That "Then I'll stop you" moment was a definite knickers-burner for me. I wouldn't have blamed Rose for jumping him right then and there while Harriet looks all flustered and embarrassed and kind of like she'd like to have a go after Rose.
The conversation with Mickey at the end simultaneously makes me respect him more for admitting he can't do it and want to hit him for passing it off on the Doctor. Every time someone brings up Rose's behavior in BT as an example of how poorly she treats Mickey, I come back to that scene and say, "But he bears responsibility for how their relationship went, too." He wasn't honest with her. But that's a rant for later in the season.
Nine and Rose were so amazing together. Is it any wonder I can't get over 'shipping them?
