| == Summary ==
| |
| In the Oval Office, a telephone rings. President [[Richard Nixon]] answers. There is no response until Nixon asks "Is it you?", whereupon [[Melody Pond|a girl's]] voice tells him to look behind him. Nixon asks how she got the number, but she says that "[[Silent|they]]" are everywhere and people see them every day. Nixon states that there is nothing behind him and again asks how she got the phone number. The girl says the [[Astronaut|spacemen]] told her. Nixon does not know what she means. She insists it is not important, but the monsters are. Nixon replies that "there are no monsters in the Oval Office". The phone hangs up and he leans back in his chair, as a Silent stares at him.
