[Storage Room]
Rose sighs, "Okay, so he's vanished into thin air. Why is it always the great-looking ones who do that?"
"I'm making an effort not to be insulted," the Doctor scoffs.
She grimaces and tries to correct herself, "I mean, men."
"Okay, thanks, that really helped," he says, rolling his eyes.
"No," Ally tells him, and they both look over to her, "You're quite handsome. Jack's all humany-looking and smells like wilting flowers... or I assume that's what they smell like."
Smirking at that, the Doctor looks at Rose and raises his eyebrows, "Ha!"
The radio crackles into life before Rose can respond, and Ally frowns at it. It's not connected.
"Ally? Rose? Doctor? Can you hear me? I'm back on my ship," Jack calls out, "Used the emergency teleport. Sorry, I couldn't take you. It's security-keyed to my molecular structure. I'm working on it. Hang in there. Ally, you can come up now if you want."
"I'll stay until you get them out," she informs him.
"How're you speaking to us?" the Doctor asks.
"Om-Com. I can call anything with a speaker grill."
The Doctor crosses his arms, "Now there's a coincidence."
Ally knows very well that it's not.
"What is?" Jack asks.
"The child can Om-Com, too," the Doctor tells him.
Rose asks, "He can?"
The Time Lord nods, "Anything with a speaker grill. Even the TARDIS phone."
Ally wonders what his TARDIS looks like. Whether or not she's seen it before. Did they travel together or did she stay on the planet or vice-versa?
"What, you mean the child can phone us?" she asks, concerned.
"And I can hear you. Coming to find you. Coming to find you," the child calls out playfully.
"Doctor, Ally, can you hear that?" Jack asks them.
"Loud and clear." the Doctor tells him.
Ally rubs her neck again and sighs, "Unfortunately."
"I'll try to block out the signal," Jack sighs, "Least I can do."
"Coming to find you, mummy," says the child.
Jack asks, "Remember this one, Rose?"
Moonlight Serenade starts playing through the radio.
Rose smiles and sways, "Our song."
Both Ally and the Doctor roll their eyes at this. She watches him as he starts fiddling with his Sonic before closing in on the window and pointing it to the concrete. Ally frowns when nothing happens. Is he trying to set up a pattern? The crosactic setting for stone would work on it.
Rose goes over to the wheelchair to relax while waiting on Jack.
"What are you doing?" Ally asks the Doctor.
"Trying to set up a resonation pattern in the concrete, it'll loosen the bars," he informs her, not looking away from the wall.
She shakes her head, "Crosactic setting 2502B."
He pauses and turns to her, face blank, "What?"
"You heard me," she shrugs, "Just try it."
He narrows his eyes before resetting the sonic and pointing it toward the wall. A large crack forms. He drops his arm to his side, just staring at it. He feels like he can't breathe.
