The Doctor:
Those keys.

CRAIG:
What?

The Doctor:
You're sort of fondling them.

CRAIG:
I'm holding them.

The Doctor:
Right.

CRAIG:
Anyway. These, these are your keys.

The Doctor:
I can stay?

CRAIG:
Yeah, you're weird and you can cook. It's good enough for me. Right. Outdoor, front door, your door.

The Doctor:
My door. My place. My gaff. Ha ha! Yes. Me with a key.

CRAIG:
And listen, Mark and I, we had an arrangement where if you ever need me out of your hair, just give me a shout, okay?

The Doctor:
Why would I want that?

CRAIG:
In case you want to bring someone round. A girlfriend or, a boyfriend?

The Doctor:
Oh, I will. I'll shout if that happens. Yes. Something like, I was not expecting this! By the way, that. The rot. I've got the strangest feeling we shouldn't touch it.

[Doctor's Room]

(The Doctor lies on the bed and has a earpod. It is night.)

The Doctor:
Earth to Pond, Earth to Pond.

[TARDIS]

The Doctor[OC]:
Come in Pond.

Amy:
Doctor!

(Massive feedback through the earpiece.)

Amy:
Sorry.

The Doctor:
Could you not wreck my new earpiece, Pond?

[Craig's Room]

(Craig is on his phone, talking to Sophie. The scene changes from Sophie's to Craig's room multiple times. They're both lying in bed.)

CRAIG:
No, I mean, he seems a laugh. He's a bit weird. Good weird, you know?

SOPHIE [OC]:
And he just happens to have three grand on him in a paper bag?

CRAIG:
Yeah.

Sophie:
Wait. The Doctor. Craig, what if he's a dealer?

CRAIG:
chuckles

[Aickman Road]

(A lady is walking down the sidewalk, tired from a night at the club.)

MAN [OC]:
Hello. Stop, please. Can you hear me? I need your help.

[The Doctor's Room]

The Doctor:
How's the TARDIS coping?

[TARDIS]

(Amy holds up the intercom)

Amy:
See for yourself

(The TARDIS makes distorted noises.)

[Doctor's room]

The Doctor:
Ooo, nasty. She's locked in a materialisation loop, trying to land again-

[TARDIS]

The Doctor[OC]:
But she can't.

Amy:
Hmm. And whatever's stopping her is upstairs in that flat. So, go upstairs and sort it.

[Aickman Road]

Man[OC]:
Please my little girl's hurt

(The woman goes inside.)

[Doctor's Room]

The Doctor:
I don't know what it is yet. Anything that can stop the Tardis from landing is big. Scary big.

[Tardis]

AMY:
Wait. Are you scared?

[Stairway]

(A different man is standing atop the doorway.)

Man[OC]:
'm so sorry, but will you help me? Please?

Woman:
Help you?

(She goes up the stairs.)

[Craig's room]

Sophie [OC]:
A bow tie? Are you serious?

The Doctor [OC]:
Be fair. Could be even

Craig:
Hang on a sec.

Sophie:
Craig?

(Craig gets up and walks across the room to the wall.)

Sophie [OC]:
Craig?

DOCTOR [OC]:
Orange juice. Neocene Arbuckle. Rare tarantula on the table. Oh.
