"But what about that last time, with the Void open, and the two Earths connecting. You said you had to stay behind and open the Void on one side, but you also said it'd close itself. That you didn't have to do anything special to it once you'd opened it. So all you really would've had to do is wait til every last Dalek got sucked in and then, at that last second, pushed one of those yellow button transport thingies and then you'd have been with me, in person, and not orbiting a sun just to give me one last look at what I'd never have again."
