Lines by Eighth Doctor 5

DThe Doctor

It was on the planet Skaro that my old enemy, the Master, was finally put on trial. They say he listened calmly as his list of evil crimes was read and sentence passed. Then he made his last, and I thought somewhat curious, request. He demanded that I, the Doctor, a rival Time Lord, should take his remains back to our home planet — Gallifrey. It was a request they should never have granted.

Scenes with Eighth Doctor 11

DThe Doctor

[Explaining regeneration to a bemused Grace]: Don't you see? I have thirteen lives.

GGrace

Please! Okay, you're trying to tell me that you've come back from the dead.

DThe Doctor

Yes.

GGrace

No, sorry. The dead stay dead. You can't turn back time.

DThe Doctor

Yes, you can.

GGrace

I'm not a child. Don't talk to me like I'm a child. Only children believe that crap. I am a doctor.

DThe Doctor

But it was a childish dream that made you a doctor. You dreamt you could hold back death. Isn't that true? [Beat] Don't be sad, Grace. You'll do great things.

GGrace

Maybe you're the result of some weird genetic experiment.

DThe Doctor

I don't think so.

GGrace

But you have no recollection of family?

DThe Doctor

No... No-no-no-no-wait-wait-wait-wait... I remember I'm-I-I... I'm with my father, we're lying back in the grass, it's a warm Gallifreyan night--

GGrace

Gallifreyan?

DThe Doctor

Gallifrey! Yes! This must be where I live. Now, where is that?

GGrace

I've never heard of it! What do you remember?

DThe Doctor

A meteor storm. The sky above us was dancing with lights! Purple, green, brilliant yellow... Yes!

GGrace

What?!

DThe Doctor

These shoes! [Stomps the ground happily.] They fit perfectly!

We’ve restored you to life, but it’s a temporary measure. You have a little under four minutes.

DThe Doctor

Four minutes? That’s ages! What if I get bored? I need a television, a couple of books? Anyone for chess? Bring me knitting.

DThe Doctor

She wanted to see the universe…

She didn’t miss much. It’s very nearly over.

DThe Doctor

I could’ve saved her. I could’ve got her off but she wouldn’t listen.

Then she was wiser than you. She understood there was no escaping the Time War. You are a part of this, Doctor. Whether you like it or not.

DThe Doctor

I would rather die.

You’re dead already. How many more will you let join you?

DThe Doctor

Will it hurt?

Yes.

DThe Doctor

Good. Charley, C'rizz, Lucie, Tamsin, Molly: Friends, companions I've known, I salute you. And Cass, I apologise. Physician, heal thyself...
