.
"What was that" Rose asks.
"Jack did you drop the thermal cuplinks?"
"Sorry," Jack calls back.
"Aw how did you do that. I told you don't drop them. I specifically mentioned not dropping." He storms around the console pushing buttons trying to figure it out.
Rose looks sheepish. "I-i-it was my fault" she stutters.
He looks at her "Of course it wasn't your fault." he says as he storms past her again
"Kin-kinda was her fault" Jack admits.
"How could it be her fault." He asks looking at him.
"Cause it was your shirt, and me bending over to set our son down."
"Jack!"
"Sorry," Jack says but his face doesn't show it.
"Well we've landed Emergency materialization, we should be fine it should have locked onto the safest space available."
He flicks a lever and the lights come on to reveal another Tardis sitting inside the first. They all three head over to it.
"Doctor what's happened?" Rose asks.
"Safest spot available the Tardis has materialized inside itself"
"Is that suppose to happen," Jack asks.
"Take a guess."
"No," Jack answers.
"That's the one"
He goes over to the police box and rubs his hand on the side.
"Whoa what are you doing?" Rose asks.
"I have absolutely no idea" He opens the doors and goes into the police box that is sitting there and comes in through the main doors with Jack and Rose.
"Uh, okay that is a bit weird." Rose says.
He opens the main Tardis door again and sticks his arm through. It comes out of the Police Box sitting inside. He then goes all the way through and closes the door."
"That is actually pretty cool." Jack says.
"Oh, I'm glad your entertained, Jack, now that were stuck here for all eternity at least you won't be bored." He says angrily.
"Wait what were stuck," Rose says.
"The inside of the Tardis is now joined to the outside of the Tardis worst then a time loop, a space loop. Nothing can enter or leave this ship ever again." He says and glares at Jack.
As he says that the main door opens and closes and he turns around surprised to see Rose and Kiam entering as she still stands beside him.
"Okay kids this is where it gets complicated." The second Rose says.
"Who the hell are you," Rose asks the Second Rose as they head over to her.
"I'm you from your future," The second Rose answers.
He gets close to the new Rose. "Tell me exactly what's happened."
"Well the exterior shell of the Tardis has drifted forwards in time. if you step into the box now, you step into the control room a tiny bit in the past." She looks proud of herself and he gives her a hug proud of her as well.
"I don't understand" The Rose behind him says.
"Neither do I" the second Rose says.
"Wait you just said it," Rose replies.
"No i'm just repeating it." He puts his hand to his forehand and starts to rub it. He was getting a headache "I'm just remembering what I heard myself saying when I was standing where you are now and just repeating it." He looks at her surprised. "I'm just repeating this too and this and this."
"Uh, I still don't understand" Rose says.
"You still don't" The second Rose tells her.
"Okay," He interrupts. "When does this Rose step inside the box. We need to make out a time line."
"Ah," the second Rose says, "As soon as she slapped Jack."
"Okay" Rose readily agrees.
"Huh, no, why do I get slapped." Jack asks.
He looks at Jack. "Because we have to stick to the established chain of events one mistake and the entire timeline could collapse and we could end up with two Rose Tyler's forever and then what would we do."
Jack smiles and holds up a finger, turning to look at Rose. She gasps and slaps him across the face.
"Okay you into the police box now," He says coming over and pushing Rose towards it. "Remember to take Kiam."
She grabs Kiam's hand and heads over to the Police Box but she leans against instead and looks at herself. "What and then I become her?"
"Yes, Go"
She turns and looks at the future Rose.
"Do I really look like that." She asks her.
"Yeah you do." The Future Rose replies.
"I'd give you a driver's license."
"hmm I bet you would"
He groans "This is how it all ends. Rose flirting with herself, true love at last."
"Now Rose," he calls.
"What's the first line," She asks Future Rose.
"Okay kids, this is where it gets complicated."
"Gotcha," Rose and Kiam disappear into the box and the Future Rose and Kiam head over to Jack and him.
"So is that it are we okay now." She ask
"No, were still trapped"
The main door opens and this time Rose, Kiam and Jack come through. "What are you doing" He asks them.
"You told us to get into the police box," Future Jack replies.
He turns and looks behind him as the future Jack continues. "From your point of view your about to tell us to get in the police box, from our point of view you just told us to get into the police box. Which is why we got into the police box, which is why were here."
"Do I have to remember all of that." Jack asks.
"It just sort of happens," the Future Jack tells him.
"Hi," Rose waves to herself
"Hi," the Future Rose waves back.
"Hey stop that," He puts his hands on Rose and Jack's back and pushes them. "You three, in the police box now, Run."
"So what now," Rose says starting to come forward. He turns and holds up his hand. "You three, stay where you are."
"What are you doing," Jack asks.
"I'm setting up a controlled temporal implosion it's the only way to reset the Tardis. Unless I find exactly the right lever to control the implosion were all going to die."
"You don't which lever," Rose says.
"No, but i'm about to find out." He looks expectantly at the door.
His future self rushes in and between Jack and Rose. "The wibbly lever."
"The wibbly lever, thank you." he says pointing at himself.
He throws the lever and then runs into the police box. The Tardis separates it's self.
"Okay, we're back in normal flight. the Tardis is no longer inside itself," He puts his arms around Rose and Jack's necks. "and the whole time field is no longer about to implode and rip a hole in all causality but just in case." he looks Rose up and down. "You're going to put some trousers on."
She heads off and as she turns into the corridor he sees her beckoning him. He turns to Jack and smiles. "Watch Kiam," he says and takes off after her.
