The Doctor and Donna reunite and find themselves the guests of honour at the Toymaker's puppet show: an attempt to recount to Donna the Doctor's adventures since leaving her. The Toymaker portrays the deaths of [[Amy Pond]], [[Clara Oswald]] and [[Bill Potts]] in puppet form, with the Doctor objecting that none of them died under his care; all three continued to live on in some form. The Toymaker is dismissive and treats the nit-picking with contempt, until mentioning how [[the Flux]] ravaged the universe under the Doctor's watch provokes the Doctor into challenging the Toymaker to a game. The Toymaker accepts, bragging as they prepare about his fun since arriving in [[the Doctor's universe]]. He has already turned [[God (mythology)|God]] into a [[Jack-in-the-Box]], made a jigsaw out of [[The Doctor's early life|the Doctor's history]], and sealed the [[Spy Master]] inside his gold tooth after [[Game between the Toymaker and the Master|he lost the game]] that was his last hope for life. However, there was one the Toymaker did not face, "[[the One Who Waits]]", but he considers that someone else's game when the Doctor asks who they are. | The Doctor and Donna reunite and find themselves the guests of honour at the Toymaker's puppet show: an attempt to recount to Donna the Doctor's adventures since leaving her.

The Doctor and the Toymaker decide on a game: [[Game between the Toymaker and the Fourteenth Doctor|a simple cut of the deck where the highest card wins]]. After confirming the rules and assuring Donna the Toymaker can't [[cheat]] even though he is using [[The Toymaker's cards|his own conjured cards]], the pair play. The Doctor turns over an [[Eight of Clubs|eight]], but the Toymaker unveils a [[King of Hearts (card|king]] and wins. As the Toymaker moves to claim his prize, the Doctor points out that, since [[Trilogic Game|he won the previous game]], they are therefore tied [[one-all]] and a third game is required to declare an absolute winner in a [[best of three]]. The Toymaker agrees and disappears after declaring 2023 will be their battleground, causing the labyrinth to collapse around the Doctor and Donna and the toy store to fold into a small toy box. The duo escape in time, realising the Toymaker intends to play the third game in their present day. | The Doctor and the Toymaker decide on a game: [[Game between the Toymaker and the Fourteenth Doctor|a simple cut of the deck where the highest card wins]].

Back at UNIT HQ, Kate manages to have the KOSAT 5 satellite shot down using the [[galvanic beam]], breaking the satellite chain triggering the giggle. The Doctor arrives and hands Mel the toy box, warning her to be careful with it, and explaining to Shirley that the Toymaker is an elemental force who can meddle with reality, stepping from 1925 to the present as if walking through a door. The Toymaker promptly walks through a door he creates in the middle of the room, performing a dance number to "[[Spice Up Your Life]]" by the [[Spice Girls]] as he pulls Kate and Mel into dances to knock them down, collapses two soldiers trying to detain him into coloured bouncy sentient balls, and turns the other UNIT troops' bullets into harmless red rose petals. As the song ends, the Toymaker disappears through the floor before materialising on the helipad manning the galvanic beam. The Doctor begs the Toymaker to stop, offering to leave with him to take their game to the stars. The Toymaker is tempted, but declines; he considers [[Earth]] the ultimate playground. | Back at UNIT HQ, Kate manages to have the KOSAT 5 satellite shot down using the [[galvanic beam]], breaking the satellite chain triggering the giggle.
