The [[TARDIS]] materializes in the [[Wikipedia:Churchill War Rooms|Cabinet War Rooms]] during [[World War II]], in response to [[Winston Churchill]]'s call for help at the end of [[The Beast Below]]. [[Eleventh Doctor|The Doctor]] is greeted by the Prime Minister, who the Doctor recounts past experiences with, revealing to [[Amelia Pond|Amy]] that they are friends. They soon learn that they have arrived one month after Churchill called, due to the new TARDIS still being rather innaccurate. When a Luftwaffe squadron approaches [[London]], Churchill takes the Doctor and Amy to the roof in order to show them his latest weapon. As the squadron of [[Wikipedia:Junkers Ju 87|Stukas]] comes into view over [[The Blitz|Blitz]]-torn London, they are shot down by energy weapons with amazing precision by the "Ironsides". Professor [[Edwin Bracewell]], the man in charge of the "Ironside" project, reveals at the Doctor's request a camouflaged, Union Flag-wearing and obedient [[Dalek]].

Although the Doctor says they are alien, the Professor insists that he invented the "Ironsides", and that they are docile, offering to help their human colleagues and serving them cups of [[tea]]. Churchill defends them, thinking of the victories he could have. The Doctor tries to get Amy to tell Churchill about how the Daleks [[The Stolen Earth|invaded Earth]], but Amy has no recollection of any planets in the sky or the Dalek invasion, with no reason why she would have missed them.

The Doctor, intent on proving the Daleks' evil, goes to the Professor, their "creator". The Doctor asks Professor Bracewell how he came up with the idea for the Daleks. To answer this the Professor shows the Doctor several other highly advanced inventions he came up with. When the Daleks and Churchill enter the room, the Doctor repeatedly strikes a Dalek with a large, heavy wrench, trying to make it react. He tells them how he has defeated them, how he is their greatest enemy, and eventually that "I am the Doctor, and you are the Daleks!", before kicking the Dalek across the room. The Dalek recovers and reverts to its true personality, and revealing its true identity. The other Dalek then replays what the Doctor said, before transmitting the "testimony" to the Dalek ship, behind the moon. As two soldiers run in to stop the no-longer-obedient Daleks, they are exterminated. The Professor yells at them to stop, as "I created you!". One of the Daleks blasts his hand, leaving only exposed wiring, revealing Bracewell to be an [[android]]. It retorts "No, ''we'' created ''you!''" and then teleports away with the others.
