The group had made their way to the admin office, with the Doctor using his sonic screwdriver on a computer to unlock the files. Raelle perched beside him on the desk, observing, as she flicked through files she could see on the desk with Martha peering outside the door, watching intently on what the Judoon were doing.
"They've reached third floor." She informed, closing the door quietly behind her, observing the Doctor. "What's that thing?" She pointed to the device in the Doctor's hand.
"Sonic screwdriver." He plainly stated.
Martha scoffed, crossing her arms as she stood across from the Doctor, the other side of the desk. "Well, if you're not going to answer me properly."
Raelle looked up to her. "No, really, it is. It's a screwdriver, and it's sonic." She told her truthfully, getting the Doctor to hold it up for her to inspect. "Look."
Martha peered at the screwdriver, still looking somewhat unconvinced. "What else have you got, a laser spanner?" She stated sarcastically.
The Doctor frowned in thought. "I did, but it was stolen by Emily Pankhurst, cheeky woman." He mused, tapping Raelle on the head with his screwdriver as he turned his attention back to the computer. "Oh, this computer!" The computer appeared to be locked down, unable to be accessed. "The Judoon must have locked it down. Judoon platoon upon the moon. Because I was just travelling past. I swear, I was just wandering. I wasn't looking for trouble, honestly, I wasn't, but I noticed these plasma coils around the hospital, and that lightning, that's a plasma coil. Been building up for two days now, so I checked in. I thought something was going on inside. It turns out the plasma coils were the Judoon up above." He explained, as Raelle narrowed her eyes at him.
Raelle scoffed, giving the Doctor a small glare. "So that's why we came here. Plasma coils. You could've told me." She snapped at him.
The Doctor flashed her an innocent smile. "Sorry." He apologised, leaning in to give her a kiss. Raelle flicked his nose in protest, causing him to send her a scowl.
"But what were they looking for?" Martha interrupted the pair, watching their interaction, a faint smirk apparent on her face.
"Something that looks human, but isn't." The Doctor told Martha. Raelle raised her eyebrows in a mocking fashion as she looked at the Doctor. Apparently he wasn't the only one.
"Like you, apparently." Martha retorted.
"Like me. But not me."
"Haven't they got a photo?" Martha inquired.
"Well, could be a shape-shifter." Raelle pondered, knowing the wide range of extraterrestrial creatures to exists. Shape-shifter seemed relatively normal.
The Doctor nodded in agreement. "Shape-changer." He corrected her.
"Tomato Tomato." Raelle waved her hand, dismissing him. "It's all the same."
"Whatever it is, can't you just leave the Judoon to find it?" Martha stated, seeming as if it was relatively straightforward. If only it was Raelle wished.
"If they declare the hospital guilty of harbouring a fugitive, they'll sentence it to execution." The Doctor stated gravely. Both Raelle and Martha looked at the Doctor, eyes wide at the implications.
"All of us?" Raelle asked breathlessly.
"Oh yes." The Doctor responded, his actions becoming rapid as he thought. "If I can find this thing first. Oh!" He exclaimed, causing Martha to jump in fright as he paced around the room. "You see, they're thick! Judoon are thick! They are completely thick! They wiped the records. Oh, that's clever." He remarked, his thoughts coming to quick to process as he thought out loud.
