[The Doctor appears on the Plane, a mixture of utterly confused, and mildly annoyed] Oi! Bit more of an explanation would be nice! What sort of machine... [and he trails off when he notices the stars and galaxies, his expression turning to one of manic delight]

Fantastic! [walks around a bit, relieved to find that he is not falling through space, before noticing something] ...Hang on, this is all a bit wrong. Like some idiot cut up the universe and pasted it back together, but they’ve got no idea where anything goes. [digs through his pockets and eventually pulls out a red sharpie and a pad of paper, drawing out some proper star charts, and sticking them onto the “floor” of the Plane with duct tape. Because it holds the universe together.]

See? Not terribly complicated, is it? I’m sure you lot could fix it up this “machine” of yours with a bit of jiggery-pokery in no time. [crosses his arms] I’d fix it myself, but I’ve sort of got things to do, places to see, etc. So if someone wouldn’t mind showing me the way out, I’d appreciate it, thanks. [ waits for some kind of response] ...Ah. Maybe a bit of bribery? I’ve got...erm...[digs around in his pockets again, and pulls out a banana] ...a banana? Good source of potassium, bananas. [another pause] That’s never going to work, is it?

Last I checked, yeah. [notices the way he is looking at her and after a minute makes a face] Oh, I get it. It's like that last one, you went off traveling with Mickey too, yeah?

[frowns] Mickey? Who's Mickey?

Mickey. He was my - remember with the living plastic, his head came off, you brought champagne? You bringing round champagne was really the thing that made his head come off.

[beat]

Guess that means you weren't off traveling around the universe with him.

Oh yeah, Ricky. I remember him. [sort of. ...a little. he shrugs at the last bit.] Nope. Just been on my own, mostly. There was this bloke named Adam, but he just turned out to be another stupid ape.

Betting we both got the same Adam? [snaps her fingers, raising an eyebrow, a slight grin] Yeah?

[chuckles] That's the one. Dumped him off at his house with that stupid chip in his head and left him there. Then I wound up here.

[smiles, then hesitates for a moment, biting her lip] So how come you didn't end up traveling with me?

[have an awkward shrug, Rose] I offered. You said you'd rather stay. So I left.

Seriously?

But, it's still not right, I don't know how I'd not. When you said about time, it was all Mickey could do to try and stop me.

[blinks] What d'you mean, when I said about time?
