Missing Scene from Face The Raven

INT. INFIRMARY. TRAP STREET – NIGHT 74
THE DOCTOR re-enters from another room in the infirmary,
having moved her body inside. He’s utterly numb.
But then he sees rueful, guilt-ridden ASHILDR at the chamber,
busy entering something on the screen. Everything suddenly
snaps back into focus.
THE DOCTOR
Not yet! Don’t send me yet.
(he turns, urgent)
Local Knowledge. Rigsy. Can I call
you Rigsy now?
RIGSY nods, emotional.
THE DOCTOR (CONT’D)
You’ll take her, won’t you? Take
care of her?
(Rigsy nods)
You’ll tell her family, her school.
You’ll remember her, you’ll –
He stops short with a horrible thought, rounding on ASHILDR.
THE DOCTOR (CONT’D)
You will not Retcon him again. Damn
your rules. She died for him and he
will want to remember that debt
until his very last breath.
RIGSY
Please? No one will hear about the
street, I promise.
ASHILDR is torn. The street is everything.
THE DOCTOR
ASHILDR! You owe Clara, and you owe
me. You owe me this much.
ASHILDR is pinned by his fury and his grief. Finally, she
nods. THE DOCTOR looks relieved.
ASHILDR presses one last thing on the chamber’s screen, and
THE DOCTOR’s cuff starts to make an eerie, wailing sound.
ASHILDR
I’m sorry, Doctor. I truly am.
