Leela quotes from Doctor Who

Leela

There was a sort of glow all around you!

There was? Well, a kind of St. Elmo's fire; it happens at sea.

Leela

St. Elmo's?

Yes, it causes a sort of halo effect around the masts of ships.

Leela

Halo?

Why do you keep repeating everything I say? You're not a parrot, are you?

Leela

Parrot?

[incredulous] Yes. A parrot's a bird that repeats things. Move over.

Leela

[sarcastic] Move over!

That's it!

Leela

I thought you said there was nothing wrong!

Well, there isn't anything wrong. Well, there isn't anything important wrong, but I've got to check, haven't I?

Leela

I can still feel it.

Come on, old thing. come on.

Contact has been made.

I said, 'I'm perfectly alright, thank you, Lalee'..

Leela

But my name is 'Leela'.

I know your name. "Leela"...

Leela

What happened?!

I must have had a bot of a shick...

Leela

Eugh, what's that?

That is why my brain is so much superior to yours!

What do you know about brains, anyway?

Leela

All right, all right, don't get excited!

I'll get excited if I want to! It's my brain! I'll tell you something about brains-- do you want to know something?

Leela

Not much.

I'll tell you anyway. Someone once tried to build a machine as efficient as the brain. The only problem was, it would have had to be bigger than London-- do you remember London?-- and powered by the entire European grid. And that was just a human brain. Mine's much more complex.

[Slapping dangling bits of his brain material together in desperation] OW!

Leela

What did you do?

I think I told them my liver was disintegrating, I think.

Hahahaha! That was a good idea of mine, K-9, to blow it up!

Affirmative!

Leela

What do you mean, it was a good idea of yours? It was my idea!

What was?

Leela

To blow it up!

Then you should be feeling very happy.

Leela

What will happen?

I wish I knew.

Leela

Can we get free?

That depends on this misunderstood, unmanagable old machine!

Leela

There's a guard... I shall kill him!

No.

Leela

Why not?

You'll upset the dog.

Leela

He came armed and silent.

You must have been sent by providence.

No, I was sent by the council to cut the verges.

Leela

Your council should choose its warriors more carefully.

Check, Master.

What?

"Machine mind" computes mate in six moves.

Rubbish!

Leela

Doctor!

Leela, keep still!

Leela

But Doctor--

And shut up, I'm trying to concentrate.

Your move, Master.

I know it’s my move, don’t flash your eyes at me.

Wrong square.

What?

Your king, Master. Wrong square.

Really, are you sure?

Affirmative.

Leela

Doctor, can I speak now?

What? All right, if you must. What is it?

Leela

Well, the column has stopped moving.

So?

Leela

It is not important?

WHAT?! We might have gone right through the time spiral, why didn’t you tell me?

Leela

I tried to, but you wouldn’t let me.

You didn’t!

Leela

I did!

You didn’t!

Leela

I did!

You didn’t!

Leela

I did!

Leela

These "taxes"; they are a sacrifice to the Gods?

Taxes are much more painful.

Leela, I think you and I should take a-- a W-A-L-K.

Leela

A W-A-L-K...?

Wuh-Ah-Ll-K!

Walk, mistress.

Leela

I know!

Ready, master.

No no no, you're not coming. You stay here.

Entreat, master!

No!

I'll be good!

NO!

Leela

We're looking for the doctor, have you seen him?

You're his friends?

Look! Jelly Babies!

Leela

Jelly Babies! You have seen him! Where is he?

I cannot interfere, only observe.

Leela

But what if they attacked you?

Then they would be very stupid; nothing can get past the transduction barriers.

K9, destroy the transduction barriers.

Master. [moves forward]

[stops K9] Not yet.

Leela

Is it over?

Yes. [the outsiders cheer] It's been a long, hard road, but at last the future of Gallifrey is assured. [everyone stops cheering] What, what are you looking at? [turns around]

Please don't fire that thing.

[walks forward] There is no advantage in killing, yet. Slavery is more efficient.

Leela

Do you know these things?

Sontaran troopers.

I am Commander Stor, of the Sontaran Special Space Service.

The SSSS. Isn't that carrying alliteration little too far?
