The following morning, Bell hears what sounds like a fire alarm. It's not in their building - it's at least a block away. From her window, she can clearly see the house that's caught, near the train station, and just as clearly see that there isn't any bucket brigade handling it yet.
She seizes her wand from the nightstand and assumes control over the fire; if there's anyone in the unburnt part of the house they'll be able to get out. "SHERLOCK! TONY!" she calls.
Bell wants a second opinion before she snakes this fire down the corner of the house and over the grass to destroy the train station.

Bell smiles when she sees Libby, and then she looks amusedly at the other Tony and Sherlock -
And then she screams and draws her wand on the fourth of the party.

Meanwhile, Sherlock has shifted posture just enough to emphasize to the other Sherlock which side he is on.

And Tony is giving Obie a look of semi-affectionate despair, 'I can't take you anywhere' flavour.

Bell has now slowly begun to realize that this is not their version of this man. While he could easily be bad news, the fact that he has seen their recognizable selves, in Milliways, does not mean that they are all now going to die unless they can kill him and run off to another world to escape deadman-switch reprisals. She lowers her wand arm.
(But her wand doesn't leave her hand. It doesn't actually need to point at her target. It just needs to be in her hand.)

Obadiah looks from his fiancee to the other Tony (and that must be another Sherlock, what an interesting design choice) and accompanying terrified stranger.
Then he says dryly, "Have fun, dear," and heads out his door, which thanks to the convenience of Milliways topology is on the other side of the room.

With him gone, Bell is content to put her hair back up again.
"So," she says to Elizabeth. "That's your fiancé, huh?"
And her voice shakes only a little bit.

Bell peers between the Sherlocks. "I suppose you don't want to share with those of us who aren't observant enough to pretend we're telepathic."

Bell turns to her version of Tony. "Are you okay?"
Because Sherlock mentioned Snow is regularly horrible to Tony. And freezing isn't necessarily a less terrified reaction than screaming and drawing a weapon.
