Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "Smith and Jones" - What is Martha's profession?

Answer: Medical student

Heading to work at the Royal Hope Hospital, Martha Jones goes about her time as a medical student shortly before the hospital is uprooted from its foundations and sent to the surface of the moon. The Doctor, of course, has been investigating, but was never aware of the planned shift in space; it was organized by the Judoon, who separated the building from London due to the lack of jurisdiction they had in bringing an alien criminal to justice. Fortunately, The Doctor and Martha are able to solve the mystery and identify the culprit, a Plasmavore masquerading as an old woman, before she can set off a super-charged MRI machine, destroy half the Earth, and escape in the Judoon ships. Following this adventure, the Doctor decides to take Martha onto the TARDIS as a thank you.
2. "The Shakespeare Code" - Martha and the Doctor head to London in 1599 to witness an authentic Shakespearean performance, but which of these plays do they see?

Answer: Love's Labour's Lost

Promising Martha one trip through time and space, the Doctor brings her back to London in 1599 to witness the premiere of Shakespeare's "Love's Labour's Lost" and then, quickly, meet the writer himself at a local inn. What they discover, however, is that he also plans to premiere "Love's Labour's Won", a play that never actually ended up debuting, according to Martha. What they discover is that a near-extinct alien-race known as the Carrionites is using the power of language to bring back their type back into the universe.

They nearly get away with it, but the Doctor convinces Shakespeare to banish them to a crystal ball once and for all. When all is said and done, "Love's Labour's Won" is destroyed and Queen Elizabeth I, horribly angry with the Doctor upon arriving at the Globe (for something he's not quite aware of) chases them to the TARDIS.
3. "Gridlock" - The Doctor brings Martha to New New York. What do they discover in the 'Fast Lane' of the Motorway?

Answer: The Macra

Taking Martha on another trip, this time into the distant future, the Doctor ends up bringing her to one of the places he brought Rose, New New York on New Earth. When he arrives this time, however, it's in the slums, and Martha is promptly whisked away by two people who plan to bring her with them into the carpool 'Fast Lane' of the New New York Motorway, one which has trapped drivers for decades without letting them out.

When the Doctor follows he discovers that feral, enlarged Macra, crab-like creatures, devour people in their vehicles at the bottom of the Motorway, and the only way he can inevitably save Martha (and the rest of New New York) is with the help of the Face of Boe, who's dying up in the now-empty senate on the surface. Fortunately, the Doctor and the Face of Boe are able to do so, though at the cost of the latter's life. Following this, Martha is able to get the Doctor to open up a bit about his past.
4. "Daleks in Manhattan"/"Evolution of the Daleks" - Visiting New York City in the 1930s, Martha and the Doctor discover that which Dalek group has begun its invasion?

Answer: The Cult of Skaro

The Cult of Skaro, who previously appeared in London during the Doctor's final adventure with Rose, return in this instance to commence their new operations. The Doctor, opting to take Martha to the actual New York, ends up bringing her to the 1930s during the construction of the Empire State Building. What they find, however, is that the Cult of Skaro is transforming local workers into pigmen and attempting to infuse them with Dalek DNA to make hybrids, one of whom ends up being attacked by the Cult in mutiny when they realize his new motives. With the help of a dancer named Tallulah, the Doctor and Martha put an end to most of the Cult, but not before one of the Daleks, Caan, escapes at the last moment.
5. "The Lazarus Experiment" takes place in the present time.

Answer: True

The Doctor, having fulfilled his promise to Martha, returns her to her apartment in London and is set to depart...that is until he catches word that a professor has found the alleged fountain of youth in science. They and Martha's family head to the gala and witness Professor Lazarus succeed in his experiment, but the event has massive repercussions as it transforms Lazarus into a horrible monster. Everyone escapes, but to defeat the Professor, Martha and her sister need to act as bait while the Doctor destroys him. Martha is allowed to keep traveling with the Doctor, but her mother has severe doubts about this new man in her daughter's life.
6. "42" - The title of this episode refers to the amount of minutes before which of these occurs?

Answer: A spaceship crashes into the sun

Traveling into deep space in the distant future, Martha and the Doctor end up on a mining spacecraft orbiting a sun just in time to get trapped there by failing systems and a seemingly evil creature possessing the crew of the ship, enabling them to attack their colleagues with the power of the sun emitted from their eyes.

The Doctor discovers what it is-- it's actually an infection spread by the living star outside, only spread because the ship was mining it. Of course, the Doctor is infected and Martha has to jump into action to save him and the crew from almost certain death as the ship hurtles toward the sun.

She does, and a couple of the crew members are able to survive, so it's off to another adventure.
7. "Human Nature"/"The Family of Blood" - The Doctor needs to use the Chameleon Arch to escape 'The Family', and in doing so he becomes human. What is his new profession?

Answer: School teacher

The Doctor and Martha flee from a group of aliens known as 'The Family of Blood' who are after the Time Lord to steal his life power, granting them immortality. Fortunately, the Doctor is able to hide himself, but only by transforming into a human with the Chameleon Arch, locking his memories away in a pocketwatch, and laving Martha to take care of him for the years it takes the Family to die on their own.

Unfortunately, they're found hiding in 1913 England where the Doctor, now a school teacher named John Smith, is unaware of anything going on.

Much of the time is spent by Martha trying to bring the Doctor back to his senses, even though he fears reverting back to his normal self. Fate can't be stopped though; the Doctor effectively traps the Family by destroying their ship and he and Martha have to leave their lives in 1913 behind.
8. "Blink" - This episode features the Weeping Angels, creatures which do which of the following to their prey?

Answer: Send them back in time

The bulk of this episode actually does not include the Doctor in a significant way; much of the mystery that unfolds is done for Sally Sparrow, who only comes into contact with the Doctor because she is the key to sending the TARDIS back to him and Martha-- they were touched by a Weeping Angel and sent back to 1969.

She determines that the Weeping Angels are responsible when she and her roommate's brother, Larry, watch the Doctor on a DVD originally filmed in the past and the two of them head to a house outside the city to help. Ultimately, Sally is able to send the TARDIS back in time, but it takes another year before she runs into the Doctor and is able to give him all he needs to contact her in the past.
9. "Utopia"/"The Sound of Drums" - The Master, transporting himself from the end of the universe, returns to twenty-first century London in the guise of which of these?

Answer: The Prime Minister

The Doctor and Martha end up in Cardiff just in time for Captain Jack Harkness to make a reappearance in the Doctor's adventures; he ends up jumping on the TARDIS as it hurtles into the distant future, specifically to the eventual end of the universe, where the Futurekind reign and any remaining humans seek a place known as Utopia. Unfortunately, a man named Professor Yana possesses a watch similar to the Doctor's when he stored his memories within it in 1913. The watch transfers its powerful contents into the Professor when he opens it, bringing to life a great nemesis of the Doctor's-- The Master-- and he begins to take the TARDIS and strand them where they are. They're only able to follow it using Jack's vortex manipulator to jump back in time...to the twenty-first century.

The Doctor and Martha realize as soon as they return that The Master is none other than Harold Saxon, the new Prime Minister of Britain. He's also been hunting down The Doctor, and he's known that Martha has been involved; her apartment has been booby trapped and her family has been captured. He also introduces the world to the Toclafane, an alleged alien race that plans to make harmonious contact with Earth. The adventure takes them to the Valiant, an aircraft carrier in the sky, and they find that the TARDIS has been recreated into a paradox machine. The Master ultimately reveals himself to the world, killing the U.S. President in the process, and activating the TARDIS to let loose the Toclafane, spreading six billion of them onto Earth via the created vortex. The Master temporarily kills Jack with his laser screwdriver while preventing the Doctor's regeneration, significantly aging him with Dr. Lazarus' technology. Martha has no choice; she uses the vortex manipulator to bound away and vows to return to save them all. The Master wipes out one tenth of Earth's population as Martha flees London.
10. "Last of the Time Lords" - What is the name of the Master's satellite system which the Doctor uses to revert him back to his proper age?

Answer: Archangel

One year after The Master reveals himself to the world and the Toclafane, Martha returns to Britain. There, she and other fighters discover that the Toclafane are actually humans from Utopia and she has been able to accumulate pieces of a gun that Torchwood possessed that could defeat the Master. He finds her before that can happen and he brings her back to the Valiant, but in doing so he reunites her with the Doctor, allowing him to verify that she followed his plans. Using peoples' channeled energy, he's able to tap into the power of the Archangel satellite network and bring himself back to his normal self, reverting his age back.

Martha, her family, and Jack head out to destroy the paradox machine, reverting time back one year to the moment at which the Toclafane would have emerged. In that moment, The Master's human wife shoots him and he dies in the Doctor's arms. Without the Doctor's knowing, someone retrieves the Master's ring.

Jack leaves the Doctor and continues to run his new version of Torchwood while Martha decides to stay in London with her family, despite her love for the Doctor, leaving him alone. She reminds him that she still has her phone, hands it to him, and says she will call him when she needs him. As the Doctor departs in the TARDIS, the Titanic crashes into it.
