In the evac tower, the Doctors work to get the power back on. They finish each other's sentences and weird Amy out. She asks them to cut it out. Silly girl! It's the best thing about this episode! She asks if the TARDIS will be damaged by the acid. "Nah, she's a tough old thing," one Doctor says. "Tough, old, sexy," corrects the other. "Tough, dependable, sexy," adds the first. They agree with big smiles, as Amy looks on, disturbed. She debates with them about whether or not they can both really be the Doctor. They point out that they both have 900 years of memories, experience and very cool bow ties. Amy's still not convinced. As a small concession, one Doctor allows that the other Doctor has different shoes because of his run-in with the acid puddle. "That satisfy you, Pond?" Dr. Black Shoes asks with a smile. "Don't call me Pond, please," Amy huffs. The Doctors frown at her and point out that she has "more affection" for Brown Shoes. She tries to smooth things over by telling him that being almost the Doctor is still impressive, but he's upset. It's like being no Doctor at all, he says. "You might as well call me Smith! John Smith!" Brown Shoes gets the power on and the lights go up. Cleaves makes for the computer, Amy hot on her heels. They can't find Rory on the scanner.
In another part of the monastery, the gangers have found a computer setup of their own. Ganger Jimmy's surprised the power's back up. "Well, boys, I don't know much," ganger Cleaves says, "but I know my own minds." She predicts her other self will be trying to contact the mainland. Sure enough, when she flips a switch she can hear the original Cleaves trying to reach the army. After some initial static due to the storm, she gets a response. "Request immediate evacuation," she says. "We're under attack. The storm's affected our gangers, they're running amok!" I'd like to run amok someday. It sounds fun, doesn't it? The guy on the other end is like, "Say whaaat?" When Cleaves says the gangers need to be wiped out, the Doctors give each other worried looks. She gives the guy the pickup location and tells him she's going to give him a codeword. She types it in so that the gangers can't hear her. In the other computer room, ganger Cleaves is impressed. "See how smart I am? That's why I'm paid the big bucks." Well, you weren't smart enough to prevent this mess, but whatever. She and the other gangers overhear the plan for their impending doom. "Jennifer's right," Cleaves says. "We're gonna have to fight if we want to survive." She doesn't sound thrilled at the prospect.
