The Doctor and the Protector stare at the ginger wearing a wedding dress in their TARDIS that is currently in space. "You can't do that – I wasn't." the Doctor begins, looking around for some explanation. "... we're in flight! That is... that is physically impossible! How did...?" he asks.

"Tell me where I am. I demand you tell me right now, where am I?" the ginger asks.

"Inside the TARDIS." the Protector tells her.

"The what?" the ginger asks.

"The TARDIS." the Protector repeats.

"The what?" the ginger asks again.

"The TARDIS!" the Doctor exclaims before we turn to the controls.

"The what?"

"It's called the TARDIS." the Protector tells her.

"That's not even a proper word. You're just saying things." the ginger says angrily.

"How did you get in here?" the Doctor asks.

"Well, obviously, when you kidnapped me. Who was it? Who's paying you? Is it Nerys? Oh, my God, she's finally got me back. This has got Nerys written all over it." the ginger says raging with anger. The Protector and the Doctor watch her rant, the Protector looking her up and down with utter confusion. "Who the hell is Nerys?" the Protector asks her.

"Your best friend." the ginger states.

"Hold on, wait a minute... why are you dressed like that for?" the Doctor asks her, making the Protector look at him in confusion. "Seriously, Doctor?" the Protector asks him. "Do you not think at all?"

"I'm going ten pin bowling." the ginger says, sarcastically before snapping at him. "What do you think, dumbo? I was halfway up the aisle! I've been waiting all my life for this. I was just seconds away and then you, I don't know, you drugged me or something!"

"I haven't done anything!" the Doctor tells her.

"We're having the police on you! Me and my husband, as soon as he is my husband, we're gonna sue the living backside off ya!" the ginger says, making the Doctor and Protector not reply, the both of them operating the controls. After a quiet moment, the Protector look up to see the ginger running over to the doors so she runs after her. "No, wait a minute! Wait a minute! Don't...!" the Protector begins but it's too late because the ginger has already thrown the doors open and is now looking upon the supernova that she and the Doctor have been orbiting for about an hour now. The ginger's mouth falls open slightly as the Protector stands next to her. "You're in space. Outer Space. This is our... space-ship. It's called the TARDIS." the Protector tells the ginger.

"How am I breathing?" the ginger asks.

"The TARDIS is protecting us." she tells her.

"Who are you?"
