Doctor Who

Martha and The Doctor in “The Shakespeare Code”

MMartha

[After travelling to 1599] But are we safe? Can we move around and stuff?

DThe Doctor

Of course we can. Why do you ask?

MMartha

It's like in the films! You step on a butterfly, you change the future of the human race!

DThe Doctor

[Bemused] I'll tell you what, then: don't...step on any butterflies. What have butterflies ever done to you?

MMartha

What if...I dunno! What if I kill my grandfather?!

DThe Doctor

Are you planning to?

MMartha

No.

DThe Doctor

Well, then.
