Part 2 The Sarah Jane Adventures

-Where is she?

-Who?

-Sarah Jane Smith.

-Never heard of her.

-Get out of my house!

-This isn't your house!

-Out!

I'm going to sort things out, work out how time got changed.

I'm going to find Sarah Jane, and then I'm going to bring her back!

-There's a huge meteor heading for Earth.

-Oh, is there?

Only Sarah Jane can stop it. She's vanished!

Pleased to meet you, Maria, I'm Sarah Jane Smith.

And you're Andrea Yates?

So what if I am? I don't know you, how come you know me?

July 13th 1964.

I've gone back in time.

-Sarah Jane. I will know you...

-She's a loony.

Leave her alone.

Don't be so mean. I'll take you to our teacher.

We're not going back, it's boring.

You're going down the pier? Right now?

It's closed off, but we'll get through.

-But you mustn't!

-What?

-Sarah Jane, you've got to believe me.

-You mustn't go down there!

-Why not?

July 13th 1964.

The accident, it's about to happen.

Look, I was travelling with this thing -

it's too complicated to explain, but I broke free,

and I ended up here cos this was the last place he came to...

cos he was here, in 1964. He must've been, he swapped you two over.

I'm not getting any of this.

-There's nothing to get, she's creepy.

-Just listen to me!

It's not safe! Go back, both of you,

get back on the coach to school, go home!

Told you she was mad, come on, leave her!

-Where'd she go?

-Who cares? What a creep.

She said we shouldn't...

Sarah Jane, don't be so dull!

But she was scared.

It's weird,

-I sort of believed her.

-You'd believe a Triffid's gonna come and get us!

Just follow me, I'll look after you.

IT ROARS

-Where is this?

-You tell me.

-I thought I'd never see you again!

-It's so good to see you.

I was all on my own.

Where are we? Is this a different planet?

I don't think we're anywhere at all.

We're in limbo.

-What does that mean?

-It's nowhere. It's nothing, Maria.

We're lost.

You came here earlier to see her. Our daughter has disappeared.

This isn't funny, Alan. We never had any kids.

But...she's about that high,

and she's got dark hair, like me.

Are you getting a kick out of this? There is no Maria! This is cruel.

Maybe if there had been, we wouldn't have split up.

But it's too late for that now.

-It's this box.

-Oh, you're full of nonsense, you are.

I'm going to go to Andrea's birthday party,

although she's real, Alan, so probably not your type.

You should make this into a utility room.

This was her bedroom.

-Oh, Alan,

-She said something protected her. What if this did?

If we've got a daughter, then where is she?

This is the day you moved in. Andrea came to help, I took the photo.

You, and her, and me. No-one called Maria.

-Maria was telling the truth!

-Oh!

This is why! People say, "He's gorgeous, why did you split?"

This just brings it all flooding back!

What if there's meant to be a Maria...

and someone else?

A woman called Sarah Jane Smith.

Andrea Yates.

Oh, I could never forget.

When I was 13, we were on a school trip. We went on to the pier.

She fell and there was nothing I could do.

I always thought,

that could have been me.

But now she's alive,

-like she's always been alive.

-What sort of woman is she?

Bit full on, likes a party.

Yeah, that sounds like her.

So...

in the parallel world,

-you died and she lived.

-It's not a parallel world.

It's our timeline, changed.

But without you, that meteor must still be on its way,

it's gonna smash into the Earth.

If I'm not there... that means the end of the world.

I was the only one that knew about it. I got protected, somehow,

by that box.

The Verron soothsayer must have known.

He said, "Give it to the person you trust most."

It linked us somehow, I called out to you.

But I dropped it,

I lost it, that little alien thing came along and I ran.

-Did he do all this?

-No. That alien, he's called a Graske.

There was some Graske activity on Earth a couple of years back,

but this isn't their style at all.

-What do you mean?

-This is much more powerful.

Some other creature must be using the Graske, as a slave.

GHOSTLY VOICE: Sarah Jane.

Who's that?

-Sarah Jane.

-I'm being summoned.

-Maria, you stay here.

-Don't leave me on my own!

I'll come back. I promise. I'd never leave you, Maria, never.

Just wait.

Sarah Jane.

-Thank you for coming.

-Thanks for inviting us.

Go and find a drink. Hello, Joan, how are you, love?

Go and find a drink, Den, lovely to see you.

DISEMBODIED VOICES

I take it this is your domain.

Who are you?

Nobody. I am nothing.

Any chance you could be a bit less cryptic?

It's hard for me to make you understand.

Ephemeral minds are so limited.

Behold...

As you can see, I have no self.

-I exist only to bring disorder. That is my purpose.

-But why?

Chaos is my blood and air and food.

You are the key to that chaos.

I have been waiting, searching through time

for just the right person at just the right moment.

I took you to aid the coming of darkness.

Where's Luke? Where is my son?

The Bane never came to Earth in the timeline that I have created.

Luke Smith never existed.

People who don't exist end up here.

In this Nowhere Land. So where is he?

I demand to see my son!

He is lost, in the forgotten places, even further out than you.

But if I died, all those years ago...

Never mind the Bane, what about the Slitheen?

And the Gorgons? And the Patriarchs of the Tin Vagabond,

I stopped them from taking over Earth. What happened to them?

I turned them away. All I need is the meteor.

Why, what's so special about it?

Those other species, they invade for profit, power, revenge.

The meteor is pure chaos.

The destruction of the Earth, for no reason at all.

Just blind chance.

This is food, for me.

You'll destroy all life on Earth,

and you don't even care?

I care about you.

You are so wonderful, Sarah Jane Smith.

Your life was so important... and I found

the right moment to snuff it out,

with the help of Andrea Yates.

-Andrea was my friend.

-She wished to save her own life.

I could only remove you with her consent.

She agreed?

I must go now.

-Events are moving towards their end...

-No!

-Don't go.

-I will return when the Earth is no more.

And I will explore your potential further.

In particular,

your memories of this... 'Doctor'.

You leave him alone!

I can use you to find him.

Imagine if the Doctor had never existed.

What chaos there would be, across the stars...

Don't you dare!

Don't you dare! Don't you dare!

Oh, that's lovely. Thank your mum, I'm sorry she couldn't make it.

Right, I'll be off then.

No, no, stick around. Here, have a bit of cake.

OK, no complaints from me!

Well, look who's here!

Hello love, welcome, welcome.

Oh, Alan, still not found anyone? He is mine.

More gorgeous every day.

If I was only a few years younger...

You can have him!

What's the matter, Alan, cat got your tongue?

You could say that.

Oh, Clyde don't put that modern stuff on, let it play.

This stuff's ancient.

Not to me.

It's like yesterday.

Oh, the 60s. That was my time.

I was just a kid, back then...

-You OK?

-I heard what it said.

And the meteor's coming.

We can't do anything.

There must be something. There's always something.

-My dad.

-What can he do? He didn't remember me...

Now you've been taken out of time, he won't remember you, either.

You what?

Danny, are you serious?

All right, I'll check it out...

LAUGHTER

Oh, Clyde, not again.

It's my mate. He said there's something big on the news.

You kids and your TV, it's meant to be a party!

I won't be a minute.

'The huge meteor, which was sighted at two fifteen this afternoon,

'is heading towards Earth at colossal speed, but scientists are stressing

'that the situation is being monitored, no need to panic.'

That's what Danny said! A huge rock heading for Earth,

-like in 'Armageddon'.

-A meteor... It's all true.

What, is it gonna hit us?

Nah, Danny said it'll fly past, no worries.

Nothing's gonna spoil my birthday! We need more glasses...

-I'll give you a hand.

-Ooh, Andrea, now's your chance.

Well, I'll bring him back... if he's good.

THEY LAUGH

Now, I've got some paper cups somewhere.

Saves wear and tear. Where did I put them?

What does the name Maria mean to you?

Er? Ooh, I don't know.

Ave Maria. Maria Callas.

Maria who works down the petrol station, which Maria?

-My daughter, Maria. Where is she?

-I don't know what you mean.

-You do.

You remember and so do I, and I'm gonna get her back!

-You mustn't, please.

-It's you. You're the centre of it all.

I know about the accident, I know about Sarah Jane.

What are you talking about?

You came over the road, got me out of the way and she was gone!

I asked you to help me with my banner... Where did you get that?

What have you done to her?

The whole world's forgotten her. It's your word against mine.

But I haven't forgotten. This box, it protected Maria,

and now it's protected me.

I was gonna forget.

He promised me.

One night's sleep and I'd have forgotten her.

Who? Who promised you? Come on, tell me! Where is she?

-You'd never believe me.

-I think I would. Andrea, please.

Tell me.

It was years ago...

I was thirteen...

I thought I was so grown-up...

knew it all. Indestructible, that's what I was.

And I had this friend...

Oh, Alan, I'm so sorry.

I had this friend called Sarah Jane Smith.

If I've come to the seaside, I wanna see the flamin' sea!

We're due back at the bus, Jeffers'll skin us.

THEY LAUGH

We larked about for a bit

then I went to the edge...

There was nothing there.

Andrea!

Andrea!

Andrea!

Andrea, grab my hand.

Grab my hand!

Grab my hand, come on Andrea, grab my hand.

Come on, come on, grab my hand!

'I tried and tried, but I couldn't hold on.'

Andrea, come on, hold my hand!

And then I heard the voice.

'Andrea. You don't have to die.

'I can save you, Somebody has to fall, it doesn't have to be you.

'You only have to agree.'

Help! Help!

'I need your answer or I can't help.

'Let her die in your place.'

Yes! Yes!

-Andrea, help me!

-What happened?

Sarah Jane... Sarah, take my hand take my hand!

Sarah, take my hand!

SARAH SCREAMS

She was just a kid.

My gift to you, Andrea.

Same as yours.

You will forget, so that you will live a full life.

But waking or sleeping, I will always be with you, Andrea Yates.

Always...

I remembered the accident...

but he made me forget everything else.

I never knew where I got this.

But somehow I could never throw it away.

When Maria came over this morning shouting about Sarah Jane...

it all came back. The voice, the deal I did...

Sacrificing a friend to save your own life.

I was thirteen, I was terrified...

D'you know what it's like?

To know you're gonna die?

To feel the end of everything closing in on you?

Why am I even asking?

-I'm the only person alive who could possibly know.

-She was your friend!

Yes, and I loved her.

I did, don't look at me like that.

Oh, she was funny,

I used to crack up, the things she said.

Clever, not swotty.

In class, she didn't even have to try.

Alan, I had to do it.

I had to survive.

The minute you remembered, you did it again. To Maria!

If it didn't have this box, I'd have forgotten my own daughter.

I had to send her away.

What could Maria do to you?

She made me remember.

She made me face what I had done.

ANDREA SOBS

What do you want me to do, Andrea?

And yeah, now I've done it again.

Sent your daughter away.

And how can I face that?

I can send him away too, but you must agree.

I agree!

-I agree!

-Agree to what?

I'm so sorry...

'The meteor is on collision course with Britain, but the RAF

'has released a statement saying they are confident it can be shot down

'and missiles are already being prepared.'

This is amazing...

Oh, let the army deal with it, it's what they get paid for.

Wonder what's keeping Alan.

CREATURE GROWLS

Well, that's just ridiculous.

I'm telling you, my ex-husband and a dwarf in a suit. I've seen it all.

Shut up and listen!

'The meteor is now approximately ten minutes from impact, but...

'hold on, we have some breaking news.

'I'm being told...

'It's been confirmed.

'I'm sorry.

'The missile strike has failed...'

It's gonna hit us!

It's gonna blow up the Earth!

-Set me free!

-Show me how to get my daughter back here. Now!

It's a joke, it must be a joke.

DISTANT RUMBLING

Can you hear it? That's it!

But it can't be.

Why is this happening now?

There it is!

They'll find a way to deal with it.

That's real, though. that's real. There's no way of stopping it!

Maria said, Sarah Jane can stop the meteor...

The Snare will retrieve her...

Then, you set me free!

Maria! Maria!

-Maria?

-Maria!

Where's Maria? How could I forget Maria?

-Dad, you genius!

-No, no, no, listen...

The meteor, you were right, it's heading straight for us...

-We can stop it, but we need Sarah Jane.

-I don't remember Sarah Jane.

Dad, You remembered me when I disappeared, yeah?

I remember Sarah Jane, and she's the only person who can save us!

How? She's just a normal woman, isn't she?

She's a lot more than that! You must help me. We can get her back.

Whatever you did with that thing, do it again!

Nothing... nothing.

I got put back here,

where I belong, so she'll be where she belongs!

Her attic!

Freedom!

Please, you saved me once before, you can do it again...

Please!

EERIE WHISTLING

No... Not you.

Mum!

It's too late, sweetheart, it's too late for all of us. I'm sorry..

-All the times I let you down, I'm so sorry...

-Maria!

-Not now!

Andrea Yates.

It's you. All grown up...

Well, look at you.

Scrubbed up well.

Always did look younger than you were.

But you can't be here,

not while I'm here, you can't come back!

Sarah Jane!

That's her?

She's only in the mirror, it didn't work.

I can't get back while Andrea's still here.

And I must get back to save Luke. To save the world!

-But what do we do?!

-There is a way.

It's why the creature got rid of Maria.

She might have persuaded you to go back on your deal.

This whole thing depends upon your agreement to my death,

all those years ago.

If you break off the deal, Sarah Jane comes back!

All you have to do is pull out of it, say no!

-I can't!

-The meteor will hit! Is that what you want?

I'm sorry, Andrea, but you were meant to die.

Meant? Who says I'm 'meant' to die?

I was so young, I had so much to do,

and I did it, look at me, I lived, every single moment.

-Cos I knew what it was worth.

-So did I!

And you're the chosen one, the golden girl?

Oh, nobody was chosen.

It was stupid and pointless, that day, but this is worse!

That thing twisted it, he used you!

So I die, at thirteen.

And my son gets a chance to live.

He's lost out there, Andrea, somewhere terrible

and I am begging you. Please save him.

If I do...

what happens to my life? All the things I did as I grew up...

they get scrubbed out?

I get forgotten.

No, you were never forgotten, never.

What I saw that day,

it changed me forever.

I saw how precious life is.

And it made me fight to defend it, across all these years.

Because of you, Andrea.

It was all because of you.

My best friend.

EERIE ROAR

Is that him? The Trickster?

Dad, no! Don't go near him.

Andrea Yates. They want to kill you all over again.

Remember your bargain with me.

You tricked me!

You used a child.

And now you're destroying the Earth!

Chaos is good.

Well, I say, no.

If there's one thing I can do with my life,

I can put a stop to you, for good.

I've changed my mind!

I'm taking the deal back!

Then you will die.

I've been dead for forty years.

It's been a good life.

It's my birthday.

Bye, Sarah Jane. I'm going now.

And you're free!

Andrea! Grab my hand, grab my hand!

Remember me.

ANDREA SCREAMS No!

I'm back.

We're back, all of us!

Back where we belong!

That felt like a spatio-temporal shift

caused by extra-quantum forces.

-In English?

-Oh, it's all back to normal!

RUMBLING

-The meteor!

-It's still coming!

-Sarah Jane, do something!

-Thirty seconds to impact.

Mr Smith, I need you!

-Emergency measures required.

-I know! Luke, steady the magnetic buffer.

-Done!

-Come on!

Right, Mr Smith. Activate.

She did it!

She did it!

Oh, like Bobby Sue had anything to do with that.

You'll be telling me she invented the zip fastener next.

-Meteor K67 has been deflected.

-We did it!

Never mind that... you're back!

-Was I away?

-And you are never, ever, ever, ever going away again!

-What just happened?

-A friend of mine just saved the world.

Her name was Andrea Yates.

Oh, ho, that was brilliant, we did it! You should've seen it!

What's he doing here?

Right. Aliens.

Monsters. Supercomputers. Is anybody going to tell me what's going on?

Come on. I need some answers.

Who's going first?

It's been five months... since we saw Ashley.

Mr Smith, I need you, more than ever.

I told you time again, there's something wrong with that woman.

Ashley, Oh, my God!

-I wish I had all the answers.

-No!

We're part of something much bigger than living on Bannerman Road.

It seems you've got powerful friends, Miss Smith.

I told you when we met. My life is dangerous.

This is serious stuff, Maria. Crazy, but serious.

Dad says we're moving!

He says I can't have anything to do with you any more.

Sometimes it's the only way to survive.
