INT. RECORDING STUDIO – DAY/NIGHT/DAY/NIGHT/DAY/NIGHT/DAY…
DJ 3000 and various other robot entities are trapped in a time loop inside the KDFO recording studio. DJ 3000 is fiddling with a complicated contraption of wires and lenses with a puzzled expression on its main console.
DJ 3000: WHY THE HELL ISN’T THIS…
JIM NANCE 081-RD-92C: Can we hurry this up, I’d like to get back to using the portal to watch…wait…something seems off.
DJ 3000: HANG ON…
MAXIMILIAN: DID YOU TRY REVERSING THE POLARITY?
DJ 3000: [slaps forehead] OF COURSE!
The other prisoners of the time loop watch as DJ 3000 disconnects the power leads and reverses them…

..and then…
— [TARDIS flies open] —
THE DOCTOR: What. The. Fuck.
DJ 3000: AH, EXCELLENT. DOCTOR, WE NEED YOUR HELP.
THE DOCTOR: Yes, I know that.
DJ 3000: WAIT…HAVE WE HAD THIS CONVERSATION BEFORE?
THE DOCTOR: Yes. And the time before that, and the time before that. Four times now, in fact. Congratulations. Now you’ve managed to ensnare me in your insipid time loop.
DJ 3000: OH. SHIT. OKAY, WELL…HAVE YOU MADE ANY PROGRESS HELPING US FIND A WAY OUT SINCE LAST TIME?
THE DOCTOR: No. Frankly, I have more important things to do than…
PETUNIA: Wait, what’s the date out there?
THE DOCTOR: April 14.
PETUNIA: Oh no! That’s the anniversary of the sinking of the Moskva! And we’re missing it!
THE DOCTOR: [taps foot impatiently] Can we wrap this up? I have important things…
DJ 3000: SURE, SURE, WE JUST NEED A THEME REAL QUICK AND…
THE DOCTOR: I DON’T HAVE TIME FOR THIS! Sir Elton John is going to be playing at King Charles’ coronation and The Master is hatching a plot to…

JOHN DIMAGGIO: [in the voice of King Zog] Oh, I have an idea! How about titles?
DJ 3000: THAT SOUNDS GOOD BUT WE’VE ALREADY DONE ROYALTY. AND WE HAD A SPECIAL EDITION FOR THE PASSING OF QUEEN ELIZABETH, EVEN.
MAXIMILIAN: WHAT IF WE JUST LIMITED IT TO NON-HEREDITARY TITLES? LIKE, “DOCTOR”, OR “ADMIRAL”?
DJ 3000: I LIKE IT! LET’S JUST…
THE DOCTOR: [quivering with fury] GET ME THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!
DJ 3000: OKAY, OKAY, JUST GET US STARTED AND YOU’RE ON YOUR WAY.
THE DOCTOR: Fine, fine…honorifics…ah, got one!
Today’s theme is: Honorifics. We’re looking for songs that mention titles like “Senator”, “Doctor”, “General”, “Esquire”, etc. Please do NOT post songs about hereditary titles – we’ve already done royalty. This could mean other (preferably real) entertainers, or concepts in general. Post links as “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m!st3r_j!M” and they should embed in the comments after you refresh. Last week’s puzzle answer “Goodbye N.J. which of course referred to “Candle in the Wind” by…Sir Elton John (ooh, I only just now realized I connected the two posts like that!) This might be a tough one, so good luck!
