Palace}
(The restored Monarch and his guards charge through the building.)
CHARLES: Out of my way!
(His way is blocked by a locked door. Inside the room, a large unfinished painting shows the naked Doctor as Neptune about to be crowned by a cherub.)
CHARLES [OC]: Doctor! Doctor! Doctor! Doctor!
(The irate king bursts in, sword drawn, and confronts the lady artist, who is possibly one of his many illegitimate children.)
CHARLES: Where's the Doctor?
MATILDA: Doctor who?
DOCTOR [OC]: Achoo!
(The Doctor is hiding underneath Matilda's voluminous skirts.)
DOCTOR: You know, this isn't nearly as bad as it looks.
[Kitchen]
(Amy is reading from a history book while Rory unpacks the shopping.)
AMY: At the personal intervention of the King, the unnamed Doctor was incarcerated without trial in the Tower of London.
RORY: Okay, but it doesn't have to be him.
AMY: According to contemporary accounts, two nights later, a magical sphere some twenty feet across, was seen floating away from the tower, bearing the mysterious Doctor aloft.
RORY: Okay. It's him.
AMY: There's more.
[Tunnel]
(A classic World War 2 escape is in progress.)
SIMMONS: Doctor. Doctor, what can you see?
(The Doctor's head appears from the top of the tunnel.)
DOCTOR: Is the commandant's office painted a sort of green colour with a big flag on the wall?
(A siren sounds and dogs start barking.)
DOCTOR: I think the answer's probably yes.
[Living room]
AMY: It's like he's being deliberately ridiculous, trying to attract our attention. Are you watching this again?
(A Laurel and Hardy film, most likely the Flying Deuces.)
RORY: Yeah. I've explained the jokes.
(The doorbell rings and Amy answers it. The postman hands over some letters.)
RORY: So what are you saying? Do you really think he's back there, trying to wave to us, out of history books?
(Completely missing the Doctor in a fez waving to the viewer before joining in Stan and Ollie's dance.)
AMY: Hey, it's the sort of thing he'd do. Thanks.
RORY: Yeah, but why?
AMY: Well, he said he'd be in touch.
RORY: Two months ago.
AMY: Two months is nothing. He's up to something. I know he is. I know him.
(She opens an envelope with the number 3 on the back.)
RORY: What is it? Amy?
AMY: A date, a time, a map reference. I think it's an invitation.
RORY: From who?
AMY: It's not signed. Look, Tardis blue.
