Emily Rutherford

Emily Rutherford was a human living in the Earth Empire.

She had an IQ of 192. She was in love with Tom Charrington, whose IQ was 137. Since their IQs were more than fifty points apart, regulations would not allow them work permits or social services, nor allow any children that they might have to go to school.

They decided it was best not to continue their relationship under such conditions. Separation Day Incorporated sent them to say their goodbyes in a reproduction of the library where they first met.

However, their surroundings started to darken and disintegrate. The Third Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith arrived in the TARDIS. The Doctor told Emily and Tom that if they did not stay together, the events that resulted from that decision would lead to the destruction of the universe, which what was happening around them was foreshadowing.

Emily and Tom chose to stay together and everything returned to normal. (PROSE: Separation Day)
