Plot
A Dalektable Adventure
While the group is travelling into the vortex once more, Wyldstyle asks Batman if they 'should have arrived' at this point. He agrees with her suggestion and asks her to check for anything in her Relic Scanner, with no luck. Gandalf, upon noticing the strange reactions from Wyldstyle's Relic Scanner, wonders what would happen to them. Just then, they hear the Twelfth Doctor telling them to join him in his TARDIS, as the latter appears in front of them, with the Doctor coming to their rescue.
Once he manages to get them out of the vortex, he then informs of them that they have monsters to deal with. Batman then confronts him about himself and what he was doing with them, while The Doctor asks Wyldstyle if Batman really acts like that, then repairs her Relic Scanner with his sonic screwdriver. He then explains about the TARDIS and time travel in a nutshell (while Gandalf briefly changing into Gandalf the White from fiddling with the TARDIS console before reverting back to his old self), and claimed that he had met them at some point of their lives, but they haven't met him in his current incarnation; Batman thinks he was lying, but then the Doctor shows him one Grapple Gun he recovered. After comparing the two Grapple Guns that he's holding on, Batman is still not convinced by The Doctor's proof, which has the Doctor calling him out for not believing him.
Once the TARDIS reappears itself in the Cyber Ship, The Doctor escorts the group outside. Before leaving, The Doctor gives Wyldstyle his phone number in case of emergency. He does wish to join in their quest to save the LEGO Multiverse, but said that him joining them at this point can mess up the Doctor Who World's timeline so badly that any damage 'can slip a needle through it (the vortex)'. As the TARDIS disappears, Gandalf, being confused, asks what is going on; Wyldstyle, however, said she couldn't explain it either, but theorized that another Keystone (Scale) is hidden in this world.
The group travel through the Cyber Ship encountering many cybermen of their way before accidentally reactivating a giant Cyber King which proceeds to attack the group. After a long battle the Cyber King's head detaches from it's body on tentacle like appendages and the trio give chase. They follow the Cyber King onto the planet's surface which is soon revealed to be the Trenzalore Graveyard and an army of weeping angels chase the three heroes before eventually cornering them inside a crashed Cyber Ship but thanks to Batman's quick thinking the escape through a trap door leaving the angel's looking at each other never to move again.
The trio then fall down into what appears to be a dalek hub deep beneath the surface of the planet with dormant daleks. Wyldstyle asks curiously what the daleks where. Gandalf responds in relief that at least they aren't the weeping angels. Suddenly the daleks reactivate and warn the group to stay still but Wyldstyle foolishly says they were friends of the doctor. Upon hearing this the daleks go berserk and demand to know where the doctor is. At which time the enormous dalek emperor towers above them and orders his daleks to exterminate them. The dalek emperor uses the shift keystone to enlarge two ordinary daleks and one special weapons dalek to destroy the group. After a long battle with the daleks the group use pieces of the daleks to construct a makeshift phone in order to call the doctor, after which the group is then surrounded by daleks the tardis arrives and a backflash of energy from the shift stone causes all the daleks to shrink. The dalek emperor orders the daleks to exterminate the doctor but the shrunken daleks do not even phase the doctor. the group then proceed to enter the tardis and tell the doctor to save their past selves from the rift loop and batman gives the doctor his grapple gun.
Further levels
Near the end of the game the trio begin recruiting a small band of the allies they have made over the course of the game, including Mystery Inc., the Ghostbusters, the space ship Defender, and even GLaDOS, and The Doctor, who was at the time captured by Zygons, Weeping Angels, Cybermen and Daleks. Fortunately, the trio disguised themselves as Zygons and defeated the enemies and freed The Doctor. Back at Vorton, The Doctor asks where the A.I. that needs fixing is and GLaDOS tells The Doctor to reinstall her amorality core but The Doctor merely scoffs at the GLaDOS and proceeds to repair X-PO. While the Doctor, GLaDOS, and X-PO work on a plan to seal Vortech away, the heroes head to Foundation Prime. With their allies' help, they are able to destroy the pad, which infuriates Vortech. He grows to an enormous size and attacks the trio, but the Doctor is able to manipulate the portal technology and sucks all of them into a rift loop. Using a special device he, GLaDOS, and X-PO designed, the heroes are able to seal Vortech in an endless rift prison for all eternity, saving the dimensions.
