K-9's log. "This is the pits. It was bad enough when we landed on worlds with lots of stairs or that jungle planet, and I had to stay in the ship. Or when I was out of commission for repairs. Now we're on Earth, the Doctor's favorite planet, in Paris, one of his favorite cities. Hardly any problems with stairs and not a jungle in sight. But do I get to roam around the city, use the underground, get my picture painted, chat with the Eiffel Tower, visit the Louvre, or tangle with a creature who's been splintered into 12 segments across human history? Oh, no. Doctor Master and Romana claim I'd be a 'dangerous anacronism'. Robotic dogs were not accepted members of society in 1979. DANGEROUS ANACRONISM!!! Of all the people to talk, those two should not be telling ME about dangerous anacronisms! Fine. I'll show them. I'll only speak through my secondary voice, the one they hate, until they apologize over this. And I don't care if it takes until season 18. The John Leeson voice is on strike!"

Romana's log. "The Doctor is taking this very badly. So I put a component of the ship back into the ship, and we got a distress call. That's what the distress call component is for - to pick these things up. But he gets so tetchy. It's not like we're going to land on a jungle planet run by a power mad woman bent on controlling all metal, is it? K-9's not behaving much better, of course. He only seems interested in talking in the secondary voice he knows we don't like. Haven't figured out why yet."
