There's trouble ahead for the Doctor and Donna in 22nd-century London...

Summary
At the New New Scotland Yard, police are dealing with fanatics firing their way out of the HQ. One of the group, a female, is knocked out by the arrival of the TARDIS. The Doctor uses his psychic paper to identify himself to the police as Detective Inspector John Smith with Sergeant Donna Noble from Moon Division.

The gang flee in a waiting car that explodes on lift-off. The Doctor is convinced their death was no accident. Inside New New Scotland Yard, the captured escapee, Laura Efston, is unaware of her recent actions. One minute she was working in personnel, the next waking up upside.

When the Doctor attempts to investigate using his sonic screwdriver on the discs on the back of everyone's hand — the Doctor describes them as 22nd century mobile phones — all of the officers' eyes spark and they turn on the Doctor and Donna. Together they all chant, "The Zenith will not be denied!"
