In a flashback, the Doctor walks up to a figure from the shadows in the a dark, damaged room with a fire burning in a corner. Speaking at a fizzling monitor, he addresses it with cold tranquility: "Imagine you were dying. Imagine you were afraid and a long way from home and in terrible pain. Just when you thought it couldn't get worse, you looked up and saw the face of the devil himself... Hello, [[Dalek]]."

Not trusting his intentions, the barman doesn't give a straight answer, until the Doctor brandishes the severed [[eyestalk]] of the same Supreme Dalek he dismantled. Gideon Vandaleur appears to speak with the Doctor as he reads ''[[Knitting for Girls]]'', but the Doctor knows the envoy has been dead for six months. He uses his sonic screwdriver to disable what this figure really is- the ''[[Teselecta]]'' in disguise. He stares into the eyes of the vehicle and asks to speak with the captain. They have been spying on [[the Silence]] and the Doctor wants to find their weakest link. The crew points him at [[Gantok]], the Silence's most exploitable agent. They play a game of [[Live Chess|live chess]]. To avoid checkmate or death, Gantok takes him to [[Dorium Maldovar]]'s head in the [[Seventh Transept]].

Dorium insists that if the Doctor lives, on the fields of [[Trenzalore]], at the fall of the Eleventh, when no creature can speak falsely or fail to answer, a question that must never be answered will be asked: [[The Question|the first question]], hidden in plain sight. He asks if his visitor wants to know the question. The Doctor agrees nervously.
