While the Doctor was rubbish at taking the TARDIS where he wanted it to go, he was very good at negotiating. It was easy to be persuaded when a formidable Timelord had just broken your generator, not to mention made it out of the forest of wild aliens with his two companions alive. The Doctor brought the Lally-ampies, as I later learned they were called, to see the humans at Trident and Professor Kyle translated for them. It became obvious that the Ally-ampies didn't mind sharing some of their wild forest. In fact, they were actually hoping to have some clearings where they could try to grow and cultivate food.

But there had to be boundaries, and the Doctor drew up terms and made sure things were signed and notarized. In the end, the humans got some trees to help rebuild the Earth, and the Ally-ampies got to keep their lives and their forest. The Doctor got satisfaction, though it was tainted by deep sorrow he felt over girl who died. I never did learn her name or find out why she died. It wasn't unusual of the Doctor to leave a trail of bodies wherever he went. It was the price he paid.

Turlough got that one kiss from me. Still not sure why he wanted it, or how long it had been on his mind. We never talked about it. I like to think it was just a curious whim he took. Whatever it was, I didn't hate it completely. We pretended like nothing happened and the Doctor had no idea. I don't know what he'd think if he knew. He's so very stiff. And British. And human.
