"I actually am a chef," James spoke up. "And these lot are my minions."

"Oi!"

JJ smiled. "Great. Do you find that they will do anything for your cooking, or is it just me?" he asked.

"Yes. Us chefs could take over the world if we wanted to."

Harry rolled her eyes. "Oh great! Cut it out, you two."

"As long as you keep cooking," Jack stated, "we'll let you take over the world."

"Don't encourage him," the Doctor scolded with a slight smile.

"Jack, Doctor, you blow up this kitchen and I'll blow you up." James threatened with a steely look in his eyes. He looked at Martha. "Martha, try and keep them under control."

"I'll make sure they behave. "

JJ opened his mouth to say something but quickly shut it when a dark haired man stepped out of his office and looked at the new arrivals. "Who are you lot?" he asked gruffly.

"I'm James and this is Jack, Martha and... John," James quickly spoke up before the Doctor could say anything.

"I hope at least one of you is a chef," the man said.

"James is," Jack stated. "We're just the kitchen help. I didn't catch your name."

"My name is Carlos. I'm the head chef here. So where did you work, James?" the man, Carlos, asked, peering at James.

"Cardiff. Officers' Mess but before that I worked in Camberley in the Officers' Mess there."

"Hmm, are you one of Kennedy's lot?"

James smiled. "Yes."

"Good."

"Who's Kennedy?" Jack questioned, looking confused.

"You've been coming to our kitchen how many times? And you haven't learnt hardly any of the chefs' surnames?" James asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I've been busy," Jack answered with a grin.

"James, you'll be working with Lyall here," Carlos stated, "and the rest of you will be doing the veg prep, platewash, and potwash, as our KP is off today... And if there are any problems, I'll be in my office." With that said, Carlos turned and walked back to his office.

"Lyall?" the Doctor asked suddenly.

JJ raised his hand. "That's me. It's my surname." He froze at the look on the Doctor's face. "What is it?"

"Do you know what it means?"

"Does it matter?" JJ questioned.

"I need to change," James broke in. "Where do I go?"

"I'll show you," JJ offered, looking a little unnerved at the Doctor's expression. "Uh, the rest of you may want to change too."

"JJ's right. It will get messy," James pointed out. "Especially in the wash up areas."

"We'll be fine," the Doctor said, taking off his suit jacket.

Jack took off his long coat. "It'll wash out, right?"

"Don't say we didn't warn you."

Martha shook her head. "You guys. I'm going to change."

"I'll show you where we go," Harry offered with a smile.

"Thanks. I just need to pop to the... um, our transport and pick up a change of clothes."

"I'll come with you. I'll need my whites," James pointed out. "Won't be long."

"Don't do anything I wouldn't do," Jack called after them.

"Do that often, do they?" Danny asked with a shake of his head.

"Uh, guys, we're going to have a problem," Harry realised as she looked at JJ. "You and James look almost alike. If you're both decked out in chef whites, how are we going to tell the difference between you two?"

"Uh, their hair colour?" Jack stated. "Strawberry and vanilla, remember?"

"Not if they both have their hats on," Danny realised.

"We'll just have to call them by their names and see which one they answer to," the Doctor stated. "At least Danny and Jack are dressed differently."

"We're back!" Martha said from behind them. Martha's long hair was tied back and in her hands she held a change of clothing. James stood next to her and held a carrier bag in one hand and a pair of safety shoes in the other.

"Right, this way," Harry said with a smile, addressing Martha.

JJ knew that look on Harry's face. He knew that Harry would try and pump Martha for information. He looked at James. "Follow me."

Before James could follow JJ, the Doctor caught James' arm and whispered in his ear.

JJ just knew they were talking about him, but he pretended not to care or to be curious.

James pulled back and suddenly grinned. "I'll see," he muttered. "You be good now. And, no blowing up anything!"
