 “I’m sorry? I’m not sure what you mean by grounded.” there was a pause in albert’s voice. He truly didn’t get earth traditions. Why was he being grounded? He didn’t do anything except talk to his father’s future self. Was there any harm in that? His mother did it all the time, and she never got into trouble - yet when albert did it, he gets grounded — whatever that means.

 “Gronder is the French word for scold. I rarely had the opportunity to speak French, expect maybe when I had been invited by the Marquise de Rimbelle.” During the moment he pronounced this sentence, the Doctor managed to detach of the earlier frustration about his future self. It was little seconds, when, the enclose expression of the Time Lord light up. 

 It wasn't the first time that Albert was curious --- if he didn't express a few answers, he knew it was going to start over again. The Doctor hoped not to have this constant reminder of death --- but how could he avoid it? He should have died, be this new incarnation with the colored coat --- he wasn't. Androzani Minor wasn't a trip he planned to make --- never. He had a family. He had a companion whom he could protect from the plagues of time. He still had his working friend. Besides, Albert was different from all the companions he had in the TARDIS: he was his son. Someone he wanted to protect by all means, offering him the brightest future --- so he had to tell the truth.

 “I have a disagreement with myself.”
