What do you know of the Dalek Asylum?
According to legend, you have a dumping ground. A planet where you lock up all the Daleks that go wrong. The battle-scarred, the insane. The ones even you can’t control. Which never made any sense to me.
Why not?
Because you'd just kill them!
It is offensive to us to extinguish such divine hatred.
Offensive?!?
Does it surprise you to know the Daleks have a concept of beauty?
[appalled] I thought you'd run out of ways to make me sick, but hello again. You think hatred is beautiful?
Perhaps that is why we have never been able to kill you.
[A hatch in the floor opens, revealing a planet surrounded by a force field]
The Asylum. It occupies the entire planet, right to the core.
How many Daleks are in there?
A count has not been made. Millions, certainly.
All still alive?
It has to be assumed. The asylum is fully automated. Supervision is not required.
Armed?
The Daleks are always armed.
What colour? [Everyone stares at him] Sorry, there weren't any good questions left.
