The Doctor says that most of the people around are local [[species]], and points out some: some [[Pan-Babylonian]]s, a [[Lugalirakush]], some [[Eukanian]]s, a [[Hooloovoo]] and an [[Ultramanta]]. He does a ritual greeting with a [[Terraberserker]] of the [[Cadonian Belt]], mentioning that they're not common. He says he forgot how much he liked it there — he'd been there a long time ago with [[Susan Foreman|his granddaughter]]. Clara's a bit shocked at this, but the Doctor's moving fast. She runs after him and he presents her with [[Exotic fruit (The Rings of Akhaten)|a glowing blue fruit]]. She takes a bite as he scans it with his screwdriver. She shakes her head at the taste. | The Doctor says that most of the people around are local [[species]], and points out some: some [[Pan-Babylonian]]s, a [[Lugalirakush]], some [[Eukanian]]s, a [[Hooloovoo]] and an [[Ultramanta]].

The place is crowded because of the [[Festival of Offerings]], and a creature comes up to Clara, barking and growling at her. The Doctor returns, barking himself to communicate, and introduces [[Dor'een]] to Clara. Dor'een had been asking if they want to rent a moped. Clara asks what it costs and the Doctor explains that they don't use money here. They use objects of sentimental value as currency; "[[Psychometry]]. Objects [[psychic]]ally imprinted with their history." She dislikes the idea, thinking it's terrible to have to give up something important to you in trade. The Doctor says it's better than bits of paper, so she says that he should pay, as someone who's a thousand years old should have something that he cares about. The Doctor pulls out his [[the Doctor's sonic screwdriver|sonic screwdriver]], then shakes his head and puts it back. | The place is crowded because of the [[Festival of Offerings]], and a creature comes up to Clara, barking and growling at her.
