Hello.

Hello.

Why are you sitting on the swing?

Why shouldn't I?

Because you're old.

Yeah that's true.

Tha-that, that it is very true.

My mum says I shouldn't talk to strange men.

Ah, your mum's right.

Are you strange?

[Chuckles]

Oh dear, I'm way past strange.

I think I'm probably incredible.

[Laughing]

Are you lonely?

Why would I be lonely?

Because you're sad.

Have you lost something?

No.

When I lose something, I go to a quiet place and I close my eyes, and then I can remember where I put it.

Good plan.

I'm always losing things.

I lost, my best pencil my schoolbag, my gran, and my mojo.

Your mojo?

I got it back though.

Hey that's good.

What did you lose?

A friend.

I met her twice before.

And I lost her both times, and now I don't think I'll ever find her again.

Have you been looking?

Yeah, everywhere.

That's sad.

It is a bit.

Hey is that your mum?

Yeah, I'd better go and see

if she's alright.

Yeah I think you better had

How are you gonna find her?

Well, the first two times I met her, I just sort of bumped into her so I thought maybe, if I just wandered about a bit,

I might bump into her again.

You know, l-l-like destiny... sort of.

That's rubbish.

[Chuckles]

I think it probably is.

Hey maybe I can find a quiet room, and have a good think about it instead?

That would be better, good bye.

Good bye.

Mister! I hope you find her again.

So do I.

Who was that?

I was talking to a sad man.

Look, Clara Oswald, what have I told you about talking to strange men?
