Is this world a threat to the Atraxi? Well, go on, you're monitoring the whole planet. Is this world a threat?
[does a quick scan of life on Earth] No.
Are the peoples of this world guilty of any crimes punishable by the laws of the Atraxi?
[scans through multiple historical atrocities] No.
Okay. One question, just one more: Is this world protected?
[The Atraxi scans through multiple invasions from among others, Daleks, Cybermen and Sea Devils]
You're not the first lot to have come here. Oh, there have been so many. But the real question you have to ask yourself is...what happened to them?
[The Atraxi then scans through images of every previous incarnation of the Doctor before the current one steps through the hologram, now properly dressed]
Hello. I'm the Doctor. Basically... Run.
[The Atraxi does so, retreating back up into the sky]
