"All right you primitive screwheads, listen up. I'm the Doctor, and if you don't get me what I need this in entire planet is going to blow up...maybe twice! Get me a sandwich, some gold, a...lampshade, and the most complicated piece of machinery you have. If I can reverse the whosiwatsit, you all may live. Well? Where's my sandwich!"
A backwater colony of meek but hard-working colonists have had their prayers answered; the Doctor has come to save them from the nefarious Dalek. Only problem; both are fake!
"Hear me people of Traggle-Waggle: I am DALEK the MAGNIFICENT, and you are all going to DIIIIIIIIIIIIIE!"
Two out of work actors have hatched a scheme. One (played by Brian Blessed in my head) is going to run around town in a normally unconvincing Dalek machine, blowing up property and shouting threats. The other (played by Bruce Campbell) is going to come up after the Dalek leaves and go through the typical St. George events of getting wine, women, and money to defeat the evil monster.
"You cannot defeat me, Doctor! I AM SUPERIOR! ALSO...I AM YOUR FATHER!" (Chorus of gasps from the crowd) "<whispered>I told you that line would go over well."
Several problems could arise.
* The TARDIS lands near the village. The Fake Doctor convinces the townsfolk to steal it; how much more could he get away with with a TARDIS? Now the PCs have to figure out where the TARDIS went while hearing rummors of the Great All-Powerful Shouting Dalek.
*"What? There's two of us? Yeah, guys that's um...my future evil self! Go get him!"
* The two actors are running low on credibility, and start using powerful ancient technology from a ruin to scare the villagers again. While the new gig between the "Doctor" and his tame Dalek who does tricks works, soon they actually release something totally out of their league.
* The System Council gets word of the "Dalek Infestation" and sends a planetary destruction fleet. Now the PCs have to convince the con men to fess up before the entire world pays for the con.
