SSara

[Wakes up after the TARDIS explodes] S-S-Steven.

[Rushing over to her] Sara. It's all right. We're OK!

Hey! What's that? Oh, of course we are. Nothing can enter the ship!

SSara

But what happened to the ship? How are we outside?

This... is obviously a beach. I've always liked the sea-side. Something about the sand between ones toes... It's going to ruin these shoes though...

SSara

[Slightly annoyed] You're changing the subject, Doctor. The TARDIS...

You may have changed your appearance, but I know who you are.

DThe Doctor

Oh, do you?

Your machine is a TARDIS. You're too familiar with its controls to be a stranger.

DThe Doctor

I had every right to leave.

Stealing a TARDIS? Oh, I'm not criticising you. We are two of a kind.

DThe Doctor

We most certainly are not.

We were both Time Lords. And we both decided to leave our race.

DThe Doctor

I had reasons of my own.

Just as I had.

If these Time Lords are your friends, why don't you wait for them?

You don't understand, Mister Russell I must go! Please!

AVArturo Villar

[With pistols drawn] You stay here with us, my friend.

Look, I am not going to argue. Jamie, Zoe, Cartsairs, into the machine.

But, Doctor, he's not joking, y'know!

For once, Jamie, do as you are told!

AVArturo Villar

You move and I kill you!

Then you will just have to kill me, Mister Villar.

VVillar

Well, Mister Doctor, that is just what I will do.

[Russell and Carstairs wrestle Villar]

You can't shoot him in the back. He's helped us too much.

VVillar

The back, the front, what's the difference?

It's too late now anyway.

[The Doctor, Jamie, Zoe and Carstairs take off in the SIDRAT]

WThe WarLord

Don't Worry. When the Time Lords get him, he'll wish you had killed him.

The Time Lords are an immensely civilised race. We can control our own environment - we can live forever, barring accidents and we have the secret of space/time travel.

There is no escape, Doctor. Return the TARDIS to our home planet.

The Doctor Why can't you leave me alone?!

You have changed your appearance before. You will do it again; that is part of the sentence.

You can't just change what I look like without consulting me!

You will have the opportunity to choose your appearance.

Oh, then it won't be so bad. But I warn you, I'm very particular.

Here is your first choice.

[A man with a big bushy beard appears on the screen]

He's too old! [Looks at the other choices] Well, he's too fat, isn't he? No, he's too thin! That one's too young! Oh now, that won't do at all, it's ridiculous!

You're wasting time, Doctor.

Well, it's not my fault, is it? Is this the best you can do? I've never seen such an incredible bunch!

Since you refuse to take the decision, the decision will be taken for you.

No, no, no, I never said that! But I maintain I have the right to decide what I look like! It could be very important on the Earth. People on Earth attach a very great deal of importance- [Disappears]

Is this some sort of joke? No, I refuse to be treated in- What are you doing? NO!!!! STOP! You're making me giddy! No, you can't do this to me! No, no! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.....!
