When he saw the [[Tenth Doctor]] struggling for air he let him into the car, and the Doctor told him that he was searching for his companion [[Martha Jones]]. He told the Doctor about the Motorway and how they had spent twelve years travelling five miles. He was later released from the Motorway when the [[Face of Boe]] opened it up.
