Doctor Who – Designated Survivor – Emily and the Doctor
It was the end of a busy day in the White House, when Emily Rhodes heard a sound that she thought she would never hear again. ‘No! Not now!” she thought. She didn’t want to have to explain the Doctor to the President. She walked through the halls in the direction the sound came from. Then she saw it, or rather her. “Aren’t you a sight for tired eyes?” she asked as she walked up to the blue box.

“Emily?” She turned and saw Seth Wright, the Press Secretary. “Do you know what this is?”

“Um, yes,” she answered as she grabbed the key she had kept since college. Then on impulse, she turned and unlocked the door.


The interior was different to how she remembered it. “Doctor?”

“Emily Rhodes?” a Scottish voice asked from behind the console.

‘Regenerated, figures!’ Emily thought. “Yes,” she answered, at a loss for words.

The Doctor stepped out from behind the console. “You’ve done well for yourself. White House Chief of Staff. I knew you would achieve things in Washington.”

Emily looked at the Doctor. “You look old, Doctor,” she said, remembering the two brown haired incarnations she had travelled with through her College years.

The Doctor was about to say something, but was interrupted by Seth stepping into the Console Room.

“Wait! How can this box be bigger on the inside?”

“It’s a long story, Seth,” Emily answered. “However. A question must be asked. Why are you here?”

“Because President Kirkman is in danger!” the Doctor answered.
