Fifteenth Doctor quotes from Doctor Who

We miss you so much, darling. But I'd pay for the whole moon to make you happy. Just look up at the sky and wave to us on the Homeworld. Happy Finetime, Lindy-Loo! And don't forget, you're only a Bubble away.

...who is that?

I told you, it's Mummy.

Hold on, I've seen her before.

Yeah, she's, like, she's the face of the ambulance on Kastarion III.

No, no, no, I've seen her somewhere else...

Now we can go out there to this planet, and we can fight it and tame it and own it. We'll be pioneers, just like our ancestors.

Or... you could come with us.

[turns towards him and Ruby] We could what?

Come with us!

Yeah, we helped you escape, didn't we? So we could get you out of here, in the blink of an eye.

I-- I have a ship, it's called the TARDIS. That blue box. It harnesses technology that makes it bigger on the inside than on the outside. I could take you all! I could carry you to the stars, I... could find you a home that is safe, and-- and clean, and everything you want.

[amused] But... It's-- We couldn't travel with you.

What? Wh-- Why not?

[to the Fifteenth Doctor] Because you, sir, are not one of us. I mean, sir, you were kind. But it was your duty to save me, obviously. I mean, screen-to-screen contact is just about acceptable, but in person? That's impossible.

Ay. You have a magic box? Seriously...

"Bigger on the inside"?

Excuse me, sir -- that's Voodoo. And it doesn't matter where we end up living, because it is our God-given duty to maintain the standards of Finetime, forever. Now thank you. And goodbye.

Ugh, I can't even...

I don't care what you think! Look, you can say whatever you want. You can think absolutely anything. I will do anything... if you just allow me to save your lives.

If you'll turn away, ladies? Before we're contaminated.

[desperately] BUT YOU WILL DIE OUT THERE! AND I CAN SAVE YOUR LIVES! NOW LET ME!

DAMN!

Brooding. Good look. Do you practice in a mirror? Bit more frown, maybe. Yeah? Like this. Yeah? Like this, really. Really, like this.

I didn't know the Dutchess employs a court jester.

Yeah, well I'm hilarious. And... you're kind of funny peculiar, standing here. Good vantage point. Keeping an eye out on the exits, like you're expecting trouble.

Are you?

Honey, I'm here for fun.

Then go and pursue your facile pleasures and leave me alone.

O-kay, rude! Lord...

Not a Lord.

Does "Not a Lord" have a name?

Rogue.

Nice to meet you. I'm the Doctor.

Just "the Doctor"?

Just "Rogue"?

Who did you lose?

What?

You lost someone.

How'd you know that?

Because I know.

There was... Yeah. We traveled together, we had fun. You know? And then a day came along, and at the end of that day... I lost them. What about you?

I lost everyone.

At the party, I saw you with that woman.

Mmm. My best friend.

Do you ever wonder, "Why keep going"?

Because we have to. We have to live each day, because they can't. You don't have to stay a bounty hunter, Rogue. You could travel with me! Oh, the worlds I could show you, Rogue...

And what if I like what I do? Would you travel with me?

That is quite an argument. Tell you what, when we both get out of this, let's argue across the stars...

I'd like that.

How long do they live for?

Chuldur?

Mm.

They have a lifespan of 600 years.

Good. Good. That's a long time to suffer.

There are as many dimensions as there are atoms in the universe. Don't even know his real name. Any...way! It is what it is, so onwards, fine, next. Off we go. Where shall we go? Anywhere!

Doctor, you don't have to be like this.

I have to be like this cos this is what I'm like. Onwards. Upwards. New horizons. Moving on. It's fine.

My father... He'd tell me stories about you when I was a kid. We'd sit there in the firelight, telling tales of the Doctor, his eyes shining. But he never ever mentioned a granddaughter.

I was a different Doctor back then, Kate. Great enigma. Still can't shake it off. I'm trying.

If you've got a granddaughter, that means you've got kids!

Well, not quite. Not yet.

What? You mean... you can have a granddaughter before a granddaughter?

Life of a Time Lord.

...Okay. The grandchild exists, and you've got the TARDIS, but you've never come back to see her. Why not?

You've seen my life. I bring disaster, Kate. Disaster. What if I go back and I ruin her?

For what it's worth, I think you bring joy.

But who am I?!

There is the Toymaker, the god of games. There is Trickster, the god of traps. There is Maestro, the god of music. There is Reprobate, the god of spite.

No, no, no! Get away from her! Don't touch her!

There is the Mara, the god of beasts, and the threefold deity of malice and mischief and misery.

Warning. Manifestation.

There are gods of skin and shame and secrets.

Doctor, she needs you!

There is Incensor, the god of disaster, and her children called Doubt and Dread. And standing on high is the mother and father and other of them all.

Whatever it is... here it comes.

For the god of all gods has returned. And his names are many. His name has been Set, and Seth, and Sithifer. And his one true name for evermore is... Sutekh!

...It was the wrong anagram.

Probable trap... 100%.

Mel, get away from her. Both of you, don't let her touch you!

Bailey, get back. Leave her alone.

You said you were a doctor! Why don't you try to help...?

Sutekh is the god of death, and by his hand, all creation shall fall into dust and ashes and ruin!

I bring Sutekh's gift of death... to all humanity.

Sutekh

I am Sutekh, the god of death. I am the night. I am the terror. I am the loss.

[approached by a robed, hooded figure] Mum?

Sutekh

And all life will perish at my hand! [laughs]

Did you think I was family, Doctor? I bring Sutekh's gift of death... for you, and for all in your tiny, vile, incessant universe!

Sutekh

[gripping the TARDIS] We meet again, my old friend.

Don't you dare...!

Doctor, what is that thing?

Sutekh. The Death of Ages. The Typhonian Beast. The greatest monster I have ever fought. [sees scenes from their previous encounter on his monitor] The time window has my memories too.

It's your life, Doctor. It's telling the story of your life.

A long time ago, in the England of 1911, Sutekh had been bound and imprisoned for all eternity, but he rose again, and I defeated him. I cast you into the Time Vortex, I sent you forward to your own death!

Sutekh

Instead, I found a home. I clung to your infernal machine, and for so many years, I hid. I have travelled with you for all this time, riding the spine of your ship, staring into eternity and evolving into my true godhood. Now I know every beat of the heart of your time machine, and I can bend it to my will. It will stand as my altar. The temple of my empire of death. Never yours again, Doctor, never. And I saw, inside the TARDIS, so many secrets. Her name.

Susan.

Sutekh

The perfect trap. I created an apparition of her universally. Every time we landed, on every single world, I birthed them all. My angels of death, now standing triumphant across the universe. Every living thing is an abomination. I am come to release them into blessed death - and I find that good.

Then I damn you, Sutekh! I damn you in the name of life itself! And I swear to you, with both the hearts of the last of the Time Lords, I will stop you! I will defeat you! And I will turn back death! And why... am I still alive? Killing me is your gift. And believe me, Sutekh, I'm an extinction event. So what is stopping you? Why is the god of death not killing me? What am I missing? I'll tell you a secret, Sutes. This feeling that you have now, this doubt... have you ever felt so alive? And doesn't it feel good?

Sorry, is that a toilet?

Is it a what?!

You've got a newspaper.

And a coffee. Who takes a coffee to the loo?

I d-dunno... Each to their own. Is somebody else in there?

N... Ah, yes. [The Doctor tuts, noting that he has taken two cups.] Habit. Never get used to them leaving. Here. Keep the mug. It's bigger on the inside.

H-How can there be two of you?

There aren't. He's the future. He's me after I get the code.

I'm not the future - he is the past. The future is this way. Come on.

No, no! How does this work? How do I get to be you?

The long way 'round.

Yes, but how long?!

You'll find out.

What do I do, where do I go?!

You will find out.

Oh, do you see?! That is why nobody likes you! You have to be mysterious all the time! That's why everyone leaves you. That is why you are always alone.

Who are you not phoning? You keep looking at the phone, it's very obvious.

Nobody.

Name?

Ruby. Ruby Sunday.

What's the problem with Ruby?

No problem. Just... gotta let people get on with their lives.

Yeah. You and me. Letting people get on with their lives. For Auld Lang Syne.

Ah-ha. It's the same object twice.

Do you mean it's literally the same diploma, like in a time-travel way?

Timey-wimey.

Timey-wimey?

Yup.

Am I six?

It is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.

Yeah, I know. Now get me home. 24th of May, 2025. My shift starts at 7.30am, thank you very much.

Yeah, but we don't need to rush, cos... Time Lord, time machine.

This is a time machine?

Boom! Because there is something already connecting us, Belinda, way beyond Robots. I have been to the future, and I have met your descendant on a planet far away, in the 51st century. Her name was Mundy Flynn.

Did she look like me?

Absolute match.

The 51st century? You're saying... 3,000 years' time? Is that supposed to be a coincidence?

Well, that is what I am worried about. [He scans her and uploads the results.]

Cos the genetic link is amazing. Is that just chance, or something more? Cos I can't help thinking, Bel, that maybe we are meant to be connected.

Like this is destiny? Is that what you say to all the girls? Is that what you said to Sasha? She trusted you, and she died. And you tested my DNA without even asking my permission. God. You're dangerous.

I'm sorry. Inexcusable. With both hearts, I apologise.

I am not one of your adventures. Now I'm asking you, Doctor, to do the right thing.

I will take you home.

Thank you.

Oh! Something is stopping us! Something is bouncing us off Planet Earth on the day that we left. But why?

Doctor, I told you. Get me home!

I am.

You are not!

Oh, this might be the long way round, Miss Belinda Chandra, but hold on tight. Because this is going to be quite a ride.
