Scene: The arena is packed. The lights dim, and the crowd erupts into cheers as Taylor Swift takes the stage. She steps into the spotlight, the audience singing along to the opening notes of one of her hits. The atmosphere is electric, but from the front row, there's an unexpected disturbance.
A Dalek, visibly swaying, stumbles in with an unsteady movement, its eye stalk flickering erratically. It’s clearly off its game—slurring and wobbling as it tries to make its way to the front. The crowd starts to notice, and a few people point and whisper. The Dalek, oblivious to its surroundings, starts shouting over the music.
Drunk Dalek (slurring loudly, to the shock of those nearby): "EX-TER-MIN-ATE THE POP STARS! I mean... LOVE THE POP STARS! EXTERMINATE... I mean... LOVE... Taylor Swift! I CAN'T... I CAN'T KEEP UP!"
Taylor Swift, mid-performance, notices the commotion. She pauses for a moment, raising an eyebrow, unsure of what to make of the situation. The crowd looks on, unsure if this is part of the show.
Drunk Dalek (now screaming at the top of its lungs, waving its plunger wildly): "*YOU'RE ALL DOING IT WRONG! STOP WRITING ABOUT BOYS... WRITE ABOUT THE GLORY OF EX-TER-MIN-ATION! YOUR ALBUMS ARE... EXCELLENT... BUT EXTERMINATE THE CLICHES!"
Taylor Swift (trying to keep her composure, laughing nervously): "Uh... okay, wow, um... what’s that? A fan in the front row, I see? Nice to meet you...?"
The audience bursts into laughter, unsure if this is part of some unexpected interaction or if this Dalek is genuinely out of its mind.
Drunk Dalek (pauses for a second, then starts to sing drunkenly): "I KNEW YOU WERE TROUBLE WHEN YOU WALKED IN... I KNEW YOU WERE TROUBLE WHEN YOU— EXTERMINATE!*"
The Dalek stumbles over its own words, trying to sing along but failing miserably. The crowd is losing it—half entertained, half terrified by the sight of the Dalek’s slurred attempt at karaoke.
Drunk Dalek (now getting louder, slurring every word): "YOU’RE GONNA GET YOUR HEART BROKEN, SWIFT... YOU’RE GONNA BE EXTERMINATED BY THE DALEK!"
Taylor Swift (pausing her performance, laughing now): "Okay, okay, um... that’s... definitely new. You know what, if you’re going to sing along, I guess we can do a duet! But... maybe we tone down the extermination part?"
Drunk Dalek (confused, trying to process what’s happening): "*A DUET... YES! I WILL EXTERMINATE... WITH YOU! I’M YOUR BIGGEST FAN!"
The Dalek proceeds to drunkenly dance (if you can call it that)—wobbling side to side, its plunger flailing around wildly. The audience is loving every second of it. Some are even pulling out their phones to capture this bizarre moment in concert history.
Drunk Dalek (suddenly serious, slurring like a broken record): "*YOU'RE ALL THE SAME, YOU’RE ALL THE SAME! EX-TER-MIN-ATE ALL THE HEARTBREAK SONGS! I WILL WRITE THE BEST SONG ABOUT EXTERMINATING ALL THE EXES!"
Taylor Swift (with a grin, playing along): "Oh, so you're a heartbreaker too, huh? Well, maybe we should collab. 'Exterminate My Heart'... I think we have something here!"
The Dalek, caught in the absurdity of the moment, tries to "sing" but only manages to shout unintelligibly, much to the delight of the audience.
Drunk Dalek (randomly, out of nowhere): "THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS! EXTERMINATE THE BAD REPUTATION... EXTERMINATE THE HATERS!"
Taylor Swift (laughing, playing with the crowd’s energy): "Alright, alright, I think we need to get you some water... or maybe some oil, I don’t know what works for Daleks."
The Dalek continues to shout, wave its plunger, and mumble to itself, slowly backing away from the stage—its voice fading into incoherent mumbling as it exits the spotlight.
Drunk Dalek (as it stumbles away, still slurring): "EXTERMINATE... I’M A DALEK, NOT A STAGEHAND, EX-TER-MIN-ATE THE CONFUSION!"
The crowd bursts into applause and laughter, unsure if they’ve just witnessed a marketing stunt or the most bizarre encounter at a Taylor Swift concert ever. Taylor, still chuckling, continues her set as if nothing happened, but you can see a twinkle in her eye, amused by the Dalek’s unexpected interruption.
