Re: UNIT Headquarters, Tower of London, Present Day
MONTAGE!
( The theme to The Great Escape plays in the background. )
THE GANG steps out of the TARDIS on board a small military ship flying the Stars and Stripes. The Osgoods, Boyle and Spiezo follow them out, and Boyle trades salutes with an American officer wearing the shoulder boards of a lieutenant commander.
Alongside the ship is a smallish, sturdy-looking submersible. It happens to be painted yellow. On the deck there is a big winch and several smaller craft, colored orange, red, magenta and green.

TRAV pushes herself out from underneath one of the small craft on a rolling cart. She's wearing a tank top and welding goggles, is smudged with grease, and has a wrench and an arc welder in her hands.
*** WIPE ***
STANLEY is talking to a couple of the USN officers, going over the contents of a large, orange floatable container with a variety of equipment and drugs, going over a refresher on decompression illness.
*** WIPE ***
SMOKE ALARM waves excitedly as the winch lowers her into the ocean, bundled into her pressure suit. They've found one in her size: it is, unfortunately, not blue, but she has already "customized" it with her paints.
*** WIPE ***
SERETH can be seen looking dubiously into the face shield of his suit and gingerly seeing how it fits onto his non-standard-human shaped head.
*** WIPE ***
TRAV, SMOKE, STANLEY and SERETH (the last in his Samuel Jackson guise, although in white shirtsleeves and slacks) walk along the boardwalk of a Caribbean resort island. SMOKE is running back and forth to look at things. TRAV is wearing a crop-top and sarong. SERETH studies the scene, appearing somewhat bemused at the waste of time.
*** WIPE ***
THE GANG is back in more functional gear, with suits and mini-subs lined up next to them, with the UNIT London group and the crew of UNS Loyal gathered around them.
OOC: Feel free to further explore or expand any of that, then we can prepare to start the expedition. You can use the ROVER or not; you can materialize the TARDIS "on station" down in the depths to deploy vehicles if you want.
Aaaand that probably becomes a new thread, actually, but we can start that when you're ready to press GO.
