David Tennant: The Doctor

Midnight

The Doctor

The Doctor: No. No, I'm with this friend of mine. Donna. She stayed behind in the Leisure Palace. You?
Sky Silvestry: No, it's just me.
The Doctor: Oh, I've done plenty of that, traveling on my own. I love it! Do what you want, go anywhere.
Sky Silvestry: Ah, I'm still getting used to it. I found myself single rather recently, not by choice.
The Doctor: What happened?
Sky Silvestry: Oh, the usual. She needed her own space, as they say. A different galaxy, in fact. I reckon that's enough space, don't you?
The Doctor: Yeah. I had a friend who went to a different universe.

[Sky stares intensely at the frightened passengers]
Dee Dee Blasco, Sky Silvestry: We must not look at goblin men.
Biff Cane, Sky Silvestry: What's that supposed to mean?
The Doctor, Sky Silvestry: It's a poem. Christina Rossetti.
Dee Dee Blasco, Sky Silvestry: We must not look at goblin men / We must not buy their fruits / Who knows upon what soil they fed / Their hungry, thirsty roots?
The Doctor, Sky Silvestry: Actually, I don't think that's helping.

Donna Noble: Oy! And you be careful, all right?
The Doctor: Ahh, taking a big space truck with a bunch of strangers across a diamond planet called Midnight? What could possibly go wrong?

Dee Dee Blasco: I'm just a second-year student, but I wrote a paper on the lost moon of Poosh. Professor Hobbes read it, liked it, took me on as researcher, just for the holidays. Well, I say "researcher," most of the time he's got me fetchin' and carryin'. But it's all good experience.
The Doctor: And did they ever find it?
Dee Dee Blasco: Find what?
The Doctor: The lost moon of Poosh.
Dee Dee Blasco: [laughing] Oh, no, not yet.
The Doctor: Well, maybe that'll be your great discovery one day. Here's to Poosh.
Dee Dee Blasco: [returning toast] Poosh.

The Doctor: And I've spoken with the Captain, I can *guarantee* you, everything's fine.
[knocking starts]

Dee Dee Blasco: Well, six seconds exactly. That's enough time to throw someone out.
The Doctor: Well, thanks Dee Dee, that's *just* what we needed!

[the Doctor and Sky are speaking simultaneously]
The Doctor, Sky Silvestry: Now then, Sky. Are you Sky?
The Doctor, Sky Silvestry: Is Sky still in there? Mrs Silvestry?
The Doctor, Sky Silvestry: You know exactly what I am going to say, how are you doing that?
[the Doctor pauses]
The Doctor, Sky Silvestry: Roast beef. Bananas. The Medusa Cascade.
[the Doctor moves closer to Sky]
The Doctor, Sky Silvestry: [loudly] Bang!
The Doctor, Sky Silvestry: [rapidly] Rose Tyler, Martha Jones, Donna Noble, Tardis!
The Doctor, Sky Silvestry: [speaking normally] Shamble, booble, dibble, dooble.
The Doctor, Sky Silvestry: Oh Doctor, you're so handsome! Yes, I am thank you!
