''to | The Cerebravore searches through the Doctor's memories, however he is able to defeat the Cerebravore using his sonic screwdriver, freeing a Fleshkind. She was forced to weaponise the Cerebravore, removing their benignity and hive mind and turning them into telepathic hunters - who in turn destroyed her own world. | ||
On Earth, Gabby's family is wondering where she is; she is faced by telepathic projections in the laundromat. Singing, she enters her wallet into the washing machine to extend the portal. The Doctor falls through the portal, narrowly avoiding a Cerebravore. Passing the headset to the Doctor, they run from the laundromat roof back to the TARDIS. In the TARDIS, Gabby asks the Doctor if he is an alien. The Doctor makes adjustments to the headset to use it as an Empathetic Field Amplifier. Trinity Wells warns New York residents to avoid the Brooklyn area, particularly Sunset Park, with public transport and communications shut-off. The Doctor tells Gabby she needs to keep singing. | |||
Evading Cerebravores, they are able to locate her family celebrating the Day of the Dead ceremony in the cemetery. She introduces the Doctor to her family, but the festivities are soon interrupted by the approaching Cerebravores. Creating an orchestra of song, the Cerebravores are contained within the cemetery and by punching the button on the Empathetic Field Amplifier, it amplifies the song, destroying the laundromat and removing the spirits of the Cerebravores across the city. Gabby is scared to face up to her father, however he is proud of her and tells her to follow her dreams. The Doctor speculates that the Pragnavores may have made him kinder. Having accepted a meal with the family, Gabby has worked out that the TARDIS can travel through space and wants to travel with him, seeing him as a better teacher than any college. However, the Doctor is wary as "friends of mine have been hurt" recently and they agree to part ways, telling her to have a "brilliant life" and to "keep singing". However, when she says a saying of her grandmother's, [[The End of Time (TV story)|"no song should end too soon"]], resembling Carmen's prophecy ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Dead (TV story)|Planet of the Dead]]''), he agrees to one trip. | |||
