Oh please tell me you dance river said laughing I stared and jack and rose smirking we all burst out laughing confusing everyone the the screen resumed

[Albion hospital]
(The patients are almost within touching distance.)
DOCTOR: Go to your room.
How's that gunna work Martha said making me grin it did I said smirking
(The patients in the ward and the child in the house stand still.)
DOCTOR: Go to your room. I mean it. I'm very, very angry with you. I am very, very cross. Go to your room!
(The child and the patients hang their heads in shame and shuffle away. The child leaves the Lloyd's house and the patients get back into bed.)
DOCTOR: I'm really glad that worked. Those would have been terrible last words.
I heard Amy and Clara giggling at that making me grin at them

[The Lloyd's dining room]

(From the window, Nancy watches the child walk away down the street.)
NANCY: Jamie.
(She sits on the floor and cries.)
That poor girl Donna said sighing
[Albion Hospital ward]

ROSE: Why are they all wearing gas masks?
JACK: They're not. Those masks are flesh and bone.
DOCTOR: How was your con supposed to work?
JACK: Simple enough, really. Find some harmless piece of space junk, let the nearest Time Agent track it back to Earth, convince him it's valuable, name a price. When he's put fifty percent up front, oops! A German bomb falls on it, destroys it forever. He never gets to see what he's paid for, never knows he's been had. I buy him a drink with his own money, and we discuss dumb luck. The perfect self-cleaning con.
DOCTOR: Yeah. Perfect.
JACK: The London Blitz is great for self-cleaners. Pompeii's nice if you want to make a vacation of it though, but you've got to set your alarm for volcano day. Getting a hint of disapproval.
DOCTOR: Take a look around the room. This is what your harmless piece of space-junk did.
I'm sorry I said facing jack it's ok he said smiling softly
JACK: It was a burnt-out medical transporter. It was empty.
DOCTOR: Rose.
ROSE: Are we getting out of here?
DOCTOR: We're going upstairs.
JACK: I even programmed the flight computer so it wouldn't land on anything living. I harmed no-one. I don't know what's happening here, but believe me, I had nothing to do with it.
DOCTOR: I'll tell you what's happening. You forgot to set your alarm clock. It's volcano day.
(A siren sounds.)
ROSE: What's that?
JACK: The all clear.
DOCTOR: I wish.

[The Lloyd's hallway]

(Nancy heads for the back door and is confronted by a boy in a gas mask. He takes it off.)
NANCY: I thought you were Jamie.
God me too Clara said shocked
[The Lloyd's garden]

(Nancy runs past him.)
BOY: Dad! Dad!
LLOYD: Ruddy kids!
NANCY: Get off of me! Get your hands off me now!
(Mister Lloyd man-handles Nancy back inside the house.)
MRS. LLOYD: Oi, you! Get in! Get her in there. She's nicked!
What a pig rose said indignantly making me grin
[Albion Hospital]

JACK: Mister Spock?
ROSE: Doctor?
(They run past the staircase. The Doctor is the next flight up.)
DOCTOR: Have you got a blaster?
JACK: Sure!
(They run up to join him outside a secure metal door.)
DOCTOR: The night your space-junk landed, someone was hurt. This was where they were taken.
ROSE: What happened?
DOCTOR: Let's find out. Get it open.
ROSE: What's wrong with your sonic screwdriver?
DOCTOR: Nothing.
(Jack's blaster disintegrates the lock.)
DOCTOR: Sonic blaster, 51st century. Weapon Factories of Villengard?
JACK: You've been to the factories?
DOCTOR: Once.
JACK: Well, they gone now, destroyed. The main reactor went critical. Vaporized the lot.
DOCTOR: Like I said. Once. There's a banana grove there, now. I like bananas. Bananas are good.
ROSE: Nice blast pattern.
JACK: Digital.
ROSE: Squareness gun.
JACK: Yeah.
ROSE: I like it.
Please tell me yous are still talking about the gun graham said making me giggle at him
