Ruby quotes from Doctor Who

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?

Conrad, what are they talking about? What the hell is going on?!

We are Think Tank. Exposing the lies perpetrated by UNIT! By you. [to UNIT guards] And we're live streaming, so don't get trigger-happy.

This isn't funny.

[chuckles] I've had to listen to your stories for weeks now. Put up with your insecurity and vanity, listen to your tedious piano solos and get smothered in lip gloss! It has been a chore getting to know you! [shrugs] But now it's all worth it.

Put that phone down.

Or what? Gonna arrest me, huh? This is censorship! Touch us and we'll sue. We will bankrupt you.

[mockingly scaring Ruby] Boo!

You've made a very big, very dangerous mistake tonight, Conrad.

You don't even remember me, do you? [to the phones] The only monsters out here are UNIT! Lying to the public! Spending our money! Hiding in your tower, and doing what, huh? Doing what?

Protecting people like you.

Oh, they can't stop lying! There are no Shreek! No Cybermen, no Sycorax, no Yetis in the Underground! Here, look! Look! [holds up a Shreek mask] They're stooges and actors, and special effects paid for using taxpayers' money, to keep us scared, to hide their real agenda!

The threat to this planet is real!

If you want evidence, I've got plenty of it, so you can--

This one's collecting benefits, stealing our taxes while she lies to us. But the lies stop today. There are people all over the world watching this. Sharing, reposting, demanding the truth! They're using you! All of you! For her dirty work.

Do you think UNIT can't handle a few reject cosplayers? Because that's all you are, Conrad.

[with cruel smugness] You've gifted me this moment, Ruby Sunday. Is that even your name, by the way? Cos it's ridiculous!

I want a confession. On camera. Admit to the lies. Show us the monster costumes. Show us the tech that you're hiding, that we paid for.

You're deluded--

[in mocking sing-song] The grown-ups are talking! [to Kate] Come on, Commander-in-chief. Admit! Or are you a coward, like your father was?

[seething with anger] You should be very careful what you say about my father.

His only legacy was a pack of lies.

He was a hundred times the man you are. And that gun is UNIT issue, so where's Jordan Lang?

[clearly feigning ignorance] Who?

He's been shot. Ground team are rushing him to the infirmary.

You shot someone to get in here?

It's nothing to do with me.

[appalled] A man's life is hanging in the balance, and you're not even sorry.

Maybe you shot him! Or he was an actor. Or he never existed.

So, trip to space, anyone?

I want my mum.

I slightly want my mum too.

Tell them, Mr. Pink, what an educational opportunity…

You… You go. This… this is enough for me.

What? Coronal ejections, geomagnetic storms, how often do you get a playlist like that?

I was a soldier. I put myself at risk. I didn't try too hard to survive but somehow, here I am. And now I can see what I nearly lost and it's enough. I don't want to see more things, I want to see the things that are in front of me more clearly. There are wonders here, Clara Oswald. Bradley saying "please", that's a wonder. One person is more amazing… harder to understand, but more amazing than universes.

Really? What person is that, then? [They kiss]
