They're still the Doctor and Clara Oswald, but no longer need to be Mr. and Mrs. Doctor.

But that's just fine. They'll be the Doctor and Clara Oswald and navigate the rest of this mission together. Which is why she shifts focus, choosing to discuss a plan of action instead of pretending a roast will solve all their problems.
