 It is dark . The Doctor slips outside the back door of Rose 's flat . Rose emerges after him .
ROSE:「And where do you think you 're going ?」

ROSE:「Right . There 's a spaceship on the Thames and you 're just " wandering " .」
Doctor Who:「Nothing to do with me ! It 's not an invasion ! That was a genuine crash landing . Angle of descent , colour of smoke , everything ! It 's perfect !」

JOSEPH:「Well , it has all been a bit of a shock .」
ASQUITH:「This is the greatest crisis in modern history and you 've done nothing ! Your behaviour has been shameful , sir . You 're supposed to be in charge and we need positive leadership . The capital 's ground to a halt .」

JOSEPH ( sarcastically ):「Oh , I 'm SCARED . I mean , that 's hair raising . I mean , literally . Look !」

There are some disgusting and worrying noises from the cabinet room and Harriet leans back against the wall of the cupboard , horrified .
 INT . ALBION HOSPITAL , MORTUARY
 Dr Sato and the Doctor are standing over the pig 's body .
DR SATO:「I just assumed that 's what alien 's look like . But you 're saying it 's an ordinary pig ? From Earth ?」
Doctor Who:「More like a mermaid . Victorian showmen used to draw the crowds by taking the skull of a cat and gluing it to a fish and calling it a mermaid . Now , someone 's taken a pig , opened up it 's brain , stuck bits on ... then they strapped it in that ship and made it dive bomb . It must 've been terrified . They 've taken this animal and turned it into a joke .」


DR SATO:「So it 's a fake . A pretend . Like the mermaid . But the technology augmenting its brain ... it 's like nothing on Earth . It 's alien . Aliens are faking aliens . But why would they do that ... ? ( Turns to face the Doctor , only to find he has vanished ) . Doctor ?」
