[George sounds pained. Very, very pained.]

I've tried the door to the CES from this side. I'm afraid it's not gone well.

It might have been a more useful one. I only thought: as it had worked on Mr. Spinola's door...

Cheer up George, this probably just means that whoever's in charge doesn't want you in.

That's not necessarily cheering, Doctor.

It isn't?

Nobody likes to feel unwanted.

Don't worry, you're wanted by me. Just not the Admiral.

I do appreciate your saying so.

You're welcome, George.

I would offer you a jelly baby or ask if I can ice your shoulder, but unfortunately I'm trapped in the CES.

Do take care of yourself in there, Doctor. You may need to ration those jelly-things.

Don't worry, I'm sure my captivity won't last for long.

I do wish I were as sure.

You should be. They're obviously keeping us in here for a purpose. When whoever is in charge finds out what that purpose is, they'll let us go!
