Doctor Who s02e13 Episode Script

Doomsday

'My name is Rose Tyler.
And this is the story of Torchwood, 'the last story I'll ever tell.
' Here we are, then.
Dad, say hello to Rose.
Hasn't she grown? ! Welcome to Torch wood.
They're Cyber men.
All of the ghosts are Cyber men.
That's not Cyber men.
Oh, God! Exterminate! Exterminate! 'This is a story of how I died.
' Exterminate! Exterminate! Daleks! You're called Daleks.
I know your name.
Think about it - how can I know that? A human, who knows about the Daleks and the Time War? If you want to know how, then keep us alive.
That's all I'm asking.
Me and my friends.
Yeah, Daleks, Time War - me too.
Yeah, and me.
You will be necessary.
Report! What is the status of the Genesis Ark? Status - hibernation.
Commence awakening.
The Genesis Ark must be protected above all else.
But Daleks.
.
.
you said they were all dead.
Never mind that, what the hell's a Genesis Ark? What's down there? She was in that room with the Sphere.
What's happened to Rose? I don't know! I'll find her.
I brought you here and I'll get you both out, you AND your daughter.
Jackie, look at me.
Look at me! I promise you.
I give you my word.
You will talk to your Central World Authority and order global surrender.
Oh, do some research! We haven't got a Central World Authority.
You have now.
I will speak on all global wavelengths.
This broadcast is for humankind.
Cyber men now occupy every landmass on this planet.
But you need not fear.
Cyber men will remove fear.
Cyber men will remove sex and class and colour and creed.
You will become identical.
You will become like us.
I ordered surrender.
They're not taking instructions.
Don't you understand? ! You're on every street, you're in their homes, you've got their children! Of course they're going to fight! Which of you is least important? What's that supposed to mean? Which of you is least important? No, we don't work like that, none of us.
Designate the least important! This is my responsibility.
No, don't! I represent the Torch wood Institute.
Anything you need, you come through me.
Leave these two alone.
You will kneel.
What for? Kneel! The Daleks need information about current Earth history.
I can give you a certain amount of intelligence, but nothing that compromises homeland security.
Speech is not necessary.
We will extract brainwaves.
Don't.
.
.
I'll.
.
.
I'll tell you everything you need.
No, don't! Ah.
.
.
! Scans detect unknown technology active within Sphere Chamber.
Cyber men will investigate.
Units 10/6/5 and 10/6/6 will investigate Sphere Chamber.
We obey.
His mind spoke of a second species invading Earth.
Infected by the superstition of ghosts.
You didn't need to kill him ! Neither did we need him alive.
Dalek Thay, investigate outside.
I obey! Units, open visual link.
Visual contact established.
Establish visual contact.
Lower communications barrier.
Identify yourselves! You will identify first.
State your identity! You will identify first.
Identify! It's like Stephen Hawking meets the speaking clock.
Aggression is wasteful and illogical, you will modify.
Daleks do not take orders.
You have identified as Daleks.
Outline resembles the inferior species known as Cyber men.
Rose said about the Daleks.
.
.
she was terrified of them.
What have they done to her, Doctor? Is she dead? (Phone!) Long-range scans confirm presence.
.
.
.
.
of crude cybernetic constructs on worldwide scale.
She answered, she's alive.
But why haven't they killed her? Well, don't complain! They must need her for something.
We must protect the Genesis Ark.
The Genesis Ark? Our species are similar, though your design is inelegant.
Daleks have no concept of elegance.
This is obvious.
But consider, our technologies are compatible.
Cyber men plus Daleks - together, we could upgrade the universe.
You propose an alliance? This is correct.
Request denied.
Hostile elements will be deleted.
Exterminate! Open visual link.
Daleks, be warned.
You have declared war upon the Cyber men.
This is not war - this is pest control! We have five million Cyber men.
How many are you? Four.
You would destroy the Cyber men with four Daleks? We would destroy the Cyber men with one Dalek! You are superior in only one respect.
What is that? You are better at dying.
Raise communications barrier.
Wait! Lost her.
Rewind image by nine rels.
Identify grid Seven Gamma Flame.
This male registers as Enemy.
The female's heartbeat has increased.
Yeah, tell me about it( !) Identify him ! All right, then.
.
.
if you really want to know.
That's the Doctor.
Five million Cyber men, easy.
One Doctor? NOW you're scared.
Quarantine the Sphere Chamber.
Start emergency upgrading.
Begin with these personnel.
No, you can't do this! We surrendered! We surrendered! Keep this one.
His increased adrenaline suggests that he has vital Dalek information.
"Upgrading"? Stop them ! Doctor! You promised me! Leave that woman! You promised me! You gave me your word! Jackie, don't fight them.
I'll think of something.
Cyberthreat irrelevant.
Concentrate on the Genesis Ark.
Why are we being kept alive? They might need me.
.
.
What? What is it? What happens in there? What's "upgrading" mean? What do they do? I think.
.
.
they remove the brain.
Sorry.
I think they remove the brain and they put it in a suit of armour.
That's what these things are.
They're us.
Next.
This is YOUR fault! You and your Torch wood! You've killed us all! I did my duty.
.
.
for Queen and Country.
I did my duty.
I did my duty.
Oh, God! I did my duty.
You are proof.
Of what? That emotions destroy you.
Yeah, I am.
Mind you, I quite like hope.
Hope's a good emotion.
And here it comes.
Doctor.
Good to see you again.
Jake? The Cyber men came through from one world to another.
And so did we! No! Cyberleader One has been terminated.
Explain.
Download shared files.
I will be upgraded to Cyberleader.
Defend this room.
Chrissie, monitor communications.
Kill one Cyberleader, and they just download into another.
MOVE! You can't just.
.
.
just hop from one world to another! You can't! We just did - with these.
But that's impossible.
You can't have this sort of technology.
We've got our own version of Torch wood.
They developed it.
D'you wanna come and see? No! Parallel Earth, parallel Torch wood, except we found out what the Institute was doing, and the People's Republic took control.
I've got to get back - Rose is in danger, and her mother.
That'd be Jackie.
My wife in a parallel universe.
And as for you, Doctor - at least this time I know who you are.
Right, yes, fine, hooray, but I've got to get back - right now.
No, you're not in charge here.
This is OUR world, not yours.
And you're going to listen for once.
I could transport out, but it only carries one, and I'm not leaving you.
Follow me anywhere.
What did I do to you all those years ago? Guess I'm just stupid.
You're the bravest man I've ever met.
What about the Doctor? All right.
Bravest human.
Well, I can't think what the Daleks need with me, I'm nothing to them.
You could be.
.
.
Whatever's inside that Ark is waking up.
I've seen this happen before.
'First time I saw a Dalek, it was broken, 'it was dying.
'But I touched it.
The moment I did that, I brought it back to life.
' The Doctor said when you travel in time in the Tardis, you soak up all this.
.
.
background radiation.
It's harmless, it's just there.
But in the Time War, the Daleks evolved so they could use it as a power supply.
I love it when you talk technical.
Shut up.
But if the Daleks have something inside that thing, and it needs waking up.
.
.
They need you.
You've travelled in time.
Either one of us would do.
But why build something they can't open? The technology is stolen.
The Ark is not of Dalek design.
Then who built it? The Time Lords.
This is all that survives of their homeworld.
What's inside? The future! When you left this world, you warned us there'd be more Cyber men.
So we sealed them inside the factories.
Except people argued, said they were living, we should help them.
And the debate went on, but all that time, the Cyber men made plans, infiltrated this version of Torch wood, mapped themselves onto your world and then vanished.
When was this? Three years ago.
It's taken them three years to cross the Void, but we can pop to and fro in a second? Must be the sheer mass of five million Cyber men crossing all at once.
Yeah.
Mickey said you'd rattle off that stuff.
Where is Mickey boy? He went ahead first.
Any chance to go and find Miss Rose Tyler.
She's your daughter.
You do know that? Did Mickey explain? She's not mine.
She's the child of a dead man.
Look at it.
A world at peace.
We're calling this the Golden Age.
Who's the President now? Woman called Harriet Jones.
I'd keep an eye on her.
But it's a lie.
Temperatures have risen by two degrees in the past six months.
The icecaps are melting.
They say all of this is going to be flooded.
That's not just global warming, is it? No.
It's the breach.
I've been trying to tell you.
Travel between parallel worlds is impossible.
Then the Daleks break down the walls with the Sphere.
Daleks? Then the Cyber men travelled across, then you lot, those discs! Every time you jump from one reality to another, you rip a hole in the universe.
This planet is starting to boil! Keep going, and both worlds will fall into the Void.
But you can stop it? The famous Doctor.
You can seal the breach? Leaving five million Cyber men stranded on my Earth.
That's your problem.
I'm protecting this world and this world only.
Pete Tyler.
I knew you when you were dead.
Now here you are, fighting the fight.
.
.
.
.
alone.
There is a chance.
.
.
back on MY world.
.
.
Jackie Tyler might still be alive.
My wife died.
Her husband died.
Good match.
There's more important things at stake.
Doctor.
.
.
help us.
What? Close the breach? Stop the Cyber men? Defeat the Daleks? D'you believe I can do that? Yes.
Maybe that's all I need.
Off we go, then! First of all, I need to make a phone call.
You don't mind? You two, guard the door.
Oh, my God, help me! Jackie, you're alive! 'They tried to download me, but I ran away.
.
.
' Listen, tell me, where are you? I don't know! Staircase.
Yeah, which one? Is there any sort of sign, anything to identify it? 'Yes, there's a fire extinguisher.
' Yeah, that helps.
Wait a minute - it says, "N3".
North corner, staircase three.
Just keep low, we're trying our best.
Don't leave me! I've got to go, I'm sorry.
Jacqueline Andrea Suzette Tyler.
She's not my wife.
I was at the wedding.
You got her name wrong.
If I can open the bonding chamber on this, it could work on polycarbide.
What's polycarbide? The skin of a Dalek.
Sorry! No white flag - only had a sheet of A4.
Same difference.
Do you surrender? I surrender.
.
.
unto you.
.
.
a very good idea.
Final stage of awakening! Your handprint will open the Ark.
Well, tough, cos I'm not doing it.
Obey, or the male will die! I can't let 'em.
Rose.
.
.
don't! Place your hand upon the casket.
All right! You're gonna kill us anyway, so what the hell.
If you.
.
.
escaped the Time War, don't you want to know what happened? Place your hand.
.
.
.
.
What happened to the Emperor? The Emperor survived? Until he met ME.
Cos if these are gonna be my last words, then you're gonna listen! I met the Emperor.
And I took the Time Vortex and poured it into his head and turned him into dust.
D'you get that? The God of all Daleks.
.
.
and I destroyed him ! You will be EXTERMINATED! Oh, now, hold on, wait a minute.
.
.
Alert! Alert! You are the Doctor! Sensors report he is unarmed.
That's me, always.
Then you are powerless.
Not me.
Never! .
.
How are you? Oh! Same old, you know.
Good.
And Micketty-Mick-Mickey! Nice to see you.
And you, boss.
Social interaction will cease.
How did you survive the Time War? By fighting.
.
.
on the front line.
I was there at the Fall of Arcadia.
Some day, I might even come to terms with that.
But you lot.
.
.
ran away! We had to survive.
The last four Daleks in existence.
So what's so special about you? Doctor, they've got names.
I mean, Daleks don't have names, do they? But one of them said they.
.
.
I am Dalek Thay.
Dalek Sec.
Dalek Jast.
Dalek Caan.
So THAT'S it! At last! The Cult of Skaro.
I thought you were just a legend.
Who are they? A secret order, above and beyond the Emperor himself.
Their job was to imagine.
Think as the enemy thinks.
Even dare to have names, all to find new ways of killing.
But that thing, they said it was yours - I mean, Time Lords, they built it.
What does it do? I don't know.
Never seen it before.
But it's.
.
.
Time Lord.
Both sides had secrets.
.
.
What is it? What have you done? Time Lord science will restore Dalek supremacy.
What does that mean? What sort of Time Lord science? What d'you mean? They said one touch from a time traveller will wake it up.
Technology using the one thing a Dalek can't do - touch.
Sealed inside your casing, not feeling anything.
.
.
ever.
From birth to death, locked inside a cold, metal cage, completely alone.
That explains your voice.
No wonder you scream.
The Doctor will open the Ark! Ooh.
.
.
! The Doctor will not! You have no way of resisting! Well, you got me there, although.
.
.
there is always this.
A sonic probe? That's "screwdriver".
It is harmless.
Oh, yes.
Harmless is just the word.
That's why I like it! Doesn't kill, wound, maim, but I'll tell you what it DOES do.
It is very good at opening doors.
Delete.
Delete.
Delete.
Alert! Casing impaired! Casing impaired! Rose, get out! Insufficient fire power! Insufficient fire power! Daleks will be deleted.
Delete.
Delete.
Mickey! Come on! Adapt to weaponry! Fire power restored! Come on! Cyber men primary target! Jake, protect the stairwell! .
.
The rest of you, come on! Cyber men have been exterminated.
Daleks are supreme.
The Genesis Ark is primed.
The Ark needs area of 30 square miles.
Move! Genesis Ark mobile.
I just fell.
I didn't mean in.
Without us, they'd have opened it by force, and to do that, they'd have blown up the sun, so you've done us a favour.
Now run! Oh! You will be upgraded.
No, but you can't, please! Pete? ! Hello, Jacks.
I said there were ghosts, but that's not fair.
Why him? I'm not a ghost.
But you're dead.
You died 20 years ago, Pete.
It's Pete from a different universe.
There are parallel worlds, Jackie.
Every single decision we make creates a parallel existence, a different dimension where.
.
.
Oh, you can shut up.
Oh.
.
.
you look old.
You don't.
How can you be standing there? Just got lucky.
Lived my life.
But you were left on your own.
You didn't marry again, or.
.
.
? There was never anyone else.
Look at me.
I never left that flat.
Did nothing with myself.
You brought HER up.
Rose Tyler.
That's not bad.
Yeah.
In my world.
.
.
it worked.
All those daft little plans of mine, it worked.
Made me rich.
I don't care about that.
How rich? Very.
I don't care about that.
How very? Thing is, though, Jacks.
.
.
you're not my wife.
I'm sorry, but you're not.
I mean, we both.
.
.
You know, it's just sort of.
.
.
Oh, come here.
Exterminate! Delete! Exterminate! Delete! Delete! Exterminate! Delete! Exterminate! Exterminate! Delete! Emergency.
All units will converge on the Torch wood Tower.
Repeat, all Cyber men to Torch wood.
This way! Come on, please.
Override roof mechanism ! Elevate! What are they doing? Why do they need to get outside? Time Lord science? WHAT Time Lord science? What is it? ! We've got to see what it's doing, we've got to go back up.
Come on! All of you, top floor.
But that's 45 floors up! Believe me - I've done 'em all.
We could always take the lift.
The Genesis Ark will open! Time Lord science.
.
.
it's bigger on the inside.
The Time Lords put those Daleks in there? What for? It's a prison ship! How many Daleks? Millions.
Exterminate all lifeforms below! Exterminate! Ah! You've had it - this world's going to crash and burn.
There's nothing we can do.
We're going home.
.
.
Jacks, take this.
You're coming with us.
But they're destroying the city! I'd forgotten you can argue.
It's not just London - it's the whole world.
But there's another world, just waiting for you, Jacks, and it's safe, as long as the Doctor closes the breach.
Doctor? Oh, I'm ready! Equipment right here.
Thank you, Torch wood! Slam it down and close off both universes.
We can't just leave.
What about the Daleks? And the Cyber men? They're part of the problem, and that.
.
.
makes them part of the solution.
Oh, yes! Well? Isn't anybody going to ask? ! What is it with the glasses? What is it with the glasses? I can see! That's what! Cos we've got two separate worlds, but in between the two separate worlds, we've got the Void.
That's where the Daleks were hiding, and the Cyber men travelled through the Void to get here, and you lot, one world to another, via the Void.
Ooh, I like that! Via the Void! Look.
I've been through it, see? 'Reboot in three minutes.
' What is it? Voidstuff! Like.
.
.
background radiation! That's it! Look at the others.
And the only one who hasn't been through the Void - your mother.
First time she's looked normal in her life.
Oi! But the Daleks lived inside the Void, they're bristling with it, Cyber men, all of them, I just.
.
.
open the Void and reverse! The Voidstuff gets sucked back inside! Pulling them all in! Pulling them all in! Sorry, what's the Void? The dead space.
Some people call it Hell.
So you're sending the Daleks and Cyber men to Hell? Man, I told you he was good! But it's like you said, we've all got Voidstuff - me too - cos we went to that parallel world.
We're all contaminated, we'll get pulled in.
That's why you've got to go.
'Reboot in two minutes.
' Back to Pete's world.
Hey, we should call it that - "Pete's World".
I'm opening the Void, but only on this side.
You'll be safe on that side.
And then you close it.
.
for good? The breach itself is soaked in Voidstuff - in the end, it'll close itself.
And that's it.
Kaput.
But you stay on this side? But you'll get pulled in! That's why.
.
.
I got these.
I'll just have to hold on tight.
Been doing it all my life.
I'm supposed to go? Yeah.
To another world, and then it gets sealed off? Yeah.
For ever? That's not gonna happen.
We haven't got time to argue.
The plan works, we're going.
All of us.
I'm not leaving him ! I'm not going without her! Oh, my God, we're going! I've had 20 years without you, so button it! I'm not leaving her.
You've got to! Well, that's tough! Mum.
'Reboot in one minute.
' I've had a life with you for 19 years.
But then I met the Doctor.
And all the things I've seen him do for me, for you, for all of us, for the whole.
.
.
stupid planet and every planet out there.
.
.
he does it alone, Mum.
But not any more.
Cos now he's got me.
What are you.
.
.
? Oh no, you don't.
He's not doing that to me again! I think this is the "on" switch.
But I've got to go back! The Doctor said, every time we use one of these, it damages the whole world, now that's it! She's your daughter! She's YOUR daughter, not mine.
That's an order! Mickey, tell him ! Tell him, Mickey! Mickey! Once the breach collapses, that's it - you'll never be able to see her again, your own mother.
I made my choice a long time ago and I'm never going to leave you.
So what can I do to help? 'Systems rebooted.
'Open access.
' Those coordinates over there, set them all at six.
And hurry up! Get away from me! We've got Cyber men on the way up.
How many floors down? Just one.
We will retreat through the breach.
Regain the homeworld.
You not pass.
What is the meaning of this? You will not pass.
I did my duty for Queen and Country.
I did my duty for Queen and Country.
I did my duty for Queen and Country.
'Leavers operational.
' That's more like it.
Bit of a smile! The old team.
Hope and glory! Mutt and Jeff! Shiver and Shake! Which one's Shiver? Oh, I'm Shake! Press the red button.
Breach active! It is the Doctor! Exterminate him ! Exterminate! When it starts, hold on tight.
Shouldn't be too bad, but the Daleks and the Cyber men are steeped in Voidstuff.
Ready? So are they.
Let's do it! 'Online.
' The breach is open! Into the Void! Ha! Emergency temporal shift! 'Offline.
' Hold on! I've got to get it upright! 'Online and locked.
' Rose! Hold on! Ooh.
.
.
! Hold on! Ah! Ah! Rose! Ah.
.
.
! Ah.
.
.
! 'Systems closed.
' Take me back! Take me back! Take me back! It's stopped working.
He did it.
He closed the breach.
No! (Rose.
.
.
) 'Last night I had a dream.
' (Rose.
.
.
) 'I heard a voice, 'and it was calling my name.
' (Rose.
.
.
) (Rose.
.
.
) (Rose.
.
.
) I had a dream, um.
.
.
'I told Mum and Dad and Mickey.
'Anyone else would think I was mad, but not those three.
'They believed it, 'because they've met the Doctor.
'So they listened to the dream.
' .
.
It was calling me.
.
.
'And that night, we packed up.
' 'Got into Dad's old Jeep and off we went.
' 'Just like the dream said.
'We followed the voice.
'Crossed the water, 'kept on driving, hundreds and hundreds of miles.
'Because he's calling.
' (Rose.
.
.
) 'Here I am at last.
'And this is the story of how I died.
' Where are you? Inside the Tardis.
There's one tiny little gap in the universe left, just about to close.
And it takes a lot of power to send this projection - I'm in orbit around a supernova.
I'm burning up a sun, just to say goodbye.
You look like a ghost.
Hold on.
Can I t.
.
.
? I'm still just an image.
No touch.
Can't you come through properly? The whole thing would fracture.
Two universes would collapse.
So? Where are we? Where did the gap come out? We're in Norway.
Norway! Right.
About 50 miles out of Bergen.
It's called Darlig Ulv Stranden.
- Dalek? - Darlig.
It's Norwegian for bad.
This translates as Bad Wolf Bay.
How long have we got? About two minutes.
I can't think of what to say! You've still got Mr Mickey, then.
There's five of us now - Mum, Dad, Mickey and the baby.
You're not.
.
.
? No! It's Mum.
She's three months gone.
More Tylers on the way.
And what about you, what are you.
.
.
? Yeah, I'm back working in the shop.
Oh, good for you.
Shut up! Nah, I'm not.
The Torchwood on this planet's still open for business.
I think I know a thing or two about aliens.
Rose Tyler.
Defender of the Earth.
You're dead, officially, back home.
So many people died that day, and you've gone missing.
You're on a list of the dead.
Here you are, living a life, day after day.
The one adventure I can never have.
Am I ever going to see you again? You can't.
What are you going to do? I've got the Tardis.
Same old life.
Last of the Time Lords.
On your own.
I.
.
.
I love you.
Quite right too.
And I suppose.
.
.
.
.
if it's my last chance to say it.
.
.
Rose Tyler.
.
.
What? ! Oh! What? ! Who are you? But.
.
.
? ! Where am I? - What? ! - What the hell is this place? ! What? !
