Penny accuses Miss Foster of faking her results. As Penny is dragged to Miss Foster's office by her guards, Donna follows, peeking through the office door. The Doctor zips to the roof, fiddles with a window-cleaning crane and drops down to the office window. He watches the same event from the other side of the room. Unable to quite see what's going on, both pop their heads up — only to spot each other. They mouth frantic questions to each other while Donna does her best to mime her answers, all the while unaware that they are being watched by Miss Foster and everybody in her office. "Are we interrupting you?"

Donna runs, while the Doctor locks the door with his [[the Doctor's sonic screwdriver|sonic screwdriver]] and raises his window-cleaning cradle to the roof, before racing to the stairs. The pair ''finally'' meet, but have to keep running and head back to the window-cleaning cradle to lower themselves down for a quick getaway. Before that, though, Donna explains how she went about searching for the Doctor. "'Cause I thought, "How do you find the Doctor?" And then I just thought, "Look for trouble, and then he'll turn up." So I looked everywhere — you name it. [[UFO]] sightings, [[crop circle]]s, sea monsters — I looked, I found them all. Like that stuff about the [[bee]]s disappearing, I thought, "I bet he's connected." 'Cause the thing is, Doctor, I believe it all now. You opened my eyes to all those amazing things out there. I believe them all..."

However, even though the Doctor locks the pulley with his sonic screwdriver, Miss Foster has a [[sonic device]] of her own. She uses her [[sonic pen]] to cut one side of the supporting ropes, making Donna fall out and hanging to the broke rope. Before Miss Foster can cut the other one, the Doctor uses his sonic to knock the pen out of her hand and into his; he uses it to open a window in below Donna and swings Donna inside before following after her. Intrigued someone with advanced technology has appeared, Miss Foster heads back in with her guards to confront the Doctor.

A child sees them as it ascends, waving at them. They wave back as the Doctor admits that as a weight loss plan, the Adipose birthing has its merits. They see Cofelia in another beam on her way up to the nursery ship. The Doctor pleads with her to get over to the roof; the Adiposian First Family is aware that their actions are illegal, which means they need to get rid of their accomplice. Cofelia dismisses the threat because she's the nanny - but the Doctor remains worried, exclaiming, "Exactly! Mum and Dad have got the kids now - they don't need the [[nanny]] ''anymore!''" At that moment, the levitation beam carrying Miss Foster is switched off, and Miss Foster, with just enough time to realise her fate, falls to her death as the Doctor comforts a terrified Donna. Immediately afterwards, the nursery ship leaves Earth.

Back on the street the Doctor bins the sonic pen as Penny — tied again to her chair — flees the building, unable to cope with what's been happening; comically running off still tied up, she yells that the two of them mad. Donna points out, "Some people just can't take it." Donna promptly drags the Doctor off to the TARDIS — and is delighted to realise he parked just a few feet from her [[car]]; it's just like [[destiny]]!
Back on the street the Doctor bins the sonic pen as Penny — tied again to her chair — flees the building, unable to cope with what's been happening; comically running off still tied up, she yells that the two of them are mad and she will report them for "madness".

She promptly starts hauling a ridiculous amount of luggage out of the car boot and shoving it into the Doctor's arms, saying she's been ready to go for ages. The Doctor warns that it is a hard life but accepts her, saying that he just wants a mate. She misunderstands this to mean that he wants "''to'' [[sex|mate]]", saying he's just a "long streak of nothing" and exclaiming, "Well, you're not mating with ''me'', sunshine!" The misunderstanding mostly resolved, Donna then calls her mum to say she's put the car keys in a certain bin for her to collect before asking a blonde girl to tell her mother, "That bin there". While Donna returns to the TARDIS, the girl, a sad-looking [[Rose Tyler]], walks off down the street and disappears into thin air...
