When Jack contacts Floor 500, he finds that the Doctor has sent Rose away. When Jack asks if the Delta Wave will be ready, the Dalek Emperor breaks in on the transmission, noting that the Wave can possibly be completed in time, but it will not be able to discriminate between human and Dalek; it will wipe all Daleks and humans within its long range. The Doctor replies that there are colonies in space and the human race will survive, but the whole universe is in danger if he lets the Daleks live. Jack tells the Doctor to keep working, and defiantly tells the Emperor that he has never, and will never doubt the Doctor. The Doctor questions the Emperor on how it managed to scatter the words "[[Bad Wolf meme|Bad Wolf]]" through history, but the Emperor replies that these words were not part of its design. | When Jack contacts Floor 500, he finds that the Doctor has sent Rose away.

Jack places Lynda in an observation deck which has a heavy door that will hopefully hold the Daleks out for a time. From the deck, Lynda will monitor the Station's sensors and update the rest of the humans on the Daleks' progress. Through the window, they see the fleet decelerate into Earth orbit, and thousands of Daleks begin to stream out from the saucers towards the Station. The Daleks force the [[airlock]] on Floor 494, and begin to work their way up, taking the internal [[laser]]s off-line and ruthlessly exterminating the first batch of defenders, their | Jack places Lynda in an observation deck which has a heavy door that will hopefully hold the Daleks out for a time.

The Daleks force the [[airlock]] on Floor 494, and begin to work their way up, taking the internal [[laser]]s off-line and ruthlessly exterminating the first batch of defenders, their basic bullets having no effect as they melt against the Dalek force fields (Jack's prediction that they "blow the Daleks wide open" was wrong). | ||
In the 21st century, Jackie and Mickey try to persuade Rose to just get on with her life. Rose tells them that she cannot, because the Doctor showed her a better way to live, just as he showed Mickey: you do not just give up; you make a stand and fight for what is right. As Mickey tries to reason with her, Rose notices the words "Bad Wolf" scrawled in six-foot high letters on a paved public area of the estate, and also in the form of graffiti on the surrounding walls. Rose realizes that the words are not a warning, but a message, telling her that she can still get back to the Doctor. She runs for the TARDIS, hoping at least to help the Doctor escape. She tells Mickey that the TARDIS is [[telepathy|telepathic]], and to make contact, they need to get inside it, open the console to get at the [[heart of the TARDIS]]. However, their first attempt to pry the console open by hooking a chain to Mickey's car is unsuccessful. | In the 21st century, Jackie and Mickey try to persuade Rose to just get on with her life.
