(prepares to dematerialize)
AMY: (answers phone on the console) Hello? AMY: OK, your box is a spaceship. AMY: You could have killed a Star Whale. DOCTOR: ..migrating to the stars. DOCTOR: Look who it is. Doesn't take them long. Except it's not a torture chamber, is it? He realizes where they are. Hold tight. I hope I keep the strength to make the right decision. If just 1% of the population of this ship do likewise, the programme will be discontinued, with consequences for you all. It came because it couldn't stand to watch your children cry. No way! Not ever. REFUSE PILE
The DOCTOR and AMY fall out of the chute with a scream. She remembers the children playing when they arrived. So? That's... The last of the Star Whales. The ship will still fly, but the whale won't feel it. They wanted their own ship. Try, go on. You will continue to enjoy the safety and amenities of Starship UK, unburdened by the knowledge of what has been done to save you.

A: a Star Whale; Q: Who is the Starship UK guided by? A: pain; Q: What does the Star Whale not feel after being rendered brain-dead? Summary: The Doctor takes Amy to the distant future, where they explore the Starship UK : a spaceship holding the population of the United Kingdom (with the exception of Scotland) after they fled Earth due to dangerous solar flares. They discover that the ship is guided by a Star Whale , who is being tortured out of the fear that when left to make its own decisions it will abandon them. Believing that the future cannot go on this way, the Doctor prepares to render the Star Whale brain-dead so it will continue to operate the ship but not feel pain. Amy discovers that it is willing to serve the ship, since it could not stand the children crying because of the solar flares.
