Later...

The Oval Office was strewn with large street maps and everyone seemed to be looking at one.

"Why Florida?" Canton enquired.

"That's where NASA is." Sky responded as he passed them while looking over a map of Florida.

The Doctor nodded at Sky in agreement before turning his attention to Canton. "She mentioned a space man. NASA's where the space men live. Also. . .there's another lead I'm following."

"Space Man?" Lexi asked, whispering to River.

"Wait." Amy said, also whispering to River. "Like the one we saw at the lake?"

"Maybe." River whispered back.

"Probably." Jupiter whispered, taking a seat next to Lexi.

Lexi bit her lip in thought, glancing behind her and seeing that Amy had gotten up and was staring aimlessly out of the open doorway. She saw Rory walked in front of her.

"I remember." Amy whispered.

"Amy?" Rory asked. "What do you remember.

Rory shifted on his feet a little, moving a bit to the side from where he had stood directly in front of Amy.

"I don't know, I just..." Amy trailed off, holding a hand to her stomach.

"Amy?" Lexi asked, concerned, tilting her head as she looked at Amy from where she sat on the couch next to Jupiter.

"What's wrong?" Rory asked Amy a bit worriedly.

"Amy?" River asked, also concerned.

"You alright?" The Doctor also asked.

"Yeah, no, I'm fine..." Amy said, shaking her head. "Feeling a bit sick." She then headed for the door. "Excuse me, is there a toilet, or something?"

"Sorry, ma'am, during this procedure, you must remain within the Oval Office." Agent Peterson told her.

"Shut up and take her to the restroom." Canton told him.

Peterson then just nodded to the other agent.

"This way, ma'am." The agent gestured for her to follow.

"Thanks." Amy replied, walking out of the room, the agent with her.

Rory moved to follow, but Agent Peterson put a hand on his chest to stop him.

"Your five minutes are up." Canton told the Doctor.

"Yeah, and where's my fez?" Was the only thing he responded with.

Lexi let out a quiet and amused huff at that before turning back to look at the map that was laid out on the coffee table.

"So, Jupiter..." Lexi started quietly. "What's it like being a time-hopper?"

Jupiter let out a soft chuckle as she looked over the map with Lexi.

"Well, it's not always easy, I'll tell you that much." Jupiter told her, glancing over at Sky as he and the Doctor were looking over a map together. She then turned back her attention to the map she was looking at with Lexi. "There are some nights that I stay awake and wonder what my life would be like if my parents weren't who they were. They're the whole reason Sky and I do what we do. Sky will tell you the same. It's not all that bad though. I mean, it's not that pleasant not being able to see our parents all the time, but when we do, it's always an adventure. . .God, there was this one time where we had to escape these evil snowmen and ice woman in Victorian London, all at Christmas time, might I add."
