He wakes up in a cell with Amy and looks through a small window to see they are in space, with an armada of Dalek saucers accompanying them. Rory vocally wonders how much trouble they're in; the Doctor is escorted in by Daleks, saying "On a scale of 1 to 10, Mr Pond? 11." They are then taken to the [[Parliament of the Daleks]], where Amy tells Rory everything the Doctor is thinking based on his movements; he's even figured out the two of them are having problems because they are not close to each other. As the Daleks seemed stunned, the Doctor says it's finally [[Christmas]] for them because they managed to capture their greatest enemy. Much to the Doctor's surprise, the assembled Daleks ''don't'' try to exterminate him. Wondering for what other reason they could have captured him, the Doctor is met with a surprise; the Daleks want the Doctor to ''save'' them, to which he replies, "Well, this is new." | He wakes up in a cell with Amy and looks through a small window to see they are in space, with an armada of Dalek saucers accompanying them.

The Parliament saucer brings them to a planet the Daleks call the [[Dalek Asylum|Asylum]], a place that the Doctor has heard of only in legend. It's a place where the Daleks dispose of those of their kind who go wrong: the insane, the battle-scarred and the uncontrollable. The Doctor learns, to his disgust, that the Daleks didn't destroy their insane brethren because they find destroying their "Divine Hatred" offensive, describing it to be beautiful. The whole planet is automated and surrounded by an impenetrable shield, but the Daleks have detected a signal of unknown origin on the planet. The Daleks never considered tracing it back and trying to communicate with the source. The Doctor traces the signal to a woman called [[Clara Oswald#Oswin Oswald|Oswin Oswald]], who has been hiding out on the remains of the crashed [[starliner]] ''[[Alaska ( | The Parliament saucer brings them to a planet the Daleks call the [[Dalek Asylum|Asylum]], a place that the Doctor has heard of only in legend.
