Doctor and Russell are sitting quietly in his home, when Doctor clears his throat. "I... have a request to make of you, if I may."
Russell nods, and Doctor goes on: "I want you to kill me."
Russell doesn't look surprised, just faintly sad. He hesitates a moment, before getting up and going to the kitchen. He returns with a sharp kitchen knife in his hand.
Doctor - smiles, soft and entirely genuine. "Thank you, Russell. I truly do appreciate your kindness."
The boy (who can't be older than 14 in this memory) makes a complicated expression before stabbing Doctor in the neck. It doesn't take long for the memory, and presumably Doctor's life, to end.
