  • [extra scene]
  • Landlord: Can you help her?
  • The Doctor: Tell me what happens.
  • Landlord: It was just before the war. Eliza was dying... nothing could be done... until these creatures saved her. At first, it was a miracle.
  • The Doctor: And then, they needed food.
  • Landlord: Twenty years later, the creatures grew dormant.
  • Landlord: [voice cracking] Eliza was fading...
  • Landlord: [chokes back a sob, composes, then continues] then a vagrant broke into the house, fell asleep, and the lice... absorbed him! I was horrified! But Eliza grew strong, and I realized what I had to do. It is regrettable, but nobody really misses the students. They're simply assumed to have run away.
  • The Doctor: And you think your daughter is more important than all of them.
  • Landlord: Yes, of course! At this moment, you're concerned about your granddaughter, and you would do whatever it took to keep the person you love from death, wouldn't you?
  • The Doctor: Yes, I would.
  • Landlord: Then you understand why I must take this course of action!
  • The Doctor: Oh, I do. I would tear the sky apart. I would reduce the solar system to the tiniest cinder for anyone I love. But if I was about to do that, if I'd got to that point of desperation, then I would have one hope, one desire:
  • Landlord: Yes?
  • The Doctor: That someone would stop me.
