"By custom, with wisdom, and for honor I shall strike three times..." the Time Lord who was officiating the ceremony started, looking as if he hoped that someone would object before he'd finished.

"So, why are we doing this? Considering what happened the last two times..." one of the Time Lords who was watching the Doctor's Investiture ceremony asked the Time Lord who was standing next to him.

"Quickest way to get him to leave." the other Time Lord replied.

"So, how do you think he'll go?

"My money's on the amnesia." the other Time Lord replied as the Gallifreyan anthem started up. "With the odds I was given, I stand to make a killing."
