Rick Blaine
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Rick was a character from the movie Casablanca.
In the movie, despite a common wish of the audience, Rick sends Elsa to the aeroplane with her husband. (PROSE: Deceit)
Behind the scenes
The last name of the character, Blaine, is not stated in the novel, but he is recognizable beyond doubt. The novel also misspells the name of Rick's love interest. In the movie, it is Ilsa, not Elsa.
