"Did you miss me?"
"Damn you, Doctor." Ella scoffs then laughs.
The Sycorax Leader roars in fury and shes his whip at the Doctor, who simply catches the end and pulls it away from him and discards it.
"You could have someone's eye out with that!" The Sycorax Leader roars again and tries to attack the Doctor with his staff, but the Doctor snatches it off him and snaps it over his knee then chucks the broken pieces on the floor.
"You just can't get the staff. Now, you, just wait. I'm busy." The Sycorax Leader stares at him incredulously. The Doctor points at him warningly, then goes over to Mickey.
"Mickey! Hello! And Harriet Jones MP for Flydale North! Blimey, it's like 'This Is Your Life'!"
He turns to Rose now. "Tea! That's all I needed! A good cup of tea! Superheated infusion of free radicals and tannin. Just the thing for healing the synapses!" He glance at Ella and smiles.
He's now in front of her.
"Ella Ellington. Owner of the clever blue box? Really?" Which earns a chuckle from the happy girl.
"Now. First thing's first. Be honest. How do I look?"
She laughs slightly. "Hm, Let's see." She pretends to think which causes The Doctor's grin to widen and Rose's smile to brighten.
"You look fantastic."
The Doctor squints, not buying it and Ella laughs. "What? You do."
"Am I... ginger?"
"No, you're just sort of brown."
"Aww, I wanted to be ginger. I've never been ginger." He flail his arm and pout. Ella smiles at his childish behavior.
"And you, Rose Tyler, fat lot of good you were, you gave up on me, oh, that's rude." He said pointing at Rose.
"That's the sort of man I am now, am I? Rude. Rude and not ginger." He mumbles.
"I'm sorry, who is this?" Harriet said confused.
"I'm the Doctor."
"He's the Doctor." Rose emphasize.
"But what happened to my Doctor? Or is it a title that's just passed on?"
"I'm him. I'm literally him. Same man, new face, well, new everything."
"But you can't be."
"Harriet Jones. We were trapped in Downing Street, and the one thing that scared you wasn't the aliens... wasn't the war... it was the thought of your mother being on her own."
"Oh, my God."
"Did you win the election?" Harriet Jones smiles, rather pleased.
"Landslide majority."
"If I might interrupt!" They all spin around, having seemed to have forgotten him.
"Yes! Sorry! Hello, big fella!"
"Who exactly are you?"
"Well. That's the question."
"I demand to know who you are!"
The Doctor said imitating the Sycorax's rough voice "I don't know!" But he relaxes again.
"See, there's the thing. I'm The Doctor, but beyond that, I... I just don't know. I literally do not know who I am. It's all untested." He walks around continuing.
"Am I funny? Am I sarcastic?" Glancing at Ella and kept his gaze. She rolled her eyes knowing what he's hinting at.
"Sexy?" He winks at her as she found herself blushing and The Doctor continues.
