LONDON, NIGHT. The DOCTOR begins to pull himself into the TARDIS. He turns at the sound of a bell and sees that he is about to hit "Big Ben". He uses the screwdriver on the controls and slips out as the TARDIS speeds up, narrowly missing the top of the tower. INT TARDIS He pulls himself inside, closes the doors and falls against them with a sigh. It lurches and spins out of control.

SUMMARY:
The failing TARDIS crash-lands in England outside the home of seven-year-old Amelia Pond ( Caitlin Blackwood ), who invites the newly- regenerated Eleventh Doctor ( Matt Smith ) inside to investigate a crack in her bedroom wall. Since he must use the TARDIS to regulate its engines, he promises to return in five minutes. The TARDIS takes him twelve years into the future, where he joins the adult Amy Pond ( Karen Gillan ) and her boyfriend Rory Williams ( Arthur Darvill ) in capturing the shape-shifting alien known as Prisoner Zero (who has escaped from the crack in Amy's wall). Failure to capture the alien will lead to the destruction of Earth by the galactic police force known as the Atraxi . After the Earth is saved, the Doctor tests the newly-remodelled TARDIS and accidentally returns for Amy two years later-the night before her marriage to Rory-when she joins him for his promised travels through space and time.
