Overconfidence

You look beautiful! …considering. That you’re human. Overconfidence, this, and a small screwdriver. I’m absolutely sorted. Renewed? Have I? That’s it, I’ve been renewed. It’s part of the TARDIS. Without it I couldn’t survive. I’d call you a genius, except I’m in the room. As we learn about each other, so we learn about ourselves. If I grow to be half the man that you are, Clara Oswald, then I shall be happy indeed. Lots of planets have a North. Doctor no more. Oh, marvellous. You’re going to kill me. What a finely tuned response to the situation.

‘Timey’ what? ‘Timey wimey’? Two wrongs don’t make a left turn. That’s the trouble with regeneration. You quite never know what you’re going to get. You ain’t seen nothing yet! Kidneys! I have kidneys. And I don’t like the colour. Am I having a midlife crisis? Why are you pointing your screwdrivers like that? They’re scientific instruments not water pistols! Blimey, trying to make an Ood laugh… Kidneys! I have kidneys. And I don’t like the colour. I hate computers and refuse to be bullied by them.

Rose… before I go, I just want to tell you: you were fantastic. Absolutely fantastic. And do you know what? So was I! I need…I need…I need… fish fingers and custard! Jo, did you fail Latin as well as science? You were expecting someone else? Do you have to talk like children? What is it that makes you so ashamed of being a grown-up? Now would you stand aside before I shoot myself? A little gratitude wouldn’t irretrievably damage my ego. Come along, Pond! Oh, marvellous. You’re going to kill me. What a finely tuned response to the situation.
