Opens with our
travellers being chased by Canton.
Rory
A three month gap? That’s never good. In Star Trek they were
always losing during the three month gaps.
Amy
Why are you doing this?
Canton
To take advantage of location shooting. We should use it when we have
it.
*****
Doctor
Canton
you're building the perfect prison… well besides the Pandorica. It’s a good job
you managed to sneak my invisible Tardis in here.
Canton
Yeah for all of the Tardis security features it sure is easy to
move.
Doctor
Well I can’t have it getting me out of trouble all the time.
It needs to be stolen occasionally.
*****
Rory
They’re everywhere. Everywhere! It’s an occupation!
Doctor
Which is why we’ll split up to record vocal information. They’ll
never catch on to it and vaporise us one by one.
Rory
How quaint. What about a portable projector to keep their
image on the Tardis wall so we’d remember what we have learnt? Or we could keep
pictures of them in our wallets, on our watch…
Doctor
Don’t start that again.
Canton and Amy go to an orphanage where the
manager has forgotten it’s been closed for two years… So have the lawyers,
estate agents, child agencies, his family, friends and utility suppliers. The Silence sure are thorough.
Amy
Wandering around alone in the dark sure is fun when you’re
looking for dangerous aliens. Whait my recorders flashing, I’ll go out the
window. Ahh! That’s a scary image. Shouldn’t we be worried about the kids?
Writer Steven Moffat
No its ok this is culture.
Amy
Culture?
Writer Steven Moffat
Yeah we’re exporting British culture to America
remember?
The impossible girl astronaut appears.
The impossible girl
astronaut
Help!
Amy
Sorry to shoot at you before. Luckily I’m a lousy shot.
The impossible girl
astronaut appears
I hope that’s not genetic.
The Doctor and Rory
arrive.
Rory
Where’s Amy?
Canton
Sorry I was failing to get information out of the manager
when it happened.
Silence
We are the silence. Silence will fall.
Rory
Great. We don’t need to worry then.
Silence
No I didn’t mean… never mind you’ll forget what I say
anyway.
Doctor
So humans decided to go to the moon because the Silence
wanted a spacesuit?
Rory
That doesn’t make any sense the Russians proved they had
working space suits first.
Doctor
Yes but it would have been harder to film and market to Russia.
*****
Canton
Say something incriminating to this camera I’m clearly
holding.
Silence
We’re called the Silence we don’t just talk for the sake of
it.
Canton
Amuse me.
Silence
Oh ok. Kill us on sight. Do not hesitate, show no mercy then
dispose of our bodies so that you don’t remember us again.
Canton
Wow that was a lot better than I expected.
The Doctors lands inside the Tardis of the Silence.
Doctor
Want to watch the moon landing on television? You should,
you helped it happen which does devalue the achievement somewhat.
Silence
It is worse than that. We have been influencing humans since they
made fire.
Doctor
What? Then why haven’t I met you before?
Silence
We’re quite.
Doctor
Well not any more.
Video Recording of
Silence
Kill us on sight.
Silence
That idiot!
River Song
You’re a big scary alien no ones shot you on sight before?
Silence
Amazingly not.
River Song
So you’re not prepared for me then.
River shoots them all
while the Doctor distracts her with his screwdriver.
River Song
Yeah thanks for the help honey. Didn't I shoot efficiently
considering I forget them the moment I take my eyes off them. Gosh I hope my
old fella didn’t see me do that.
Rory
If I wasn’t so astonished I might read something into what
you just said.
****
President Nixon
We’re safe now then?
Doctor
Kind of. I’d keep recording conversations though.
Amy
So I guess we’re now going to look for the girl in
the spacesuit?
Writer Steven Moffat
Haha yeah right. I’ wil tease you with the girls regeneration
though.
Doctor
Well I really think I need a holiday. How about a cruise?
