The Doctor finds another survivor of the Time War.
The Doctor finds him on an out-of-the-way world, far from what had once been the front lines of the Time War.
Back in the TARDIS, he tells his story; of being found, wandering, as a child. Of the fob-watch he never properly noticed until his twentieth birthday. About opening it, and remembering everything: a childhood shadowed by war, his mother risking execution as a deserter in order to bring him to a safely forgotten world. Her face as she kissed him good-bye and activated the chameleon arch.
“She wanted to keep me out of the path of the Oncoming Storm.”
