“So it’s not so much the hair, specifically, as it is generally being clean?” The Doctor tilts his head to one side in an expression of deep, thoughtful consideration – as if this is some esoteric logical conundrum, and not a basic hygienic concern.

“But–” The Doctor manages to finish doing up his trousers, then comes to sit beside her on their bed. “Won’t it be different? I mean, she’s not the one having the baby, this time.”

Summary
After Scotland and Queen Victoria and the werewolf, they go to a planet called Dyrellis, where the sky is green and the particular chemical composition of the atmosphere makes the stars look like flakes of gold. The people there live high in the mountains, in structures without roofs or windows – the better to see the sky, they say.
A child there asks Rose, “where do you live?”, and she says, “in a time machine.”

Summary
Having rather mindlessly followed Rose over to her vanity, the Doctor finds himself staring blankly at a small Christmas tree, decorated with blinking multicolored lights, that is sitting just next to the mirror. “I didn’t know you were so–” He trails off, poking gingerly at the miniature tree, which somehow seems to make it blink even more vigorously. “–enthusiastic about Christmas.”

Summary
“So why d–don’t you like it?” Lee asks, about a half an hour later. He’s skating backwards in front of her, with his arms held loosely out in front of him, in case Donna needs someone to grab onto while she navigates the perils of the ice-skating rink.

Summary
The Doctor shoots Jack what is probably intended to be a scathing look. Unfortunately for him, any intimidating effect is mitigated by the absolutely ludicrous effect of the too-large flower crown sliding lower on his head. His ears, in the end, are the only thing that keep it from sliding off his head and down around his neck.

Martha wants to melt into the floor and disappear, but Mickey just keeps on, blunt and to-the-point as ever. “An’ then you took off running.”

Summary
The Doctor’s face is carefully neutral. “Rose, you have to understand–”
“You’re right,” she snaps, interrupting. “I do have to understand, because right now I don’t.” The sharp words feel good, solid and satisfying, in the same way a well-placed left hook or a solid, cracking slap might be. “So why don’t you explain it to me?”

“Besides,” he sniffs, stealing his glass back from Rose and taking a sip, “costumes are shockingly lacking in pockets, more often than not.”
“Yeah, well, try wearin’ women’s clothes sometime,” Rose says dryly. “That’s not just a costumes thing.”
