Nardole scowled just as the TARDIS shook once more. “If there's any trouble, I'll get a message on this.” He pulled his psychic paper out of his pocket and showed it to him with the message, Leave me alone, and don’t say anything about Bill. “Oh, we're fine,” he said, waving a hand in his direction. “Sir, we're leaving Earth,” Nardole observed. As soon as they were inside, he entered coordinates and pulled the lever. The Doctor and Bill followed, making for the TARDIS. Suddenly, the door burst open again and Heather came out, her mouth open in a shrill scream. Spinning around, the Doctor shoved the door open and ran into the restaurant. ![]() She backed up quickly.Ī face was beginning to form, coming straight out of the mirror. Drops of water were forming on the mirror. She stepped towards the sink before freezing. He moved towards her, smiling, and she let out a laugh. It's supposed to blend in, but it's- it's broken.” He was beginning to realize that Bill still had her mother’s knack for making him feel like an idiot. “It's hidden itself as a box with 'pull to enter' on the front?” she pointed out. It sort of hides itself,” he said proudly. If you're from another planet, why would you name your box in English? Those initials wouldn't work in any other language!” He knew he was playing a dangerous game, but he couldn’t lie to her. “No, not specifically this one,” he admitted. She slipped her hands behind her neck and turned away. He was opposed to personal questions as a rule, but Bill was an exception. “Yes,” he replied, partly because he knew she would anyway and partly because he hadn’t meant to say no in the first place. “Um, how do I help?” He needed to know what kind of comfort, if any, she’d accept from him. As Bill crossed the room to lean against the wall by the door, he stepped into the room and moved towards the sinks. If she knew who he was, comforting her would be as easy as pulling her into a hug and whispering soothingly into her ear, but that wasn’t an option. It had been almost a hundred years since he had left her on Earth and now that he had to be less like a teacher and more like her father, he found he didn’t remember how. She was freaking out because he had been too focused on trying to impress her. She turned and rested her palms against the wall. She spun around to look at him, breathing heavily. He found her bent over a sink, splashing water on her face. He followed after her, pushing the door open and sticking his head into the room. Hurrying after her, he entered the building just in time to see her shove open the door to the ladies’ restroom and dart inside. He saw her vanishing into a nearby restaurant. He turned back to grin at his daughter but she was gone. He stepped aside to let her see the Sydney Opera House on the other side of the harbour. We've travelled to Australia,” he declared. ![]() “Oh, my God! Have we travelled in time?” she asked moving towards him. He turned to watch Bill coming out of the TARDIS and looking around in shock. The soft sound of water lapping against the shore was mixed with the calls of seagulls and the soft chatter of the people around. Sunlight flooded the room and he left the TARDIS, moving to lean against the rail overlooking the bay. He hurried over to the door and pulled it open. The TARDIS shuddered so he pushed the lever back up. He tugged the lever down and the Time Rotor began moving. “It's not interested in the vault, it's chasing us,” the Doctor declared, leaping towards the console.
