Martha brings him his staff from his first incarnation and he tells her a story about (when Susan, Barbara, and Ian were traveling with him) how he saved a pharoah's life with that staff. He then tells how and when he dropped Ian, Barbara, and Susan off.

The strange man chuckles and says, "If only that were true". He then reveals (whilst talking to himself) how he will force the Doctor to regenerate so that he can steal the Doctor's remaining incarnations. The Doctor collapses and tells Martha that one of his hearts has stopped; he then collapses into unconsciousness. | ||

The implication in this statement is that Martha Jones is either the first companion to become aware of all 10 incarnations, or that the Doctor believes that anyone else (companion or Time Lord) who is aware of it is now dead ([[The Brigadier]] has met the first eight Doctors, but he never encountered the Ninth and has to date only met the Tenth in another comic). | * The Doctor indicates that "no one alive" knows about all nine of his past incarnations.
