Martha reboots the monitor by typing Atillo into a hiragona keyboard.

"We lost picture when that thing flared up. Doctor, are you there?", Thea asks.

"Receiving, yeah. He's inside.", The Doctor reports.

"And still alive?"

"Oh, yes."

"But he should evaporate. What sort of a man is he?", Yana asks.

"Impossible.", Juliet grins, repairing the word she heard in her head.

"I've only just met him. The Doctor and Juliet sort of travel through time and space and pick people up. God, I make us sound like stray dogs. Maybe we are.", Martha sighs.

"They travel in time?", Yana hears voices whispering in his head.

"Don't ask me to explain it. That's a Tardis, that box thing. The sports car of time travel, he says.", Anastasia adds.

"That's a Tardis. Time travel. That's a Tardis. That's a Tardis.", He hears Martha's words, although she sounds very far away.

"When did you first realise?", The Doctor questions him.

"Earth, 1892. Got in a fight in Ellis Island. A man shot me through the heart. Then I woke up. Thought it was kind of strange. But then it never stopped. Fell off a cliff, trampled by horses, World War One, World War Two, poison, starvation, a stray javelin. In the end, I got the message. I'm the man who can never die. And all that time you knew.", Jack replies.

"That's why I left you behind. It's not easy even just looking at you, Jack, because you're wrong."

"Thanks.", Jack's laugh is both bitter and sarcastic.

"You are. I can't help it. I'm a Time Lord. It's instinct. It's in my guts. You're a fixed point in time and space. You're a fact. That's never meant to happen. Even the Tardis reacted against you, tried to shake you off. Flew all the way to the end of the universe just to get rid of you.", The Doctor explains.

"So what you're saying is that you're, er, prejudiced?"

"I never thought of it like that."

"Shame on you.", Jack comments.

"Yeah."

"Last thing I remember, back when I was mortal, I was facing three Daleks. Death by extermination. And then I came back to life."

"What happened?", He asks.

"Rose."
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
"I thought you'd sent her back home."

"She came back. Opened the heart of the Tardis and absorbed the time vortex itself.", He remembers the memory.

"What does that mean, exactly?"

Yana is crying.

"No one's ever mean to have that power.", The Doctor says.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
"If a Time Lord did that, he'd become a god. A vengeful god. But she was human."
