(Pause, making sure Jackie's not listening). Even in a parallel universe, she still loves a party. Happy birthday. He walks to the opposite end of the room where the homeless people who were abducted earlier are standing in a row, completely still as though hypnotised. John Lumic.

Summary: A problem causes the Doctor, Rose, and Mickey to reach a parallel universe , in which most of the people of London wear EarPods that feed information directly into the wearer's brain and Rose's father Pete is still alive. The EarPods are designed by John Lumic , who is trying to give them an "upgrade" which will ultimately turn the humans into Cybermen . Though he has not received permission to do this, he has been abducting and converting numerous homeless people. Mickey is mistaken for his parallel universe self Ricky and is taken by Jake Simmonds , a member of a gang called the "Preachers" who are aware of the dangers of the EarPods. Cybermen begin attacking at the parallel universe Jackie's birthday party, at which the Doctor and Rose are posing as waiters. They, along with Pete, escape and run into Mickey and the Preachers, but the Cybermen close in on them.
