Tryst and The Doctor in “Nightmare of Eden”

Oh! I'm so delighted that you're taking an interest in my CET machine.

I'm absolutely amazed.

Yes! Well, it is rather impressive, isn't it?

No, I mean I'm amazed at you, Tryst, using a machine like this when it's still so primitive. The whole thing's utterly unstable.

[stammering] ...Well, I value your opinion, Doctor...

Good, good, I value my life, and this machine makes me fear for it!

It does?

Yes!

Well, what do you think is so wrong?

Well, at a rough guess, I'd say the spatial integrator... transmutation oscillator... hologistic retention circuit, shall I go on?

Oh, yes...

Dimensional osmosis damper?

Ah... the what?

[shocked] You mean you haven't even got a dimensional osmosis damper!?

Ahh...

Professor, you don't realize how unstable this machine is!
