01. And now for something completely different
[The Doctor is smiling happily and humming a Beatles song to himself.] Ah, The Beatles. Earth has produced quite the preeminent collection of musicians, though few compare to The Beatles. Oh, but I can't forget Miles Davis and John Coltrane, now, can I? Different favorites for different genres. I couldn't very well compare a rock 'n' roll band to jazz luminaries, it's hardly an even playing field. So to speak.
[Glancing at the food and drink he's precariously balancing in his hands, the Doctor ponders what he's currently holding.] I don't have the affinity for bacon sandwiches that Ace does, but chips are rather nice on occasion, and I must say, I do enjoy these chocolate malts. Far more delicious than carrot juice.
[At last, he realizes he's not on a street, or anywhere near Harry's Café, the place he only just left. It's hard to determine when exactly the scenery changed, but this is most certainly not where he's supposed to be. It's different, and he supposes it should be disconcerting, but with no sign of an immediate threat, he allows himself a moment to appreciate the view.] Well, this is peculiar.

She'll ask him about it again, but not now. For now she wants a few minutes just to be with her best mate.]
I care sod all for the food, as much as I might moan about it. i miss my home and my friend, and would rather a visit for the purpose of a visit then an intergalactic delivery service.
[Frowns a little] i know well enough that I need to stick it out at the Academy now that I've started, but bloody hell, can't you pop along the timeline and go pick me up now?
[sigh]

Yes, perhaps I should visit more frequently. I hadn't realized...well, I thought it might be far more advantageous for you if I were scarce while you adjusted to Academy life.
[Obviously, he was oblivious to the fact that he might have been needed even more precisely because Ace was dealing with a new environment and new situation by herself]
Even for something so seemingly innocuous, I couldn't meddle with Time. I can, however, visit you. I'm sorry for being so absent before, Ace.

[If this was a movie this would be the appropriate place for a montage of Ace alone and in dire straights - jail cells, tied to chairs, being interigated by Jager, attacked by various monsters, etc]
You better be sorry.
[There's little to no ire this time, though, and her voice is a little rough with emotion. The nose touches have triggered something and she can no longer deny herself - she throws herself at him, burying her face in his waistcoat.
Her voice is muffled]
Missed you.
