Rose herself is reduced to a twinge of indignance in the back of Cassandra's mind, a twinge that twinges a bit harder at that kiss, at Cassandra kissing her Doctor with her lips, there's something just not right about that, not fair, even.
It's not helped by the fact that Cassandra's barely listening to the Doctor's explanation.
"Nope... nothing odd... surgery... post-op... nano-dentistry... no sign of a shop... they should have a shop."
"No, it's missing something else."
Or maybe she's just pretending not to listen. Rose can't tell, it's all so muddled in here that she can't tell what she wants and what Cassandra wants and where that ends.
"When I was downstairs, those Nurse/Cat/Nuns were talking about Intensive Care. Where is it...?"
The Doctor congratulates her on a job well done, and that's all Rose can tell for a while, as Cassandra helps the Doctor search for the root of this mystery.
As long as someone's helping, that's the main point. She knows they're talking about Intensive Care, about finding it, and that's probably the right track.
There's a faint sense of triumph when they find where it's hidden, and she really should be angry about Cassandra feeling that, but it's so hard to feel anything, like one of those dreams where you're someone else and just swept along for the ride. That's all she is now, swept along for the ride as Cassandra and the Doctor head for the mysterious corridor that's apparently what passes for Intensive Care.
