Plot
Page 1
You are inside the TARDIS, moments after it has taken off. You had accidentally wandered into it at the park as it was hidden among the trees, not expecting it would turn out to be so impossibly big on the inside. The Doctor apologises for accidentally taking off with you, and you make small talk with his companion, a woman named Martha. The Doctor offers to take you home immediately, but you want to see how the ship works.
- If you ask politely to go on a trip in the TARDIS, go to 44. If you keep quiet and wait to see what happens, go to 98.
Page 98
Because you do not speak up, Martha does in your defense. She tells the Doctor that he's being mean and encourages him to allow you a trip in the TARDIS. You promise you can be relied on and that you'll do what you're told.
- If you remember to say thank you to Martha, go to 69.
- If a warning light flashing on the console distracts you, go to 64.
Page 64
You point to the flashing light on the console and ask if that is supposed to happen. The Doctor says the console has a lot of lights, and he rarely knows what they mean. At that moment, a deep throbbing siren starts to sound. The Doctor suddenly knows what is happening - the TARDIS is about to be sucked into a time squall. He says it's like surfing in a hurricane. You are hurdled to the ground...
- If you land under Martha, go to 63.
- If you land on Martha, go to 85.
