The Last Stand

**The Last Stand** is the fifth and final episode of *Lego Doctor Who Adventures*.

## Synopsis

No more running, no more aimless adventures. It's time for the Doctor to face his greatest enemy: His past.

## Plot

Near at the end of the Time War, as retaliation for the Dalek's forthcoming attack to Gallifrey, the Doctor proposes the Time Lords to steal and utilize the Moment, a weapon of the Daleks, but they refuse to trust him and counter with their plans to construct the arc, requiring the Earth's core to finalize the power source. The Doctor asserts against using Earth, coercing the Time Lords to comply and use another planet as a temporary power source. Time Lord leader, Rassilon, schemes to resume their plans by assuring the Doctor's demise, if he isn't otherwise killed already.

In 2020 ad, the Master surprisingly contacts the Doctor via physic link to meet up in 55 ad. When the Doctor arrives, it is revealed that the Master's presence was staged before a Silence knocks him unconscious. The Doctor gets apprehended by the Time Lords at the nearly finished arc. Rassilon explains that the citizens evacuated to escape from the time lock, yearning to resume their plans to use Earth to create a new empire and to kill the Doctor as retribution for the destruction of Gallifrey.

A mysterious figure, Alysis, rescues and joins the Doctor, aiding his escape. The Doctor also recruits the ninja, Captain Jack Harkness, and a fleet. The Doctor later explores his wardrobe and dons a new top. Alysis reveals the remaining Time Lords' loyalty to Rassilon and his alliance with the Daleks. The fleet provides the Doctor with an emblematic staff capable of bisecting a Dalek.

The Time Lords and Daleks arrive with the arc, clashing against the Doctor's alliance. The fleet intercepts the arc and brings the shields down, allowing themselves to open fire. This forces the Daleks to retreat as Alysis shoots Rassilion, blowing up the arc.

The resulted explosion is unleashed as an unstable planet core that can consume galaxies. To contain the explosion, the Doctor releases the Eye of Harmony within by piloting the TARDIS inside but dies willingly. At the Doctor's memorial service, Jack converse with the ninja, who refuses to confide his clandestine identity and past, which Jack sees as a trait the Doctor had. The ninja says, "It's nice to meet you again, Jack" and departs, leaving Jack bemused.

Awakening, the Doctor is shocked to be alive, discovering to be in another dimension, where he meets his counterpart. The Doctor's counterpart reluctantly offers him a way back to his dimension by firing him through the tear before it closes, only at a small chance. The Doctor opens up on his misgivings, asking his counterpart if traveling is worth it in spite of causing events that endangered others requiring his intervention, to which he answers yes, reassuring him that he would've intervene regardless of the cause as the people he saved outweigh his loss and that the excitement on facing danger is worth experiencing. The Doctor accepts his counterpart's offer which now denotes returning his TARDIS as well, at the cost of, if survived under the unlikely chance, not being able to travel for millennia and regenerates, fading back to his universe.

The Doctor looks at Earth and laments "one day, I'll go back" before regenerating into an incarnation that becomes the ninja.
