Scene 5

In Amelia's garden.
Jack: Doctor. Who's Mels?
Doctor: Melody Pond. Amy's and Rory's daughter. It's River Song. She had to hide, give away her true name would have killed her... - and me.
Jenny: So we're gonna walk in there and ask... what?
Jack: Good point. What is it we need to know? We dont't even know what to ask!
Doctor: Don't worry, I know what I'm doing.
They reach the door.
Doctor: (pointing his sonic screwdriver on the lock) There's something I'm missing... But what?
They step inside.

Scene 4

Jack: (to Jenny) Well... The Doctor is a Timelord... Just as you are! They have a little trick... When a Timelord is about to die, he can just change his body... as if he was being reborn... The memories stay the same, but except that, everything changes...
Jenny : That's why you look different now?
Doctor : Yes...
Jenny : But I still don't know what it has to do with the fall of the eleventh...
Jack : You saw the faces of the Teselecta when it looked like the incarnations of the Doctor... Remember how many there were.
Jenny : Closing her eyes to remember) Ten!
Doctor : Which means... ?
Jenny : (scared) You're the eleventh?!
Doctor : Apparently I am...
Amy : If you die... again... for the third time since I know you... I'm gonna be very cross!
Jenny : Three times?!
River : Don't ask... He was persuaded that it was the only way to save the universe...
Doctor : And I would do it again anytime! My life isn't more important than the continuing existence of the whole universe!
River : You see? And right now you're wrong! The universe was close to its end many times since you started travelling and everytime you saved it! If you wouldn't have been there, none of us would have been born!
Doctor : Who knows? Maybe none of these things would've happened if I'd just died all those years ago, instead of regenerating!
Amy : And prevent my child's birth?!
Rory : (correcting her) Our child...
Amy : However - she would never have been born! She's your wife! You can't want your wife not to exist!
River : Don't put him under pressure mother, he has so many decisions to make...
Dcotor : (speechless) River... Don't...
Jack : You're supposed to say thanks...
Doctor : Thank you, River. Of course I don't want you to vanish...
River : I know... Don't worry about that... (smiles softly)
Amy : Whatever it takes! We're gonna find a way to save you. You don't need to sacrifice yourself. We're with you. You're not alone.
Rory : Remember when I slapped you because you said my girlfriend wasn't more important than the whole universe? 
Doctor : (hesitating, taking a step back) Yes...
Rory : I don't want to slap you again. So don't make me.
Amy : (to the Doctor) You said what?
Rory : Don't worry, he just wanted to make sure I was myself and not that shooting plastic roman...
Jack : (ironic) How romantic! Look, this won't help us forward... We need to find out what this all means...
Doctor : (out of nowhere) River!!
River : (surprised) What is it?
Doctor : When I first met you, you told me, last time you saw me, I had a new suit and new haircut... Since it can't be this suit and haircut, that must mean I'm gonna get away with it!
River : But... (worried) Time can be rewritten... And why can't it be this suit and haircut?
Doctor : But that must happen! I can't tell you why, you mustn't know...
River : Of course... I know... Spoilers...
Amy : Now that's a first... The Doctor knows and you don't... Though it concerns you two...It's kind of weird actually... Isn't it?
Rory, River and the Doctor nod in approval.
Doctor : (mumbling under his breath) I'd prefer not to know...
River : What did you say?
Doctor : That day... I took your diary because I was curious, you told me I was not allowed to see it... I understand it now... You loved me and you didn't want me to know what was going to happen to me...
River : Yes... It's not always positive... But knowing and not being allowed to tell and not being able to change it... That's the worst suffering in the world...
Doctor nods sadly.
Jenny : So you're not gonna die. But we still need to find out what's going on...
Doctor : Right! So what do we do?
Amy : First we need to know what I had in common with all those people... with... you... (looking at the Doctor)
Jenny : Right! The Teselecta took your shapes too...
Doctor : But I can't cross my own timeline and I really can't figure out what it might be...
Amy : So I can't cross my own timeline either... Can I?
Doctor : No you can't - But we can! You just need to stay inside the TARDIS... But this time you do as I say!
Amy : What happens if I cross my own timeline? I met my 7year old self when I got out of the Pandorica... Nothing happened...
Doctor : That's because the universe was already collapsing...It couldn't have collapsed more... If you meet yourself, you create a paradox and if you touch yourself... I'd rather not be you...
Amy : (scared) I think I'm gonna stay inside the TARDIS...
Rory : I'm gonna stay with you... In case I'm at your house when the Doctor shows up...
Amy : But then River needs to stay in too... (seeing the Doctor's confusion) Remember Mels?
Doctor : Of course! So it's gonna be me Jack and Jenny... Let's go!
The three of them get out of the TARDIS.

Scene 3

Jack : (worried) Come on, it's over here... But beware ; you might be a bit surprised...
They get down to the cellar and find a half-burnt Rose Tyler.
Doctor : Oh my god! How can she be here? (points his sonic on her)
Jack : It's not her. It said there was a problem with the interface...
The creature switches appearences and looks now like Donna Noble.

Amy : (realizing who it is, approaching and looking in the eye) Oh my god! We nearly burnt them!
Jenny : You did this?!
River : The Doctor made us think it was him, he died and a Timelord must be burnt when dead...
Jenny : (to the Doctor) So you nearly killed them... On purpose?!
Doctor : Of course not! There must've been something wrong with the Teselecta... it shouldn't have been damaged...
The ship's appearence changes again, this time it looks like Rassilon.
Doctor : Who did it look like before I came?
Jack : We've got records, I'll show you.
They watch the records of the camera in fast forward : the ship changed from the 10 previous Doctors (in disorder), through Martha, Mickey, the Master to Rose Tyler.
Doctor : It's related with me... Those are all persons I know...
While he turns around, the ship turns into Wilfred Mott.
Amy : Who are all those people?
Doctor : Mostly me... And some former friends...
Rory : (with some disgust) Former...? Why former? What happened to them?
Doctor : Well... amnesia... love... parallel world...
Rory : Waht about the insane looking one?
Doctor : That was the Master... a Timelord... He's always been trying to fight me... He's now locked up in the Time war with the others of my species...
River : So... something with you... but what?
Jack : If only we knew...
Rory : But... (pointing to the Teselecta) They should know... shouldn't they?
Jenny : It said, only the Doctor would know. It said it had something to do with a question...
Doctor : (alarmed) What kind of a question?
Ship : (looking like the young Amelia) The oldest question. The question that is never to be answered, hidden in plain sight. The question of the Universe...


Doctor : (resigned, whispering) Doctor who...
Amy & Rory : What?
Jack : Doctor, what does it mean?
Doctor : Something bad... Something really devastating... A question so old, no one remembers the answer... (to the ship) But how could it affect you?
Ship : (looking like Craig Owens) We don't know... Only the Doctor knows...
Doctor : Don't you have any records of me related to that question?
Ship : We don't have any access to our records anymore... The only thing we know and the reason why we're here is that it has to be answered. We don't know by whom or when exactly... But it needs an answer... It's the only way to prevent what will happen...
Amy : Why? What will happen?
Doctor : I have to admit... I don't know... This is getting usual... I don't like the feeling...
Ship : (Canton Everett Delaware the 3rd) Something will happen that is going to change everything... We don't know if into good or bad... But it will change... You need to do something!
Rory: By "change everything" you mean the turn of things... or what?
Ship : Yes... People will never have been born, humans could ceise to exist... Anything could happen...
River : The Doctor could be cancelled, couldn't he?
Ship : It is certain that the Doctor would not exist in this new universe.
Jenny : So we need to stop it!
Amy : I think we all agree over that point...
Rory : But how?
River : First we need to find out why the ship takes the appearences of all these people...
Jack : Well... What do they have in common except their meeting the Doctor?
Amy : I guess this question is harder to answer than it might seem... But at least we have something to work with (the others look at her confused) Me. I was in it... We only need to know what my 7year-old self has in common with these people...
Doctor : Right! But I think it's not really going to help...
Teselecta turns into Dorium Moldova.
Ship : Doctor... Can't you figure it out? (Something breaks and explodes inside the ship) Sorry we lost control for a moment... What just happened?
Doctor : (stopping Amy from saying something) Nothing! There was just an explosion... (looking at Amy as if he wanted to say that they shouldn't talk about it) So! Everybody in the TARDIS! We've got some work to do!
Rory : (once out of reach of the Teselecta) Doctor, what's going on? Do we have a clue?
Doctor : Dorium himself told me what the question was... He spoke of the fall of the eleventh... I think I know the key, but I need to know something else first!
Jenny : Fall of the eleventh? What's that supposed to mean?
Jack : You should understand it... (to the Doctor) Shouldn't she?
Doctor : (looking distracted while opening the TARDIS-door) Not necessarily... Nobody told her... Regeneration is in the genes, but not the knowledge about it...
They go inside the TARDIS.
