Summary: He'd not expected her ever to use it.

Of course! She’d given him her phone when she’d left. He’d just dropped it on the console and promptly forgotten it; given the terms of their parting he’d not expected her ever to use it.

He’d behaved like a heel to her – he’d been shell-shocked still by what had happened at Canary Wharf, was missing Rose like nobody’s business, but that hadn’t excused his behaviour.

After a while they’d managed an uneasy truce. But she hadn’t been the one he’d wanted with him – and they’d both known it. Martha wasn’t Rose, couldn’t be Rose.

And that was their main problem.

Yeah, that was quite the train wreck of a companionship.

And that's an understatement!

I like Martha coming into her own at UNIT, though.

I had a(nother) plot!bunny bite me on this episode, so you may yet see more of Martha as she was here.
