Doctor Who remakes Frank Capra. George Bailey (the Doctor) wants to be rid of his obligations to Bedford Falls (the Earth) and hopes to use suicide (the power from the drill head) to leave this world (fix the TARDIS). If he's gone, who will stop Mr. Potter (Professor Stahlman) from his evil plans (rank stupidity)?
