I've been telling Sir Colin that without the proper authority, I will not launch a raid on someone's private property!
Waffle! Waffle, waffle, waffle!
What do you do for an encore, Doctor?
I win.
You humans have got such limited, little minds. I don't know why I like you so much.
Because you have such good taste.
....That's true! That's very true!
You're a doctor, yourself?
Well sort of, yes.
How do you do. Tell me, where did you qualify, if I may ask?
A place called Gallifrey.
Gallifrey. I've not heard of it. Perhaps it's in Ireland.
Probably.
[Professor Watson is amazed that the missiles have had no effect.]
Any being that can exist, let alone thrive, inside a nuclear pile is hardly likely to be deterred by a few primitive missiles.
But they're the most powerful missiles we have!
On your standards, perhaps. I think we should try much older weapons.
Like?
Speech? Diplomacy?
What?
Conversation? Come on, driver, let's go!
[Sarah has caught up with the Doctor after he told her to stay behind and wait in safety.]
I worry about you.
[After Sarah has outlined why she should be allowed to accompany him.]
But . . .
Ah, but what?
I worry about you.
So? Be careful.
We'll both be careful.
(angrily) Damn it! The aliens must have left this planet half dead!
[Sarah having to leave the Doctor]
Don't forget me.
Oh, Sarah. Don't you forget me.
Bye, Doctor. You know, travel really does broaden the mind.
Yes. Until we meet again, Sarah.
[The Doctor bends down to avoid the detection of the guard.]
I say, is something the matter?
No, no, just a twinge in the knee.
Well, if you will lead such a rackety life... Have you had a facelift?
Several, so far.
What is the Master like on mathematics?
He's brilliant, absolutely brilliant — he's almost up to my standards.
Why have you brought me here?
As a scapegoat for the killing of the President! Who else but you, Doctor? So despicably good. So insufferably compassionate... I wanted you to die in ignominious shame and disgrace!
Doctor, my congratulations, you're just in time for the end!
You're insane! You're insane, do you hear me? You're releasing a force that nothing can stop!
Take the rod. You could take it with you to your grave, except that none of you will need a grave!
If you undo that, you'll die as surely as any of us!
You can do better than that, Doctor. Even in extremis, I wear the Sash of Rassilon!
Yes! And the president was wearing it when he was shot down! The sash won't protect you! It's damaged!
You lie!
As I believe I told you long ago, Doctor, you will never amount to anything in the galaxy while you retain your propensity for vulgar facetiousness.
Yes, sir. You've said that many times, sir. May I go, sir?
Certainly you may, preferably with the utmost expedition. [To Spandrell] Perhaps you will see that the transduction barriers are raised.
Yes, sir.
Oh, Doctor?
Sir?
Nine out of ten.
Oh... [chuckles bashfully] Thank you, sir.
[Leela meets the Doctor for the first time]
The evil one!
Well nobody's perfect but that's overstating it a little!
Would you like a jelly baby?
It's true then. They say the Evil One eats babies.
Now drop your weapons, or I'll kill him with this deadly jelly baby!
Kill him, then.
What?
Kill him, then.
I don't take orders from anyone.
