Restaurant (Rose): Difference between revisions

By [[2005]], there was a '''[[restaurant]]''' located in [[Kennington]], [[South London]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre (short story)|The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre]]'') The [[Mickey Smith (Auton)|duplicate of Mickey Smith]] took [[Rose Tyler]] there, on the ruse of getting [[pizza]], to attempt to learn information about the [[Ninth Doctor]] and his plans. ([[TV]]: ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'')

According to one account, the restaurant was called '''Toni Jo's Pizzeria''', ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'') however, according to another, the restaurant had [[menu]]s labelled '''La Fosse'''. ([[TV]]: ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'')

The restaurant was fairly elegant and well-lit, with many [[mirror]]s, [[chrome]] poles, [[white]] surfaces, and a [[wood]]en [[floor]]. The chairs were simplistic designs with a [[grey]] and chrome colour scheme, and the tables were complete with [[purple]] [[tablecloth]]s, [[glass]] [[cup]]s, [[napkin]]s, [[cutlery]], and [[menu]]s. The [[kitchen]], also very clean, contained [[sink]]s, [[oven]]s, [[ladle]]s, [[bowl]]s, and [[plate]]s. Some of the visible ingredients were [[leek]]s, [[tomato]]s, and [[lemon]]s. Outside, there were [[bin]]s, [[oil]] cans, and [[pallet]]s, as well as some [[bag]]s labelled "[[G's]]". ([[TV]]: ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'')

On [[5 March]] [[2005]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Aliens of London (TV story)|Aliens of London]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Secret Lives of Monsters (short story)|The Secret Lives of Monsters]]'', etc.) or [[26 March]] 2005, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre (short story)|The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre]]'', ''[[Operation Mannequin (short story)|Operation Mannequin]]'') after [[Rose Tyler]] left [[Clive Finch]]'s [[1 Juke Street|home]], she got back inside [[Mickey Smith]]'s [[Mickey Smith's Volkswagen Beetle|Volkswagen Beetle]], unaware that in her absence Mickey had been replaced with [[Mickey Smith (Auton)|a plastic duplicate]]. They agreed to get [[pizza]], so Mickey took her to the restaurant; after being seated, Rose tried conversing about her options after [[Henrik's|her workplace]] was blown up by the [[Ninth Doctor]], but the duplicate of Mickey was only interested in probing Rose for information. Although they were too preoccupied to fully acknowledge him, the Doctor arrived and began trying to serve them [[champagne]]; when the duplicate finally did realise that the Doctor was standing in front of him, the Doctor shot a [[cork]] into the duplicate's head, causing it to give the up charade and proceed to attack to attack Rose, the Doctor, and the other patrons. Rose activated the [[fire alarm]] while the Doctor beheaded the duplicate and took the head with him as he and Rose escaped to the back courtyard. ([[TV]]: ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'') As this unfolded, the restaurant's [[CCTV]] cameras recorded everything; the cameras gave the time as 08:08[[PM]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre (short story)|The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre]]'') although a timeline provided of the "[[Dummy Massacre]]" that happened later indicated that this would've happened prior to 7PM. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dummy Massacre (short story)|Dummy Massacre]]'')

Outside, with the duplicate only being prevented from reaching them by a metal [[door]] that was increasingly getting close to breaking with each hit from the duplicate's weaponised hands, Rose tried to get out onto the [[street]], but the Doctor told her to enter [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] instead. Despite trying run away, she followed the Doctor into the TARDIS, unaware that it was [[bigger on the inside]]. In shock, she exited and circled the TARDIS, trying to understand, but quickly re-enters when the duplicate finally broke through the door. The Doctor, using the duplicate's head, begins tracking the signal that operated it to its source and [[dematerialise]]s the TARDIS, but as the head began to melt, the signal too began fading. ([[TV]]: ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'')

Around a [[week]] later, on [[2 April]], the "new webmaster" of [[Who is Doctor Who?]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre (short story)|The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre]]'') really Mickey Smith, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Hoax This! (short story)|Hoax This!]]'', ''[[Mars (WiDW short story)|Mars]]'', etc.) wrote on the website about the attack at the restaurant, as it was the only place in the "[[Killing Ground]]s" that had [[CCTV]] [[footage]] of the Doctor, which the webmaster believed was because the Doctor was going around removing [[evidence]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre (short story)|The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre]]'') although this was probably the work of [[UNIT United Kingdom|UNIT]]'s efforts to suppress footage of the attack circulating on the [[Internet]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Operation Mannequin (short story)|Operation Mannequin]]'') The webmaster speculated about the Doctor's motives and if the "special model" of the Killer Dummies was still [[danger]]ous. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre (short story)|The Doctor Was Involved in the Dummy Massacre]]'')

According to one account, [[K9 (K9: Deja Who)|K9]] fought the Auton duplicate of Mickey in the restaurant, using an [[ice]] [[photon beam]] to defeat him. ([[GAME]]: ''[[K9: Deja Who (video game)|K9: Deja Who]]'')
