The return of FInn the cat!

Donna and the Doctor stared at Finn as he rolled across the dinner table in the TARDIS' kitchen. The kitten was quietly chasing a couple small brown balls.

"He's awfully quiet, isn't he?" the Doctor asked as he leaned toward the table in his glasses and scholar face.

"You're complaining?" Donna asked.

"No," the Doctor agreed. "No, of course not."

"He's so cute, though," Donna observed.

"Really?" the Doctor tilted his head. "'Cute'?"

"Just because you're jealous," Donna smirked.

"Oi!" the Doctor waved at her, running out of the kitchen after his companion.

"What?"

"I'm not. . ." the Doctor panted. "Jealous."

"Of course not," Donna agreed. "Where are we going?"

"How about the Vegas Galaxies?" the Doctor offered, already pressing buttons and flipping levers.

"Sounds good," Donna clutched a beam as the TARDIS started shaking. "Can we get some figs, though, first?"

"Figs?" the Doctor paused and was almost flung to the floor. "What do you need figs for?"

"To calm Finn down," Donna explained. "Just to have them, in case we need to occupy him."

The Doctor flipped another switch and the TARDIS stopped for a nanosecond (or something like that) before making a U-turn and going the other way.
