The Doctor is forced to call Rose to arrange a meet and swap at the Dockyards , Doll for the Doctor . At the Docks , with his Horsegoon s wearing the strongarms , Lipps double crosses Don Corpulone . He believes he can claim the Doctor ' s bounty money and he has the strongarms . However , Don Corpulone has kept the remote control . The Horsegoons are turned on Lipps himself . Holding all the cards Don Corpulone calls for Doll and the Bird to be handed over . From their hiding place , the Doctor , Rose and Doll watch as Don Corpulone and his sons ' heads detach themselves from their bodies . They turn around to see Doll ' s head has also become detached . One thing Doll ' s family does agree on is that if anyone learns their secret , which the Doctor and Rose just have , they must die . . . Don ' t Lose Your Head . The Doctor uses his sonic screwdriver to scramble the signal between Doll ' s head and her body , which runs off . In the confusion , a shot destroys the strongarms ' remote control . The Horsegoons go crazy . The shot from the detective robot who survived the early assault , thanks to his duralinium body , leads the Doctor , Rose and Dolls head to safety . Doll explains that her family were grown by a crazy scientist who grew talking heads as company for the sad and old . The heads were clever . When the scientist ' s back was turned , they ' ran ' away to start a new life . The Doctor is still curious about the Bird that Don Corpulone desperately wants back . He asks the detective robot to open its chest hatch . Inside is a Glitterbird egg from a rare robot species whose droppings are studded with diamonds , a nest egg for Doll ! Doll turns on the Doctor and Rose . She orders the robot to kill them both . The Doctor persuades the detective robot that his first loyalty is to other robots and to protect the Glitterbird . The Detective Robot struggles with his programming , but the Doctor recognises it as an Acme Industries android . He calls out the programming over - ride code ( 5678 / 2345 Alpha Delta Alpha ) . As Doll ' s re - assembled family catch up with them , the Detective robot hands the egg to the Doctor to protect and launches himself at the Corpulone brothers , sending them over the edge of a roof . Reunited with her father , and seeing herself as the next Head of Family , Doll has proven herself a true Corpulone to her Father . Together they race after the Doctor ( with the egg ) and Rose . Using his sonic screwdriver , the Doctor hot - wires a space - car . Placing the egg a few feet away from the backburner , he fires it up . The intense heat hatches the egg and the Glitterbird flies off , out of Corpulone ' s reach . The Detective Robot returns with reinforcement and a renewed enthusiasm for law enforcement . The Corpulone family ' s heads are jarred and taken away .
