This is presumably at the end of the episode, the evil alien force in Yamaku has been defeated, Misha has been killed, Mutou has done a Noble Sacrifice, and its time to go.
"Hey umm Mr. Alien," Amy, Rory, and the Doctor turned. Rin was there looking at the trio about to get back into the TARDIS.
"Oh, hello Rin," the Doctor said. "Umm, shouldn't you be at your friend's funeral?"
"I'll go soon," the girl asked calmly. "Anyway, I had a question before you go."
"Alright."
"You're aliens right? I mean...for real?"
"Uhh, just him," Rory said point at the doctor.
"Yeah, he and I are from Scotland," Amy said.
"Oh. Okay, but you're an alien right? And that's your spaceship."
"Yes, yes it is," The Doctor said. He was still smiling that same smile he had when he realized where he was. Nervous, unwilling to reach his eyes, slightly afraid.
"So you have all sorts of fancy stuff in there?"
"Yes."
"Do you have anything in there that could fix this place?" She said calmly.
The Doctor's mouth opened and closed. He tried for a second to look at Amy and Rory but he didn't dare, he knew what their faces would look like, but he wasn't the kind of person who could just look away, so he had no choice. No choice but to look into Rin's eyes. What could he say? 'No?' That would be easy wouldn't it? But it would also be a lie. 'Yes, but it wouldn't work on humans?' Better, and Amy and Rory would believe it but he still wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
The truth came to his mind in the voice of the Dream Lord, no...HIS own voice. "Yes Rin, I have all sorts of gadgets and cures in my little box to fix almost all of you children and even though you are all brave, kind, lovely, and the best that humanity could ever hope to be I will never give them to you. Because you're not supposed to have them. Because you're all supposed to be like this. Because, even though no one in the world deserves it more than you, I'm going to get into my little box and fly away. Never to see you again after coming here, upsetting your peaceful lives, letting one of you brilliant, wonderful, shining children die and making one of the greatest teacher's I've ever had the honor to know kill himself. I can help you all, but I'm not going to...just because."
"I mean, you can fly up and fix the weather station right?" Rin pointed with her knee at the top of the roof where the little antenna covered station that monitored the weather was. It had been smashed in the attack.
"We'd have to send away for it to be repaired and it would take months before we got a replacement, and then another month to install it. Can you fix it?"
The Doctor just stood there looking at Rin for what seemed to be a long time. Then, without saying a word, he nodded, hugged the small child, and went back into the TARDIS.
Amy and Rory looked at each other, waved goodbye to Rin, and entered the blue box. Rin watched calmly as the TARDIS vanished, then she went to rejoin the others.
Yamaku is a wonderful school. It has excellent facilities, a caring and well educated staff, a hospital nearby, and every day, they have perfect weather. Beautiful sunny days with clear skies, light spring rains that seem to just be over the gardens, white christmases with not too much snow, and fall afternoons that seem to be out of a Robert Frost poem.
Some people wonder exactly why the weather is so good. Some say the spirits like the place, some say it's karma, Rin says it's the result of aliens and the weird antenna they put on top of the school.
