[The Doctor feels the settle tighten grip - and those brown eyes haven't cut eye contact. He is listening. Oh, that's what you saw in there. When Ten speaks it's still gentle]
Yes, you were born... and you did look into the schism. We both did. [A pause and small in hale] But beyond that - we both should know better to question what is the truth. That is raw space - one can make any truth they want out of it.
You really think - you really believe that billions of years of time and space was just waiting for you to be born? So that you could rule over all life in that?
Not to downplay us as Time Lords but do you believe just because we've mastered time travel that it gives us the right to do that? To decide who lives and who dies? Shouldn't we be better than that? Be an example. Something to strive for that they will never achieve.
What if another species got a hold of time travel? Does that give them the right?
[All of a sudden Ten looks and sounds like Four as someone does a very short qoute of a very long statement as a shadow of a Dalek is seen somehow behind The Doctor before disappearing. After all - guess what other species mastered time travel]
Do I have the right?
[Then changes back like nothing happened and eyes The Master like someone is listening and a very gentle thumbing of The Master's palm. A non verbal 'what is that?']
