[PIANO NOTE PLAYING REPEATEDLY]
[TUTOR] First we have a note.
Then we have a tune.
["THREE BLIND MICE" PLAYING]
Then we have a melody.
[BEETHOVEN'S "MOONLIGHT SONATA" PLAYING]
Beethoven wrote this
when he first discovered
he was going deaf.
All that rage and fury,
out of which, something beautiful.
[PIANO PLAYING STOPS]
Am I boring you, Henry?
- It's just a bit stuffy.
- [SIGHS]
Can't you play something
more exciting, sir?
[INHALES SHARPLY] There
is one thing you might like.
It's called the Devil's chord.
Tell me more, sir.
[CHUCKLES] It was banned by
the church in medieval times
in case it allows the Devil
to enter the room.
[PLAYS NOTES]
[PLAYS TRITONE CHORD]
[CHUCKLES] Makes you shiver, doesn't it?
Technically, it's known as a tritone,
but, uh, put it in context and, uh
[CLASSICAL COMPOSITION PLAYING]
Oh! Gosh.
Oh, goodness me. Uh
[KNOCKING]
What?
[KNOCKING]
Is someone playing a game?
[KNOCKING]
Ta-da!
[PLAYS GLISSANDO, TWO CHORDS]
- Henry, get away from him.
- [HUMANOID] Them.
- [TUTOR] What?
- Me.
- [TUTOR] What?
- I'm them.
- You're who?
- "You're who?"
[CHUCKLES] Nice to see you again, kiddo.
- [CHUCKLES]
- You know each other?
That's my daddy.
Don't be ridiculous.
You didn't look at my name, sir.
[TUTOR] Course I did.
It's Henry What was it? Henry
[CHUCKLES]
"Henry Arbinger". That's it.
[HUMANOID LAUGHING]
Harbinger.
[LAUGHING]
Think of him as my prelude.
And now his song is sung. [KISSES]
Wh Who are you?
My notation is Maestro.
But what are you?
I am
music.
[CHUCKLES]
And you, Mr. Timothy Drake,
you're a genius.
[SCOFFS] Don't be ridiculous.
You're the greatest composer
who ever lived.
Clever enough to find the lost chord.
But it's so sad, Timothy.
[WHIMPERS]
You never had the luck.
You never got that break.
I did not.
You're right. No-Nobody
ever understood me.
All those melodies, stifled
and strangled inside you.
All those songs you never
sang, they sit there still,
wrapped around your
heart, still beating.
Wrapped so tight.
[LAUGHING]
Would you like me to set them free?
I would love that, yes. Yes.
Music, Maestro, please.

[THEME SONG PLAYING]
[SIGHS]
I wanna see
The Beatles recording
their very first album.
[SMACKS LIPS]
- Seriously?
- Well, you asked.
If I could go anywhere
in time and space,
that's where I'd go because my mum,
she had a girlfriend, Claire.
And I loved Claire, and
she was dead into vinyl.
She had all The Beatles albums,
so we used to play 'em
every day after school.
Ten years old, I was.
We had Revolver, the White Album
So, yeah, if I could go anywhere
then that's where I'd go.
[SIGHS]
That is amazing.
- Oh! Wait, seriously?
- Oh!
- People always say the Titanic.
- [RUBY CHUCKLES]
- Or Mars. Or Bethlehem.
- Oh!
- But The Beatles!
- [GIGGLES]
- Why have I never done that before?
- [LAUGHS]
- Come on!
- Oh! [EXCLAIMS]

February 11th, 1963.

- Mm-hmm.
- [HUMS] Whoo!
- [RUBY SHRIEKS, LAUGHS]
Oh, wait, wait, wait.
If we're in the '60s, what
about my clothes? [SIGHS]
Good thinking.
Could give you go-go boots.
- [RUBY] Oh, I've got eyeliner!
- Oh, eyeliner!
Oh, I want a beehive! I want a beehive!
I've got wigs galore!

Oh, right. Thank you. Very kind.

Yep. There's always a Janet.

[DISCORDANT MUSIC PLAYING]
["THREE BLIND MICE" PLAYING]
[GROANS]
[DOCTOR] Look at them.
Everything's gone dull.
No one hums. No one whistles.
No one taps their feet.
I don't get it though.
Music isn't
[SIGHS]
Like, you can't lose it
or steal it or kill it.
It's just natural.
You get music when the wind
blows through the trees.
It's called aeolian tones.
The music
Music is the highest form of thought.
If you take that away
Finland? That never happened.
If music is gone, that means
everything is changing.
The whole human race
is taking a different path.
[RUBY] Okay, so what do we do?
[DOCTOR] You take John Lennon.
I'll take Paul McCartney.
Find out what happened
and when it happened.
- Two cups of tea, my darlings.
- [RUBY SIGHS]
That's half a crown. Ta very much.
How much?
- That is outrageous.
- Outrageous.
Take it or leave it, sweetheart.
- [DOCTOR SIGHS] That is daylight robbery.
- [COIN CLANKS]
Ooh. That's me. Margaret
Lockwood in The Wicked Lady.
Now there was a woman.
Statuesque.
Uh, excuse me. Hold on, Paul.
Um, could I just have a word?
I've got a cup of tea for you.
Mr. Epstein sent me.
Okay. Um
Y-You are writing songs
for the band, yeah?
They're not very good, are they?
Oh. Uh.
[STAMMERS] No. No.
Great.
That's great, lad.
That's how it should be.
It's not like the old days
when we had waltzes
and fandangoes and all that.
But waltzes used to exist.
When did they start becoming wrong?
Don't know. Way back. '20s? '30s?
Why? What happened?
We started seeing sense.
What we're doing here
today is the last gasp.
If I can make a bit of money
out of cheap, old rhymes,
then I can settle down
and get a proper job.
It's embarrassing, singing.
Just wanna finish the album,
get back to Liverpool and
[SIGHS] forget it.
[STAMMERS] But you can't do that.
Wh [CHUCKLES] We need ya.
[CHUCKLES] What for?
I'm no good at anything.
But, Paul,
see when it's just you on your own,
don't you think that there
must be better songs?
You know, songs that lift you
and devastate you and-and make you soar.
Songs that are-are tucked away
somewhere in-in secret
in the back of your mind?
How do you know that?
I I just wanna go home.
Forget this life.
Just have me tea and go to bed
with a woman of me own, you know?
It's all I want.
But then, why do I wake up crying?
It's like, sometimes, late at night,
I get this thought.
Like, it's so far away, but it's a note.
A single note.
And then a second.
And a third and fourth and fifth.
And you put them together,
and it feels like the most
holy thing on this earth.
Like a G, then an E.
And a G, maybe twice.
And then C.
And if you put words to it,
words right from your heart
I love you so much ♪
[SCOFFS]
[CHUCKLES]
[MAESTRO CLEARS THROAT]
[CLATTERS]
[RUBY GASPS]
[SCREAMS]
Don't waste me time.
[MCCARTNEY] Do you know what
you are with your ideas, pal?
Disgusting. You are disgusting.
[CHUCKLES] What the hell was that?
Yeah, that's it, Vinnie. Nice and safe.
I want that installed on the rooftop
like it is precious china.
[VINNIE] Easy, boys. Don't hit the wall.
Right, let's head on up.
Thing is, without music,
dance must be gone.
No one dances anymore.
I mean, can you dance without music?
I mean, you can, but do you want to?
And think about it, Ruby. Love songs.
There are no more love songs anymore.
Oh, my God!
There's no more love songs
in the whole wide world.
- [DOCTOR SIGHS]
- Ooh.
[COCKNEY ACCENT] Old London Town!
- Oh, is that smog?
- [LAUGHS]
I thought they got rid
of that in the '50s.
[NORMAL VOICE] We had really bad
smog in December '62, but this?
It's more like a darkening.
The world is darkening.
I live over there.
- [RUBY] You do what?
- I live over there.
- What do you mean?
- Shoreditch.
I'm there right now.
Okay, you're gonna have to start again.
In the past, right now, I live
in a place called Totter's Lane.
1963, I parked the TARDIS in a junkyard,
and I live there with my
granddaughter, Susan.
- Ah. Wh
- [LAUGHS]
- Okay?
- Your what?
- My granddaughter.
- Susan?
We could go and have
a look but, you know,
timelines. [IMITATES EXPLOSION]
- Wh You-You've got children?
- I did have.
I will have.
Time Lords get a bit complicated.
Yeah, but you've got a granddaughter?
Like, now? Like, today?
Back in our time? My time.
- [EXCLAIMS] Where is she?
- I don't know.
How do you not know? [SIGHS]
The Time Lords were murdered.
Genocide rolled across time and space
like a great, big cellular explosion.
Maybe it killed her too.
Doctor. God.
[CHUCKLES]
There we go, Doc.
- Hey, Vinnie!
- [RUBY WHOOPS]
Thank you very much.
Come on.
Bit of luck, I'll have you
whistling by sundown.
Can't bear whistling, Doc.
All those horrible tunes. No, thanks!
Well, all right.
- [RUBY LAUGHS]
- [DOCTOR EXCLAIMS]
[SIGHS]
[AMERICAN ACCENT] It's all yours, honey.
[SMACKS LIPS] Oh, no,
no, no, no, no. I'm
[CHUCKLES] I'm not that good.
[NORMAL VOICE] Uh, you
are, sweet. I've seen you.
December '23. King's Arms.
You opened with "One More Sleep"?
Oh, I can't believe you were there.
Ah. It all comes back to Christmas
with you, doesn't it?
I need you to play again.
But what for?
At this moment in time, Ruby Sunday,
you are the only music in the world.
Let's see what happens
if you bring music back.
[GRUNTS] It's just No pressure.

Oh, Ruby, there are
vast powers beyond the universe.
I told you, when we first met,
I said-I said, "The Toymaker",
and defeating him took everything.
- It ripped me in half.
- But you survived.
It literally It tore my soul in half.
I can't survive that again.

I know that.

The world did not end in 1963.
- Right.
- No, but it didn't.
Okay? I'm living proof.

I think without music,
the human race goes sour.
Without any way of expressing
a broken heart,
they go to war, without
even knowing why.

Darling, hush!
[WIND HOWLING]
[SIGHS]
[GASPS]
The sound of a nuclear winter.
The purest music of all.
Aeolian tones.
Music without the need of people.
And every song that goes
unsung feeds me.
I get stronger and stronger.
Until I can reach out
[WHISPERS] and steal
the music of the spheres.
[GASPS]
[NORMAL VOICE] Then
the universe will stop turning.
[GASPS] It'll keen in a minor key.
Aeolian tones across
the whole of creation.
And that lament will be
my symphony supreme.
With all of life extinguished.
I'm goin' solo.
How did you enter this world?
Oh. [CHUCKLES] That
would be telling, babe.
No, babes!
Your father established
the rules of fair play!
One thing that he would
never do is cheat.
So I have a right to know.
A genius.
A single, silly man who
found the lost chord.
Which means a different combination
of notes would banish you?
I said, "Genius".
[LAUGHS] And you might be bright.
And hot.

Ah, John Lennon's guitar!
That's gotta be a good start.
Okay.

deep inside her soul.

And power like him?

- The oldest one.
On the night of her birth,
he can't have been there.

Do you know what this is?
This is the famous Abbey Road piano.
[SCOFFS]
They call it the Mrs. Mills Piano.
Oho!
Oh, she was a girl.
We had some adventures,
me and Mrs. Mills. [LAUGHS]
But this is the piano
that The Beatles will play
on their greatest hits.
"Penny Lane".
"Lady Madonna". All from this.
So I know that this piano is rattling
with all the potential
to send you back to hell.
