Who are you?
My notation is... Maestro.
But... what are you?
I am music.
“The Devil's Chord”
In this episode: Fifteenth Doctor (2), Ruby (1)
Who are you?
My notation is... Maestro.
But... what are you?
I am music.
In the past, right now, I live in a place called Totter's Lane. 1963, I parked the TARDIS in a junkyard, and I lived there with my granddaughter, Susan.
Oh...!
Okay?
Your what?
My granddaughter.
Susan?
We could go and have a look, but y'know... timelines, [mimics explosion]
Well, y-- you've got children?
I did have -- I will have. Time Lords get a bit complicated.
Yeah, but you've got a granddaughter! Like, now? Like, today? Back in our time? My time. Gah! Where is she?!
I don't know.
How do you not know?
Time Lords were murdered. Genocide rolled across time and space like a great big cellular explosion; maybe it killed her, too.
Doctor! God...
Can you find it? The lost chord? Are you enough of a genius?
Oh, I would never call myself that, Maestro. But I have lived. And I have loved. And I can only smile like this because I have lost so much. I've experienced everything. Every single thing. And if that's where music comes from... I can find the chord to banish you.
