“I knew it!” Donna crowed triumphantly as she stepped through the TARDIS door. The snow beneath her feet crunched as she did a little victory dance while the Doctor gaped in astonishment.
“What?” he finally managed to blurt out. Donna grinned at him as he spun in a circle, looking around in disbelief. “What?” he repeated, his voice rising an octave.
Pulling her heavy jacket closer against the cold and snow, Donna grinned in delight.
“I told you that if you asked the TARDIS nicely, she’d take us to the right time and place,” she gloated. The Doctor’s face scrunched up in disbelief.
“But… but… this is impossible!” he sputtered. His eyes widened in shock as a figure in red emerged from a nearby building.
“Ho! Ho! Ho!” it chuckled as it grew closer.
“See,” Donna said smugly, smacking the Doctor on the arm, “I told you Father Christmas was real.”
