A [[purple]] [[poster]] in the [[Deffry Vale High School]] staff room included the [[word]] "'''planning'''" in [[white]] text. ([[TV]]: ''[[School Reunion (TV story)|School Reunion]]'')
 
A '''plan''' referred to one's strategy for carrying out an objective.
 
== The Doctor ==
While [[Clara Oswald]] believed that "people always have plans", the [[Eleventh Doctor]] flagged himself as the exception. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Bells of Saint John (TV story)|The Bells of Saint John]]'') The [[Dalek]]s believed that [[the Doctor]] always had a plan and were hesitant to open fire on him in case he had some manner of failsafe to turn against them. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Enigma Dimension (audio story)|The Enigma Dimension]]'', ''[[PROSE]]'': ''[[Father of the Daleks (short story)|Father of the Daleks]]'')
 
== The Master ==
Upon regenerating, the [[Saxon Master]] mocked the [[Tenth Doctor]] by stating that, unlike their prior clashes, he would not be explaining his plans to [[the Doctor]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Utopia (TV story)|Utopia]]'') The [[Spy Master]] later mockingly referred to his alliance with the Daleks as "[[The Master's Dalek Plan]]". ([[TV]]: ''[[The Power of the Doctor (TV story)|The Power of the Doctor]]'')
 
== Daleks ==
At the onset of the [[Thal-Dalek battle]], the [[Dalek]]s of the [[Dalek City]] discovered that they had evolved to become dependent on [[radiation]] and planned to flood the [[atmosphere]] of [[Skaro]] with nuclear waste. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Daleks (TV story)|The Daleks]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Lights of Skaro (audio story)|The Lights of Skaro]]'') Fifty [[cycle]]s later, when [[Susan]] was exploring the derelict Dalek City, she discovered its floor plan. Comparing the layout to its electrical grid allowed her to deduce the existence of the [[incubation level]], leading the group to discover the Daleks' new plan of weaponising the network of [[ionising tower]]s. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Return to Skaro (audio story)|Return to Skaro]]'')
 
The [[Time Destructor Incident]] was referred to by the [[Time Lord]]s as the "Dalek Masterplan incident". ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Survival Guide (novel)|Dalek Survival Guide]]'') By the time of the [[Twelfth Doctor]]'s [[regeneration]], he kept a [[VHS]] tape of the [[Daleks' master plan]] in [[The Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]]. The [[Dalek]]s, by contrast, had lost their record of their master plan. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Twice Upon a Time (novelisation)|Twice Upon a Time]]'')

A [[purple]] [[poster]] in the [[Deffry Vale High School]] staff room included the [[word]] "planning" in [[white]] text. ([[TV]]: ''[[School Reunion (TV story)|School Reunion]]'')
 
During [[Truth or Consequences (group)|Truth or Consequences]]'s attempted takeover of [[Earth]], the Twelfth Doctor spoke to [[Bonnie (The Zygon Invasion)|Bonnie]] and asked her what her plan was, even joking that the word [[planet]] was chosen to remind would-be conquerors to "plan it". When in the [[Black Archive]], the Doctor concluded that Bonnie did not actually have a long-term plan. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Zygon Inversion (TV story)|The Zygon Inversion]]'')
