The casual viewer might be forgiven for assuming that he's ingested the wrong substances and is hallucinating a ''[[
Rose, meanwhile, has ended up in a futuristic ''[[
But no: it's a [[Massive Multiplayer Crossover]]. All three have in fact landed in the Game Station, which [[Doctor Who
The Doctor and Jack escape from their crossovers; the Doctor by realizing he's [[Plot Armor|too important for the system to kill]], and Jack by... well, let's not dwell on where he pulled that gun from. The Doctor also takes a girl named Lynda along as a future companion. They all rejoin ''[[
The Doctor, Jack and Lynda (whom Jack flirts with) are informed that they will be taken to a lunar penal colony to be held without trial or appeal. They respond by breaking out in about five seconds and making their way to floor 500 -- ''still'' not made of gold -- where the Doctor demands to know who's in charge and who just killed his friend. Unfortunately, the Controller -- the human supercomputer in charge of the satellite, who was installed at the age of ''5'' -- can only communicate with members of staff. One such staff member (whom Jack flirts with), however, has been keeping a log of mysterious encrypted signals and unauthorised transmissions, and he agrees with the Doctor's theory that this is just a cover for something else.
