"He is worried about the people that may be hurt if his memories were to be abused," she counters sharply, frustrated that Andrew seems to be almost willfully misunderstanding them. Is his humanity really clouding his judgement that badly? "And so should you be, since they are your memories too, now."
But it does give her pause that he apparently thinks she doesn't care about him for his own sake. If he's really convinced that she's doing nothing but parrot the Doctor's opinions, then his stubborn defensiveness is suddenly slightly more understandable. "And I'll thank you not to correct me on my own motivations," she adds, though also more kindly than angry. "I am trying to look out for you. You saved my life, you destroyed the Daleks, and I care very much about both the personalities that you contain. I want you safe, and I want you happy."
