When Daleks Knit

The other day, Salt and Pepper were overheard making plans.

Salt: I see the mistress has been making more friends for Pocket.  

Let's make a Dalek to be our friend.

Pepper:  I'm in.  You distract the mistress.

I'll secure the necessary supplies from her stash.

Pepper: Ouch!  Quit poking me – it hurts!

Salt:  Sorry, I didn't realize the needles would be so hard to manipulate.  

We must practice more.

Salt: Are you sure you got the right pattern?  

This doesn’t look like a Dalek to me.

Pepper: Appearances can deceive.  Trust the pattern.

Salt: We are almost finished, is this stitch a knit or a purl?

Pepper: I think it is a purl.

Finally completed, they show off their creation to the Supreme Dalek.

Supreme Dalek: You've created the enemy's time machine!

Salt: Pepper, you took the wrong pattern!

Pepper: My bad.

Supreme Dalek: Prepare yourselves to be demoted.  Demoted!  

Demoted!!!
