TEXT: Recap of 308 "Human Nature". OPENING CREDITS JENNY: Make you decision, Mr Smith. Latimer reaches into his jacket pocket and slowly pulls out the watch. BAINES: Perhaps if that human heart breaks, the Time Lord will emerge. Latimer opens the watch. WATCH (hushed): Time Lord... BAINES: It's him! Using the distraction, Martha turns the tables on Jenny, holding a gun to her. MARTHA: One more move and I shoot. BAINES: Oh, the maid is full of fire! MARTHA: And you can shut up! Fires the gun into the ceiling. CLARK: Careful, Son of Mine. This is all for you so that you can live forever. BAINES: Shoot you down! MARTHA: Try it. We'll die together. BAINES: Would you really pull the trigger? Looks too scared. MARTHA: Scared and holding a gun. It's a good combination. You wanna risk it? Baines looks at the the Doctor, who is completely out of his depth, before lowering the gun. Joan goes to stand beside the Doctor. MARTHA: Doctor, get everyone out. There's a door at the side. It's over there. Go on! The Doctor stands indecisive. MARTHA: Do it, Mr Smith. I mean you! JOAN: Do what she said. Everybody out now. (Begins to usher everyone out). Don't argue, Mr Jackson. They're mad. That's all we need to know. Susan, Miss Cooper, outside, all of you! The villagers exit the hall through the front door, screaming. THE DOCTOR (to Latimer): Move yourself, boy. Back to the school, quickly. MARTHA: And you. Go on. Just shift. THE DOCTOR: What about you? MARTHA: Mr Smith, I think you should escort your lady friend to safety, don't you? The Doctor looks to the door, to Martha, back to the door then Martha again before running out. The Doctor arrives outside and begins directing those outside. THE DOCTOR: Mr Hicks, go
SUMMARY:
Latimer, a telepathic student who can hear the voices in the fob watch, distracts the Family by briefly opening the fob watch, which he is keeping hidden from the Family, allowing Smith, Martha and Redfern to escape the dance hall. They flee to an abandoned house after the Family attack the school, and are followed there by Latimer. The Family bombard the village with their spaceship to draw the Doctor out. Smith opens the fob watch, becoming the Doctor again. The Doctor overloads the Family's spaceship while misdirecting them. He gives them the eternal life they wished, while imprisoning the Father in unbreakable chains, the Mother in the event horizon of a collapsing galaxy, and the Daughter in every mirror. He suspends the Son in time, and dresses him up as a scarecrow. Redfern turns down the Doctor's invitation to go travelling with him.
