INT. DEMONS RUN - WAR ROOM
The DOCTOR strides into the room. He’s flanked by three robots.
DOCTOR Hello, everyone. I’m looking for a soldier named Lorna Bucket.
LORNA (stands up) That’s me.
DOCTOR (whispering) I’m sorry about this.
He taps her on the head with a device. She collapses.
DOCTOR (CONT'D) Right, let’s get started.
The Doctor points the device at a screen, which shows an image of Amy.
DOCTOR (CONT'D) Now, then. Amy Pond. The girl who waited. You’ve waited long enough.
He presses a button on the device.
DOCTOR (CONT'D) Merry Christmas, Amy!
The screen changes to show Amy, Rory, and their baby.
AMY (overwhelmed) Doctor!
DOCTOR You’re welcome. Now, about that army...
AMY (stunned) Is that really you?
DOCTOR (with a smile) It’s me. Now, let’s get to work.
RORY (to the Doctor) Thank you.
DOCTOR Don’t mention it.
INT. DEMONS RUN - CORRIDOR
The Doctor strides down the corridor, flanked by the robots.
DOCTOR (CONT'D) Right, let’s find Melody Pond.
He turns a corner and sees a group of soldiers.
DOCTOR (CONT'D) Ah, excuse me. Sorry to interrupt. I’m looking for a little girl, about this tall, dark hair, answers to the name of Melody Pond?
COMMANDER STRAX (with suspicion) Who are you?
DOCTOR I’m the Doctor. I’m here to save Melody Pond.
The soldiers aim their weapons at the Doctor.
DOCTOR (CONT'D) Okay, okay, okay. Easy now. Weapons down. Nobody needs to get hurt. Especially not me. I’ve already regenerated this week.
COMMANDER STRAX (raises his weapon) No one gets past us.
DOCTOR I’m not looking for a fight. I’m here to save Melody Pond.
The soldiers lower their weapons.
COMMANDER STRAX Very well. Follow me.
INT. DEMONS RUN - BASEMENT
The Doctor walks through the door. He sees Melody Pond, who is in a crib.
DOCTOR (to Melody) Hello, Melody. I’m the Doctor.
He picks her up.
DOCTOR (CONT'D) And I’m here to take you home.
MELODY (smiling) Okay.
INT. DEMONS RUN - WAR ROOM
The Doctor walks in, holding Melody.
DOCTOR (to Amy and Rory) Meet Melody Pond.
RORY (tearfully) That’s our baby.
DOCTOR (smiling) And she’s fine. Just fine.
AMY (hugging Melody) Thank you, Doctor. Thank you so much.
DOCTOR It was nothing.
RORY (hugging the Doctor) You’re a good man.
DOCTOR (smiling) No, Rory. I’m not a good man. I’m the Doctor.
The Doctor walks out of the room, flanked by the robots.
