“The God Complex” quotes from Doctor Who

OK, this is bad. At the moment I don't know how bad, but certainly we're three buses, a long walk, and eight quid in a taxi from good.

Every time the Doctor gets pally with someone, I have this overwhelming urge to notify their next-of-kin. [Rory flinches]

What?

Sorry. Last time I said something like that, you hit me with your shoe. And you literally had to sit down and unlace it first.

[to the Doctor] What exactly happened to him?

He died.

You are a medical doctor, aren't you? You haven't just got a degree in cheese-making or something?

No, no. Well, yes. Both, actually.

I can't save you from this. There's nothing I can do to stop this. I stole your childhood and now I've lead you by the hand to your death. But the worst thing is, I knew. I knew this would happen. This is what always happens. Forget your faith in me. I took you with me because I was vain. Because I wanted to be adored. Look at you. Glorious Pond. The girl who waited for me. I'm not a hero. I really am just a mad man in a box. And it's time we saw each other as we really are. Amy Williams, it's time to stop waiting.

[standing over the dying Minotaur] What's it saying?

[speaking the Minotaur's thoughts aloud] "An ancient creature, drenched in the blood of the innocent... drifting in space through an endless shifting maze... for such a creature, death would be a gift." [to the Minotaur] Then accept it, and sleep well. [the Minotaur growls and the Doctor reiterates in English] "I wasn't talking about myself."

Don't tell me, this isn't Earth, that isn't a real house, and inside lives a goblin that feeds on indecision.

Nope. Real Earth, real house, [He hands keys to Amy] real door keys.

You're not serious.

The car, too, but that's my favourite car. How did you know that was my favourite car?

Showed me a picture of it once and said, "That's my favourite car!"

Rory, um, can I have two minutes? Two minutes.

She'll say that we can't accept it because it's too extravagant and we'll always feel a crippling sense of obligation. [looks back at the Jaguar and Amy] It's a risk I'm willing to take. [Rory approaches the house]

Hey. [Beckons the Doctor to lean against the car with her] So, you're leaving, aren't you?

You haven't seen the last of me. Bad Penny is my middle name. Seriously, the looks I get when I fill in a form, it's...

Why now?

Because you're still... breathing.

Well, I think this is about the washing up, personally. [They laugh]

[Approaching the TARDIS] I mean, you're right, there's still heaps of stuff out there to look at. Do you know, there's a planet whose name literally translates as "Volatile Circus". [Amy laughs and the Doctor looks at the new house] Or maybe there's a bigger, scarier adventure waiting for you in there.

Even so, it can't happen like this. After what we've been through, Doctor... everything. You can't just drop me off at my house and say goodbye like we shared a cab.

And what's the alternative? Me standing over your grave? Over your broken body? Over Rory's body?

If you bump into my daughter, tell her to visit her old mum sometime.

[Looking back at the house] And look after him.

Look after you. [She kisses his forehead]

What happened? What's he doing?

He's saving us.
