“Doctor? Doctor, why don’t I believe you-”
“Nonsense, Sarah Jane. I assure you that I have the situation completely under control. In fact, I would even go so far as to say that I’ll have the situation mastered in, oh, two point five minutes.”
“I really don’t believe you.”
“And why’s that?”
“Because it’s you, Doctor! You’d probably think a situation is under control if we were being chased by… by a giant heard of rhinoceroses!”
“Which, I would remind you, we are not. Now, it’s not as if there’s anything dire about the current dilemma, is there?”
“…oh, I wouldn’t say that.”
“Oh?”
“Because you… you shifting that way and…
stop it, Doctor! Stop it!”
“Stop what?”
“That!”
“This?”

“Doctor.”
“Your move, I’m afraid.”
“My-
Ow! Bloody hell, that hurt!”
“Two point five minutes exactly, Sarah Jane.”
“Cheat.”
“Really. I must protest. A Time Lord’s body happens to be-”
“And a Time Lord’s scarf? Oh, honestly! ”
“Honestly.”
“Doctor? Doctor, why don’t I believe you-”
