The Doctor, the Glorious, the Widow and the Wardrobe [Part 2]

Inside, House, Children's room, Night...

The children were lying in the hammocks, Cyril having a hard time falling asleep.

"Lily!" Cyril whispered loudly. "Lily, can you sleep? Lily!"

"Shut up!" She whispered back harshly.

"What do you think that present is?" He asked, wondering. "We could just sneak down and have a look."

"Go to sleep!" She tried to tell him, rolling over as she tried to go to sleep herself.

Inside, House, Master bedroom...

Madge was holding a telegram about Reg as she, too, tried to sleep.

Inside, TARDIS, The Doctor and Lexi's bedroom...

Lexi sat on the edge of the bed as she stared down at the little wrapped box she planned to give the Doctor for Christmas.

Inside, House, Hall...

Lily snuck out of her and Cyril's room as he was still sleeping.

She started down the stairs until she heard a buzzing noise (the sonic). She then turned back and headed up the stairs to the attic, just missing Cyril as he snuck out of the room.

Inside, House, Attic...

Lily was now creeping down the hall to the room where the sound was coming from.

Inside, House, Hall...

Cyril headed downstairs to the main sitting room and saw that the present was glowing like he had seen earlier.

Inside, TARDIS, The Doctor and Lexi's bedroom...

Lexi clutched her small present for the Doctor as she stood up from their bed, going to the bedroom door.

Inside, House, Attic...

Lily entered the room, seeing that the Doctor was sitting at a desk working on something as the TARDIS was in the center of the room.

"You were lying about the panthers." Lily noted as she came farther into the room.

"Famous last words." The Doctor looked up, giving her a small smile.

"Why have you got a phone box in your room?" She questioned.

"It's not a phone box, it's my... wardrobe." He told her. "I've just painted it to look like a phone box."

"What are you doing?"

"Rewiring."

"Why would you rewire a wardrobe?" She asked incredulously.

"Have you seen the way I dress?" He responded, making her smile slightly.

"Who are you?" She asked after a moment, giving him a look. "Really, who are you?"

A light then blinked on what the Doctor was working on, making him concerned before he looked to Lily. "Your brother, where is he?"

Inside, House, Sitting room...

Cyril untied the ribbon around the glowing present before then kneeling down and opening the box, a bright light shining through as a breeze carried snowflakes in.

Cyril looked upstairs before crawling into the box, pausing when he saw a winter forest.

He then backed up and sat on the floor, still looking at the box.
