Montresor does not register Mel's presence, however, and the Doctor notes that the character of Montresor in [[The Cask of Amontillado|one of Poe's stories]] takes only Fortunato into the catacombs. Montresor chains the Doctor to a wall inside a niche, bricks him up and departs, allowing Mel to dismantle the wall and release the Doctor using a [[lockpick]] from one of [[the Doctor's pockets|his pockets]]. Another portal takes them back to the spaceship, now captained by [[Edgar Android Poe]], but they are soon chased by the raven back through a portal to the world of ''[[The Masque of the Red Death]]''. A cloaked figure interrupts [[Prospero (The Ultimate Poe)|Prince Prospero]]'s [[masquerade]] and is torn apart by the revellers after the prince, chasing the figure, falls dead. The figure is without form, however, and the revellers begin to die of the Red Death. | Montresor does not register Mel's presence, however, and the Doctor notes that the character of Montresor in [[The Cask of Amontillado|one of Poe's stories]] takes only Fortunato into the catacombs.

Another portal returns the Doctor and Mel to the spaceship, now staffed by [[hologram]]matic figures and captained by [[Edgar AI Poe]], who is unsure why the two travellers are not yet dead and has the raven chase them towards a portal once again. | Another portal returns the Doctor and Mel to the spaceship, now staffed by [[hologram]]matic figures and captained by [[Edgar AI Poe]], who is unsure why the two travellers are not yet dead and has the raven chase them towards a portal once again. This time, the Doctor arrives alone with the ailing [[Roderick Usher]] as the [[House of Usher]] starts to fall apart whilst Mel takes on the role of [[Madeline Usher|Madeline]], Roderick's prematurely entombed sister, and frightens Roderick to death. As the house crumbles, the Doctor carries the now unconscious Mel outside and through another portal which transports them to a [[bedroom]]. They share a [[hug]] and the Doctor deduces that they are in ''[[The Telltale Heart]]'', standing above a corpse hidden under the floorboards. | ||
