The episode begins with the shot of Earth from ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'', only played in reverse. Amy narrates, saying what life with the Doctor is like; several clips of her adventures with him are shown in rapid succession. She then compares it to normal life; she and Rory live normal, uninteresting lives. They eventually talk about the two lives they have, thinking they have to choose one of them. However, the sound of the TARDIS materializing causes them to put off the decision for later. More clips are shown as Amy says that every time they go away, they become a part of the Doctor's life. However, he has never stuck around long enough to be part of theirs. That is, until the Year of the Slow Invasion. With the narrating done, a strange cube materializes on their dresser. | The episode begins with the shot of Earth from ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'', only played in reverse.

[[Brian Williams (Dinosaurs on a Spaceship)|Brian Williams]] presses the doorbell to Amy and Rory's home repeatedly while holding another strange black cube in his hand. Amy and Rory look out of the window, sleepy, and wonder why he is waking them up so early (it's 6 A.M.). Brian directs them to look around the streets; the cubes litter | [[Brian Williams (Dinosaurs on a Spaceship)|Brian Williams]] presses the doorbell to Amy and Rory's home repeatedly while holding another strange black cube in his hand. Amy and Rory look out of the window, sleepy, and wonder why he is waking them up so early (it's 6 A.M.). Brian directs them to look around the streets; the cubes litter every road within eyesight. They go outside, and Amy catches sight of the Doctor examining one of the cubes. The Doctor parks the TARDIS in the Ponds' living room and collects a couple cubes for observation. He asks his companions/family what they think the cubes could be, being given multiple, highly possible, explanations from Brian. Instructing Brian to watch the cubes in the TARDIS, the Doctor takes some equipment out with him and the Ponds. The Doctor explains that he is going to use their kitchen as a make-shift lab to conduct experiments while Rory leaves to get ready for work. The Doctor wonders what Amy has been up to, learning that she writes travel catalogues now. | ||
Setting up an experiment, the Doctor tells Amy that he is going to boil the cubes and see how they respond. At that very moment, soldiers break in and hold them at gunpoint; Rory, missing his trousers, is walked to the Doctor and Amy, much to his embarrassment. A woman named [[Kate Stewart]] enters and apologises for the rudeness of the soldiers; she examines the Doctor visually and with a small device, confirming his identity. Kate explains that she is now UNIT's Head of Scientific Research, having reorientated UNIT (as she said "kicking and screaming") into a science-based organization. She tracked artron energy to the Ponds' home in hopes of finding the Doctor. She goes onto explain that the cubes are all over Earth and have been subjected to every kind of destructive experiment they could think of; listing some of them. The Doctor decides that since they can't be destroyed, it's best to watch the cubes instead. | Setting up an experiment, the Doctor tells Amy that he is going to boil the cubes and see how they respond.
