(The Doctor and Bill are sitting down on a wonky bench, they look around themselves to find the two on a farm with the TARDIS only a walk or two behind them)
Bill: So, remind me on why we are here?
The Doctor: We are here because the TARDIS takes us where we need to go. So, there must be some sort of danger lurking around here.
Olivia: (the scene switches over to her, she's just appears to be an ordinary human but with huge amounts of make up on, in a poncho covering her clothes, her hair is straight and has its back middle three strands tied near the middle with a bobble) That's right, there isn't something happening yet, but as soon as I get information on the whereabouts of your TARDIS there will! (It turns out that she's only talking to herself as the Doctor was only on screen) I just don't know where to find it and he will surely not give away anything about it.
Polka: (Polka just appears as a robotic voice echoing from the walls of the room) That is true, but maybe his assistant will be able to help you.
Olivia: Elaborate!
Polka: She has not been running with him much.
Olivia: So?
Polka: So... Why don't we kidnap her so that she can tell us?
Olivia: But she might not.
Polka: Well, if that's the case, we will have to use the experiment. Now, go and bring her here!
The Doctor: (soon Bill is walking on a path, the Doctor is nearby on a hill where he's looking busy) There's got to be something going on here, I can feel it.
Bill: Whatever it is, it can't be that big of a deal because if it was we would've heard about it by now! (A quad bike rides into a muddy puddle causing Bill to be covered with its muck) What was that for?
Olivia: (gets out the quad bike) I'm so so sorry, I didn't see you there. Come on, I'll take you to my place so you can use my shower to dry yourself off.
Bill: Thank you but no, I'd rather go home and do it.
Olivia: I understand, but are you really willing to walk all that long path to your house, I mean wouldn't it be easier if I was to give you a lift to my place?
Bill: I guess you're right (she enters the passenger seat of the quad bike as Olivia does the same for the driver seat)
Olivia: We won't be long.
The Doctor: Great, just promise me that you'll bring her back as soon as her shower is over.
Olivia: (drives off with Bill in the quad bike) Don't worry, she'll come back alright!
Polka: (Bill and Olivia enter) Welcome, newcomer!
Bill: You too, so where's the shower?
Olivia: Don't worry about that now. Now tell us, where can we find the TARDIS?
Bill: Sorry but the Doctor warned me not to give away the surroundings it.
Polka: You will tell!
Bill: No way, I just want a shower.
Olivia: Oh, that's OK, our current shower user is almost done in there. In fact, he is finished! (She presses a button nearby causing the shower door to swing open, a man comes out only in his black underwear, his eyes are completely white whilst his mouth is cracked and full of dark water, in which he is dripping wet)
Bill: (Bill hadn't even noticed him yet as she had just placed herself into another shower, she's about to turn it on when she realises there's no button to turn it on) Excuse me, I'm wanting to have a (her voice grows weak) shower here. What's wrong with that guy?
Olivia: Oh, he's just been infected by the Flood, any person that gets any sign of water from my shower water becomes like him and will be my evil obedient slave and I guess you're next!
Bill: Wait no! (She attempts to open the door but it's locked) Let me out!
Olivia: (laughs as she walks over to the shower in which Bill is trapped inside) Can you not remember? All the buttons that work the shower are outside here (she gestures the buttons) this one is to close the door, this is to turn off the shower, this one right over here is to turn on the shower and the last one is to open the door, I'll allow you to choose.
Bill: OK then. That one please! (She urgently points to the last button, the one in which Olivia said was the one to open the door)
Olivia: Are you sure?
Bill: Yes, I just want to get out of here as soon as possible!
Olivia: Very well then. (She presses the button and looks at the shower)
Bill: Hey, the door still appears to be closed!
Olivia: Don't worry, it'll open soon enough.
Bill: (Meanwhile in the shower Bill is still attempting to open the door, she looks up to the shower nozzle and sees tiny droplets of water being formed) She tricked me. That's it, I'm going to kick open the glass to break an exit instead before I turn evil! (But before she can make a move it's too late, water has began hitting her body causing Bill to jerk)
Olivia: (let's out an evil laugh as she continues to watch Bill transform, she uses the buttons to let her out and turn the shower off) You are now my evil and obedient slave and you will only follow the orders given to you by the the Flood!
Bill: Yes miss. (She appears to be in her yellow bikini, her hair is straight due to being wet, and, just like the man, her eyes are completely white, her mouth is cracked and is full of water, she's also dripping wet)
Olivia: Very good, now no matter where you go, Polka will be a silent message in your head, she will control each and every one of your actions. Now, I presume you have information on the TARDIS, right?
Bill: Yes!
Olivia: Now, I want you to find it and destroy it.
Bill: Sure, I won't let you down! (The Flood infected Bill exits the house and heads towards the TARDIS, leaving nothing but a trail of water dripped from her skin behind)
Trivia Time!
• The Doctor tells Bill what the TARDIS told him in The Doctor's Wife, when he was in his previous regeneration
• The way Olivia spies on the Doctor and Bill in the beginning is similar to the way the Empress of the Racnoss spied on the Tenth Doctor and Donna in The Runaway Bride, the only difference is back then they could hear her, but now with Olivia they can't
• The Flood make their return since The Waters of Mars, this also marks the second time one of them talks, it was Maggie in the previous episode, for this one though it's Bill
• This is the second time in which a character is only in underwear (and bra for girls) the last two times we saw this was with Rory in The Power of Three and Peri in Planet of Fire, this time it's the man and Bill, Rory and Peri could just put more clothes on at anytime, but since Bill is infected by the Flood, she's a villain and the Flood won't allow her to take on more clothes as it is in control of everything she does
