[Adric's final words, before the freighter crashes and explodes]
AdricNow I'll never know if I was right.
AdricWill Romana be all right?
All right? She'll be superb!
[The Doctor goes to rescue Biroc's Race]
If I'm not back in thirteen and a half minutes, dematerialize.
AdricWithout you?!
I am not letting you go out there alone!
That's an order. It's time you started accepting orders.
It's long past time but how are you going to find it?
With my eyes
Adric and I have seen it
Right. Come on then.
AdricI'm coming too
You are not, it's long past time you obeyed order. Now stay here, and if we're not back in thirteen and a half minutes, I want you to dematerialize. Is that understood?
I like that. You're improving.
AdricI don't see what the law of probability has to do with it.
No. [realizing what Adric said] What?! Adric, I've given you a privileged insight into the mystery of time, yes?
AdricYes.
Introduced you to adventures beyond imagining, yes?
AdricYes.
And you criticise my logic?
AdricNo, no, I'm just saying that a lot of the time you don't really make sense.
[pauses] Ah! Ah, you've noticed that, have you? Well, anybody can make sense.
Traken Union, famous for its harmony. A whole empire held together by- by people being terribly nice to each other.
AdricWell, that makes a change.
[about the Keeper disappearing] What do you make of it?
AdricI don't know. But I do hope we know what we're doing.
Yes, so do I. [realizing what Adric just said] We?!
Adric[points at the Doctor] You. [the Doctor smiles]
What can't be cured must be endured.
AdricThat's the silliest thing I ever heard.
Oh don't listen to me. I never do.
[The Fourth Doctor's last words.]
It's the end... but the moment has been prepared for... [points to a ghostly figure that walks forward]
AdricThe Watcher!
[The Watcher merges with the Doctor]
He was the Doctor all the time.
[The Fourth Doctor turns into the Watcher, then gains youthful features and short straight hair. The Fifth Doctor sits up]
AdricSo what is a railway station?
Well, a place where one embarks and disembarks from compartments on wheels drawn along these tracks by a steam engine; rarely on time.
What a very silly activity.
D'You think so? As a boy, I always wanted to drive one.
Do you really want to go home?
AdricNo, of course not. There's nothing there for me anymore.
[mock annoyance] So you did all these calculations for nothing!
[Adric grins]
There must be something I can do, tell me!
Too late, Peri. Going soon. Time to say goodbye.
Don't give up! You can't leave me now!
I might regenerate! I don't know.
(off-screen) Please...
Feels different this time.
What was it you always told me, Doctor? Brave heart? You'll survive, Doctor.
You must survive. Too many of your enemies would delight in your death, Doctor.
Turlough speaks the truth, Doctor.
You're needed. You mustn't die, Doctor.
Too many of your enemies would be delighted.
AdricYou know that, Doctor.
You mustn't die, Doctor.
AdricYou know that, Doctor.
Adric?
AdricYou know that, Doctor.
You mustn't die, Doctor.
No, my dear Doctor, you must die! Die, Doctor! DIE, DOCTOR! [laughs wickedly]
