' You're insane!' Donna yelled to the Doctor .
The Doctor and Donna were standing on the long grass on the banks of a turquoise coloured stream that was flowing over golden stones , on Barcelona . They were on the way back to the TARDIS, where Donna had waded into that stream , pretty fast , because a long black snake had followed her into it .
' Yeah.. I am' the Doctor contemplated to himself. The snake was pretty close to where she was standing , its beady eyes on her .
' Donna!' he called. ' The snake isn't going to pay attention to you, if you don't pay attention to him !' encouraging her. Donnas eyes were locked onto that snake , that looked pretty angry, that was now on a nearby branch of a leafy tree that was planted next to the stream.
' I'll catch you !' the Doctor called out to her. Donna looked at where he was standing , and then back at the snake , that was starting to hiss.
' Come on, Donna!' he called. ' Its not that far !' ' I'm not going to stand around all afternoon , waiting for you to get yourself out of a lake ' he added in an undertone.
' It's a snake ' Donna told him. She was frightened.
' Yes, I can see that !' he called.
' Its in the water now, looking at me !' Donna bellowed.
' I know , and that's why you need to get yourself out of there ! I'll pull you out ! He called back to her .
Donna looked at that slithering snake, and then back at the Doctor, his arms out , waiting to catch her. She started wading back , the snake still paying close attention to her movements , and the Doctor caught her, enveloping her into a hug.
' See, I knew you could do it !' he praised her , Donna dripping wet over his suit.
' You're the one who told me snakes cant swim !' offended , and slapped him across the cheek,
Yes, the Doctor had told Donna , who was afraid of snakes , that snakes couldn't swim.
Rule one. The Doctor lies.
