Spoilers: Parting of the Ways.
Summary: Saving the day takes time, and right now the Doctor doesn’t have any to spare.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Doctor Who, or the characters.
The Doctor is a genius, he can rig up a contraption to do just about anything he needs, using nothing but what happens to be lying around. He’s done it countless times already, in all manner of circumstances, and he’s never failed, so why should it be any different this time?
Well, time’s kind of the problem; there isn’t enough of it. The Doctor needs three days but he’s only got twenty-two minutes. Might be a bit tight.
He’s not giving up though, he’ll build the Delta Wave. He just needs someone to hold off the Daleks for a bit.
The End
