"Front door," Alex explains, going to answer the door. The landlord Rory met from earlier enters.
"Evening,"
"Oh, hi," The trio in George's bedroom can just about see what's happening, George is clearly scared of the man and the rent situation obviously isn't good. Willow lays down on George's bed, joining him in the awkward position. She gets out her screwdriver to distract him.
"Is that a torch?"
"Screwdriver," Willow explains "A sonic one that does other stuff,"
"Please may I see the other stuff?"
"Of course, you can, then you can tell us more about the monsters. Yeah?"
George looks unsure but Willow smiles again and George nods "...yeah," Willow presses her sonic and the toys with batteries activate. George sits up and laughs, Willow smiles and also sits up "Cool right?"
George nods and The Doctor watches silently. He couldn't help but let his mind wander back to Demon's run and Alexandra. Of course, Willow was good with kids, they had one together. They'd never spoken about it, about how their daughter was off being raised by the same monsters who forced Willow into regeneration - twice - and wiped her memory.
He knew Alexandra was fine, she was an adult who could clearly handle herself. But...he didn't want to miss her growing up. He wanted to watch Willow with their own child, he wanted Amy and Rory to meet their grandchild - properly. He wanted to raise her properly and he wanted a family. He had to find Alexandra, and speak to Willow. He'd let her think he would let Amy and Rory die, when in reality he needed Melody to fly the TARDIS, he knew she'd rescue them.
"Anyway, let's open this cupboard, yeah?" Willow prompts, looking up at The Doctor who'd zoned out as her and George spoke
"Exactly!" The Doctor turns, getting out his own sonic and stating to scan the wardrobe "There's nothing to be -" he reads off his sonic and his eyes widen, muttering under his breath so George couldn't hear "Off the scale. Off the scale. Off the scale... How?"
Alex re-joins them after his landlord left "Right. Sorry about that. So, have we got this thing open yet?" he goes towards the wardrobe and The Doctor stops him urgently.
"No! No, no, no, no, no. You don't want to do that!"
"Why?"
"Because George's monsters are real."
"Oh god," Willow mutters, looking down at George who looked even more terrified than before.

The Doctor is rapidly going through the cupboards in Alex's kitchen "You're supposed to be a professional. I'll never get him to sleep now. It's so irresponsible!" Alex rants as Willow sits on a cabinet.
