Investigation 4

[after_thesky]

[Phone, filtered from drones etc.]

Has anyone been watching the behaviour of the rest of the alleged "Smith" family? This doesn't fit the drone script, and it can't have been in their plan. If we're right about Lucy, she might tip her hand.

Sarah! What are you doing here?

[after_thesky]

[Now there' a voice she wasn't expecting]

Doctor? I think the question may be what are you doing here?

[noble_right]

I'm not the Doctor - not exactly, anyway, I'm the other one. Do you remember, from the thing with the Daleks? I go by Dexter now. And I've no clue what I'm doing here, actually, I only turned up a few weeks ago.

[after_thesky]

Oh, yes, I remember that. I've been here for over half a year now and I'm still not sure what I'm doing here.

[noble_right]

I've been trying to think of something, but I still haven't figured out how it works in the first place.

[after_thesky]

It's a peculiar problem. Nothing I have has been able to pick up anything unusual about the town... except my eyes, of course.

[noble_right]

Oh, so you've gotten your stuff back? Lucky you, I've been having to make due with what I can scrounge up.

[after_thesky]

The town occasionally returns items after major events. The sonic lipstick is probably the most useful. I have the watch, but it hasn't been able to detect anything at all. Last time, it was a picture of Luke.

[noble_right]

You're better armed now than I am even back home, I'm afraid. I haven't been able to get my hands on the right supplies for a sonic of my own.

[It's a partial truth - he might be able to if he tried hard enough, but he can't quite remember how to do it, either.]

But the thing with the Smiths, that did seem significant. I take it that was odd even by Mayfield standards?

[after_thesky]

I'm sure your Torchwood will turn something up sooner or later, if it's anything like on our side.

Most of the time, the Smiths follow the same strict script the drones do. Particularly the mother.

[noble_right]

But then she just... changed somehow? I've heard rather scattered things about her having some other identity, being younger than she seemed, that sort of thing.
