(THUD)

Oh, Doctor, soon I will have

all your lives.

It wasn't the same guy!

It was the guy who stole the body.

He was in a shroud

with a JD tag on his toe.

I don't think the Second Coming

happens here.

You think he's gonna go

to a better HOSPITAL?!

Know what? I'm going home.

Pete, stop by Psychiatric

and get MORE mind-altering drugs.

OK, sure.

Curtis, can you get SFPD? Some

creep's made off with the John Doe.

Don't call the police yet, Curtis.

Grace, can you give me some time?

Time...

..time!

..time!

We don't need to advertise

our mistakes, do we?

(GRACE) What are you saying?

Two hearts. No wonder you got lost.

Exactly.

Or maybe this really WAS

a double exposure.

In either case,

we can't afford to lose you.

- What are you doing?

- What I should have last night.

Am I having a bad dream?! I lose

a patient and then I lose his body

and you destroy the proof...

That you were careless!

- NO! I didn't know...

- He died because you got lost!

You BET I did!

The guy had two hearts!

Without records, no-one need know

he was even here.

- You can't do this!

- Let me take care of it, Grace.

NO!

Believe me, I know

what is best for all of us.

But what WAS he?

How can we learn from him?

I've got to find his body!

I have to keep this hospital open.

No! No. If you do this...

..I'll quit.

You don't mean that.

Hold the elevator.

Puccini!

We've met before.

- I don't think so.

- Yes, I think so. I know you.

You're tired of life

but afraid of dying.

There was music - Madame Butterfly!

You were there!

I SAW you last night!

Wasn't me!

I don't know who I am,

but YOU know me!

- Please go away!

- You're my only hope!

- Do you know who I am?

- I don't CARE who you are!

You must help me! You're a doctor!

Well, my oath just expired!

Stand back!

ARGH! GET OUT!

It's my hearts!

(HORN BLARES)

There's something in here!

It can't be!

WHAT is this?!

Please...please, I have two hearts!

You have to get me out before they

kill me again! Please, help! DRIVE!

Hey, Bruce, why the shades?

I had a bad night.

Did you want something?

Where's the gunshot wound

I brought in?

He died.

Oh, yeah. Well, I've got orders

to move his body.

Where is it? His body?

Haven't you heard?

The body's gone. Stolen.

OK, where are his things?

Kid that brought him in took them.

The Asian child.

The Asian child (?)

Bruce, you're sick!

Thank you.

- Are you all right?

- Better, yes.

Now that I don't have primitive

wiring in my system.

Primitive.

I don't believe it!

- He's taken all his stuff!

- Who?

- Brian!

- Your boyfriend?

EX-boyfriend!

Have a seat.

I want to listen to your heart.

Hearts...

- plural.

- Right! Right...

He's taken the sofa!

Come on, follow me.

Now I'm remembering more!

Lovely view.

Maybe you have amnesia

brought on by shock.

Maybe. I can't remember.

Ah, Da Vinci! He had a cold

when he drew that.

- You're still fibrillating badly.

- No, I'm not. Here.

Puccini... I REMEMBER!

I was with him before he died!

Name dropper.

No, I was! I was, I was.

Oh, my God!

See, no echo.

He didn't finish Turandot.

Alfano finished it based

on his notes. It was so sad.

You have TWO hearts!

Who ARE you?

The anaesthetic almost destroyed

the regenerative process.

Oh, yeah...right...

I'm gonna get a syringe,

take some blood.

No, no, Grace, Grace...

I have 13 lives.

Please! You're telling me

you've come back from the dead?

Yes.

Dead stay dead.

You can't turn back time.

Yes, you can.

I'm not a child!

Don't talk to me like I'm a child.

Only children believe that crap.

I...am a doctor.

But it was a childish dream

that made you a doctor.

You dreamt you could

hold back death. Isn't that true?

(HE HUMS THE PUCCINI ARIA)

Don't be sad, Grace.

You'll do great things.

Hello?

(WHISTLES)

Who's there?

The guy from the ambulance?

Bruce, don't scare me like that.

This place is freaky enough.

Chang Lee, that's your name,

isn't it?

Well, I never!

The TARDIS really likes you.

- What are you taking about, Bruce?

- I am not Bruce.

It took me a minute with talking

and walking, but I am NOT Bruce.

I am merely...inside his body.

Oh, yeah (?) So, who are you really?

Give me the bag.

Yes.

Where is he?

The man you stole these from,

where is he?

He's dead.

HE'S NOT DEAD!

He has stolen MY body.

And I will die

unless we bring him back here.

You will help me do that,

understand?

What's in it for me?

You get to live.

Mmm, not bad. Did these belong to...?

Brian? Yep.

Keep 'em.

Thank you.

How's my blood?

It's not blood.

Mmm, perhaps if I walk in them,

they'll stretch a bit.

Good idea. Let's go for a walk.

(GRACE) Maybe you're the result

- of a genetic experiment.

- I don't think so.

But you have

no recollection of family?

No. No, wait! I remember I'm

with my father, lying on the grass,

on a warm Gallifreyan night.

Gallifrey! Yes! This must be

where I live. Where is that?

Never heard of it.

What do you remember?

A meteor storm!

The sky was dancing with lights.

- Purple, green, yellow! YES!

- What?

These SHOES!

They fit perfectly!

You know, this was all mine

until he stole it.

He should never

have been allowed here.

I was told he was dead.

That body HAD died.

He's regenerated into another one.

My body can do this 12 times,

- but he's taken most of mine.

- What for?

- Unspeakable crimes.

- Like what?

- Ghengis Khan.

- What about him?

- That was him.

- No way!

Yes, way! Look, I'm no saint,

but he is evil.

And he's doing it all with MY body!

I was about to stop him

when we got here.

What do you want, Lee?

What do you mean?

If you could have anything -

ANYTHING - what would it be?

I don't know. A million bucks!

Only a million?

- OK, two million.

- Think bigger.

- A BILLION!

- What would that buy you?

- Power.

- Power.

Gold dust?

You get the rest

when I get my body back. Deal?

Deal!

Let me show you around.

Go ahead.

How did I do that?

I told you. The TARDIS likes you.

The Cloister Room.

- Awesome!

- Isn't it?

Let me show you.

Here is the Eye of Harmony,

the heart of this structure.

Everything gets its power

from here.

How can it help us?

As you know, it used to belong

to me. Now it belongs to him.

If we can open the Eye,

we WILL find him.

Cool! So, are you gonna open it?

No, you are. Can you pull this

reflector staff from its mooring?

This thing?

You can do it.

Yes!

Good! Now...

look in the beam of light.

If the TARDIS really likes you,

the Eye will open.

- Why don't you look?

- You pulled the staff out.

(LEE MOANS)

What is it?!

Something's happening!

Something's happening! God!

Oh, my God!

I KNOW who I am!

I am the Doctor!

Good! Now, do that again.

Wow! There's the guy

I took to hospital.

The Doctor's past life.

The Doctor?

That's what he calls himself.

Doctor (!)

The new Doctor.

He's so young. Hmm...

Fascinating!

See that?

That's the structure

of the human eye.

The Doctor is half HUMAN!
