“I told you it was a bad idea!” The Doctor muttered, rooting around under the central console.


“We couldn’t just leave them there!” Clara insisted. “You said yourself, their ship would’ve been out of air in a matter of hours! Rescuing them was the only thing to do. It wasn’t like we didn’t have enough room. Now they’re safe and their ship can be repaired. I don’t know what you’re complaining about.”


“We had forty intergalactic drag queens in the TARDIS!”


“Still not seeing the problem.”


“How can you not see it? There’s glitter everywhere, even in the flux capacitor!”

Vacuum?

Fine for the floors, not so good for getting glitter out of sensitive machinery.

Thank you!

I'm picturing duct tape being used on the less sensitive areas. I doubt the TARDIS would enjoy this scenario at all!

And a tiny soft-bristled brush to get the glitter out of the sensitive parts.

That should do the trick!

RORY: I know, leaf blowers. Use a rake.

I read leaf blowers can help, despite the noise.

BTW: Sometimes I forget to say you're welcome in response to your thank you.

Leaf blowers would be even worse than a vacuum cleaner around delicate machinery, probably blow the glitter further in.

That's okay, don't worry about it.
