Date unknown, I'm afraid. Doctor Who - Green Icky Space Goo aka The Butler Did It featuring the fourth Doctor and Leela Starring: Bozzie as CommOffr, Arch, Commander, Engner Haem as Doc4 Janet as Leela Telson as Chemist --------------------------------------------------------------------------- < Title music > ::The TARDIS materializes in a dark hallway:: ::Door opens; Doc4 and Leela step out:: * Doc4 pulls out a yo-yo Hmmm. *flicks the yo-yo* We're on a spaceship. Doctor - How can you play with toys at a time like this - and where are we? ::Lights flicker:: I don't know, Leela...let's see if we can't find the bridge.. The bridge? Yes. The bridge, the place where they run the ship. *looks around* That way. ::Doc4 and Leela walk down the hallway:: Wonder what's in this door? Look at this Doctor *opens doorway too see what is there* What? I wonder what is in here? Well, don't just stand there gawking. Come on. * Doc4 goes through the doorway * Leela follows Looks like crew quarters. What was that noise? I don't think this ship is structurally sound. Or that could have been us entering an atmosphere. * Doc4 flicks the yo-yo again The gravity has increased. * Doc4 goes back out the door and strides down the hall *BLEEP* Hello, Deap Space 5? Do you read me? Over.... *BLEEP* Leela, did you hear something? Yes, it was over there - behind that chest..... * Doc4 moves the chest, revealing a small comm unit * Doc4 flicks the buttons Doctor - what IS that? If it's what I think it is, it's a comm unit. +com+ Hello...this is the Doctor... Oh jeez, you had us scared for a second there.... You know, with the new warp drive they've got it gets really scarey what these ships put you through. +com+ Yes...I'm sure it does. Where are you? Esspecially since a lot of this is really new and some of its still experimental How did that voice get in there? * Doc4 chuckles This machine can relay my voice to him, and vice-versa. This is Space Colony 3 theta +com+ Ah, I see. Is that where we're headed? well, I should hope so. Especially with the discoveries we've found Stand back doctor - I will destroy the demon in the.... the..... What did you say it was? In the comm unit...oh! No, Leela, put that away. It's not a demon. It's lucky these new drives were deregistered off the highly dangerous list to get you here in time But doctor - voices are coming form it. It's only a machine, Leela. Don't you remember what I told you about magic and science? I'll try to remember, doctor... There's a good girl, Leela. Would you like to try it? No, I don't think so.... It won't bite. Here, I'll flip the switch and you can say something. No doctor - I don't think I want to do that... +com+ Our instruments are damaged...would you mind telling us our ETA? <85> 85? wazzat? =) Your ETA should be 278 minutes especially what could be the first new life form to be discovered outside of our earth, at least the remains Well, Ill get the archaelogist here, just a sec... Yes, as you know, there were three caves and caverns discovered in the southern most region of the area where our base is located. +com+ Erm...yes, the caves. Of course. Tell me about this life form you discovered. yes of course.... well, they are, or rather wre a religious lot * Doc4 listens intently statues surround the cave site +com+ Statues? How interesting... their were also pots and pans filled with a mysterious green liquid +com+ Have you analyzed it? However, all the things in the caves measure about several thousands years old and it appears as if some catastrophe, natural or not, drove them off the planet or this area of it at least The Liquid? just a sec * Doc4 hmmms Why are you humming doctor? Is it some spell? Yes, but the liquid does appear to contain some elements which are not naturally occuring on this planet. This is very interesting, Leela. What is it? I don't know, Leela. You might just be right this time. +com+ Has anyone come in contact with the liquid? One of our party spilled some on himself when we first arrived... +com+ Has he displayed any unusual signs? ...he was hospitalised with a fever...he is an a coma now and has been for some time. Leela, we have to get there as soon as possible. Let's see if we can't speed up the ship... +com+ We're heading for the bridge. Hopefully we'll be there soon. What shall I do, doctor. * Doc4 cuts off the machine Come on, Leela, let's go. I'll just push this...... Push what? *** the ship shudders..... *** Oh dear... ::270 minutes passes:: I can't believe we never found the bridge. ::Doc4 and Leela stand behind the airlock:: ::The ship shudders one last time and is still as it hits the surface:: ::the airlock opens:: ***It's a wasteland type of planet*** ***With some mountains here and there, there are dust storms everywhere*** * Doc4 blinks as dust is blown into his eyes when he steps out of the airlock * Doc4 passes a scarf end to Leela Here, put this over your mouth and nose. Why am I covering my mouth, docotr? The dust. It'll get into your windpipe. Is that a bad thing? Yes, Leela...it could obstruct your breathing. Wouldn't want that. Hello, welcome! You must be..... * Doc4 looks at the Commander The Doctor. And this is my friend, Leela. Well, I had hope Earth central would have chosen someone a little more appropriate for the job... Appropriate? Of course I'm appropriate! Show me this life form of yours. [Telson leaves] Well, we havent actually got any, only the remains of the civilizations Remnants are good enough. Yes. My name is Barton, Im the archaologist called in You can tell a lot from a fossil. umm yes.... right this way... but surely you want to rest and freshen up, no? Thank you, Barton, but we're well-rested. Our top priority right now is this life form. [Janet has to leave; quick write-out commences!] ::Leela is suddenly eaten by something that comes out of the ground:: umm oh dear, dont touch that green stuff! Yes, that green stuff that just came out of the ground! That's what did the other guy in, he's still in a coma oh dear, she touched it. [Janet leaves] Yes... +com+ Doctor Emerson, we have a medical emergincy! [Bozz and Haem decide to keep going] ok here freshen up.... ***lights flicker*** Oh dear! What's causing the lights to flicker? * Doc4 strides around the room and looks at everything Something must be wrong with the main power supply, Comm officer, go check it ::Comm off leaves to don space suit:: Its located a mile away from the base as it is very unstable I think you need to get all of that green liquid out of the base. Yes, of course, we'll do it at once Shall I go with you, Mr Comm Officer? umm no, we Need you to check out hats happening All right, then let's go have a look at...oh... ::An Explosion is heard:: * Doc4 races towards the source of the explosion Dear GOD!!!!! Its the power source!!! (you cant, its outside =)) * Doc4 runs into a wall Ouch...something here is affecting me... +com+ Comm offr, do you read me??? He must have been caught in it. I'll go and turn the auxiluary supply Did you detect any unusual readings from the power source? Anything that would indicate it was about to explode? Umm no, everything is as it sould have been (reading output) everythiong was stable. I need to see these caves, then. I would almost swear nothing could have gone wrong... but it did Yes, of course. I'm afraid, that at the moment, I have to run some tests, and no one else can go with you... I'll show you to the shuttle thingie to get you to the caves There's something very wrong here...especially as I don't seem to be concerned that Leela's dead. shes not, only ill Oh, good. Whatever it is must be affecting my vision, as well. * Arch shows the Doc to the shuttle craft bay * Doc4 wanders around to where they house the shuttle thingies it's simple enough, the computer is programed to carry you to the base and return...no problem really Good. The state I'm in, I don't trust myself to fly one of these. you dont fly them, you ride them , like cars =) * Doc4 climbs in a shuttle the com can be used if you need help...oh wait * Doc4 flicks the com experimentally. I forgot to tell you...the whole plce is sealed tight How do I get in? you'll need to be sterilized * Doc4 gets back out of the shuttlecar and leave all equitment behind so nothing will be disturbed, and wear a suit Does that include jelly babies? yes, Im afraid so. * Doc4 sighs and eats the bag of jelly babies in one gulp Dont worry, there re equipment inside, though Do you have a spare warehouse? ummm yes, why? * Doc4 starts emptying out his pockets > They're dimensionally transcendental, that's why. ahh, ok =) [Bozz and Haem decide to wrap this one up quickly, as there are only two people left playing; time for a quick, short-notice ending] Oh dear, the caves seem to have exploded. The butler did it all =) The butler! I knew it was him. he wanted to finance his working as an evil mad sci by stealing all the stuff in the caves as it is the first life form new Ha ha, Doctor! I was working with the butler and the doctor...and you thought I was stupid! it would get him a lot of money but what he didnt know hurt him? was that the archeoplgist made it all up (and it worked cause he changed the equiment to put out false output) He did it to keep the space program working cause it would have made the experimental stuff work and would have made his small success here so small that he would have had to retire poor; and of course, the Dr emailed someone on earth to destroy the people on the ship I bet the archaeologist was married to the chemist's one-time girlfriend who was actually the butler's sister, too! yup, probably =) ::And so, once again, the commander of the colony in space solves the mystery. The Doctor collects the traitorous Leela and departs for other places:: *applause* ;> heheh THE END
