The Doctor's head tilts at the first name, but when Mary gives her other name, the Doctor's entire face lights up. "Oh! You're-" He waves his hand. "Mary Read! Oh! Oh, you're brilliant! I am so pleased to meet you! Never happy where you were, took to the seas, despite everything. Following a whole new Captain Jack around." That slight paternal tone like this explains everything. He takes Mary's hand and shakes it energetically.
Pause, and the Doctor's face briefly falls like he's thought of something. "Jack...is a new Captain Jack, isn't he? Please tell me that Calico Jack wasn't Jack Harkness this entire time..." Son, I am disappoint.
"Not that there's anything wrong with you being here! It's brilliant!" Hunh, either that, or this might explain some of the mysterious circumstances around Mary Read's death in prison. Was Jack involved in a time travel jailbreak? Wouldn't put it past the man.
"So- how, you and Jack? How'd you get to Cardiff, of all places?"
