In the meantime, the Doctor is trying to enjoy a bowl of soup, with a small crowd of Gallifreyans watching him in awe. Gastron arrives in a military craft, asking that the Doctor drop his weapons. Instead of going with Gastron, the Doctor walks up and drags his heel through the sand, drawing a line; he then resumes eating his meal, unconcerned. Gastron reports this to Rassilon, who tries numerous different approaches to get the Doctor's attention - he sends respectful soldiers, the High Council, and even the War Council. | In the meantime, the Doctor is trying to enjoy a bowl of soup, with a small crowd of Gallifreyans watching him in awe.

Finally, Rassilon himself arrives with his personal guard; the Doctor only responds with a simple "Get off my planet". Rassilon does not take kindly to the Doctor's words, demanding he come with them. However, the Doctor still refuses to comply, forcing Rassilon to order his execution; he threatens them into complying by raising his Gauntlet.

To Rassilon's anger and surprise, they all miss; he demands an explanation from Gastron. He states that in the Time War, the first thing that was noticed about the "Doctor of War" was that he was unarmed, and that "For many it was also the last." Gastron throws his weapon and joins the Doctor. The rest of the firing squad follow suit. | ||
Raising his Gauntlet, Rassilon demands to know how many regenerations were [[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|granted to the Doctor back on Trenzalore]]; he intends to keep killing the Doctor until he runs out of regenerations. However, to Rassilon's surprise, reinforcements arrive, backing up the Doctor. The General repeats the Doctor's order to leave the planet, throws down his gun and joins the Doctor. Rassilon is then banished, with the Doctor stating that the High Council that served him will soon be following. The General then explains that Gallifrey came back into the universe several billion years later, give or take a star system or two; thus anyone banished from the planet has little choice in where to go. The General asks if he's gone too far with Rassilon's exile, the Doctor grimly warns that he's barely started. | Raising his Gauntlet, Rassilon demands to know how many regenerations were [[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|granted to the Doctor back on Trenzalore]]; he intends to keep killing the Doctor until he runs out of regenerations.

Now once more the Lord President of Gallifrey, the Doctor demands to know why he was imprisoned within his own confession dial. | Now once more the Lord President of Gallifrey, the Doctor demands to know why he was imprisoned within his own confession dial. The General explains that all Matrix predictions foresaw the birth of a Hybrid of both Time Lord and Dalek races. The Doctor explains that Time Lords always jump to conclusions; the Daleks would never allow anything to be half-Dalek, because of their insane idea of racial purity. However, he then refuses to explain further as he needs Clara to talk to, implying she knows of the Hybrid. They take him to the extraction room, where they pull Clara out of her timeline one second right before her death; she arrives on Gallifrey, confused. | ||
The Doctor explains that she's been frozen in that one moment of time they took her from, so that she doesn't have a pulse or need to breathe. Once the General explains why they saved her, the Doctor reveals it was all a ruse to save Clara and disarms the General. After asking what regeneration the General is on (his tenth), the Doctor wishes him luck before shooting him with his own gun. As the Doctor and Clara flee, Gastron checks on the General, who has regenerated into a female; she is quite glad to have returned to her original gender, which is free of male ego. | The Doctor explains that she's been frozen in that one moment of time they took her from, so that she doesn't have a pulse or need to breathe.
