The Doctor, known everywhere by his Police Box and with a billion cred bounty on his head for persecuting bad guys, risks a visit to [[Sunset Strip]] a lawless area between galaxies for a cup of [[Darjeeling]] and a couple of [[macaroon]]s, before making a hasty exit en route to the weekly tech fair. Rose describes it as "Planet of the Gangsters". In a back alley they find Doll and her robot being held up by the [[Horsegoon|Trigger Brothers]]. The Doctor intervenes and gets captured. A Detective Robot is shot and Rose makes off with Doll to a safe place. | [[Tenth Doctor|The Doctor]], known everywhere by [[The Doctor's TARDIS|his Police Box]] and with a billion cred bounty on his head for persecuting bad guys, risks a visit to [[Sunset Strip]] a lawless area between galaxies for a cup of [[Darjeeling]] and a couple of [[macaroon]]s, before making a hasty exit en route to the weekly tech fair.

The Doctor is taken to see the Boss, Mr [[Lippizzaner]] (aka Lipps), who is dealing in arms: exoskeletal stongarms from [[Tashkent]] supplied by [[Corpulone|Don Corpulone]] and his sons ([[Corpulone|Blonk]] and [[Corpulone|Gluey]]). The wearer of these arms, with five different charge levels including hi-velocity, incendiary and ricochet, is slaved to a remote control hub. In return for ten single arms, Don Corpulone wants Lips to find his daughter, [[Doll Corpulone|Doll]] and "the Bird" she has taken from him. The Doctor is forced to call Rose to arrange a meet and swap at the Dockyards, Doll for the Doctor. | The Doctor is taken to see the Boss, Mr [[Lippizzaner]] (aka Lipps), who is dealing in arms: exoskeletal stongarms from [[Tashkent]] supplied by [[Corpulone|Don Corpulone]] and his sons ([[Corpulone|Blonk]] and [[Corpulone|Gluey]]).
