The Doctor and Max Capricorn in “Voyage of the Damned”

Oh, yes! No... yes! The business isn't failing, it's failed. Past tense.

My own board voted me out. Stabbed me in the back!

If you had a back. So, you scupper the ship, wipe out any survivors, just in case anyone's rumbled you, and the board find their shares halved in value. Oh, but that's not enough. No. Because if a Max Capricorn ship hits the Earth, it destroys an entire planet. Outrage back home! Scandal! The business is wiped out.

[with smug relish] And... the whole board thrown in jail for mass murder!

While you sit there, safe inside the impact chamber.

I have men waiting to retrieve me from the ruins, and enough off-world accounts to retire me to the beaches of Penhaxico Two, where the ladies, so I'm told, are very fond of... [glances downward for a moment] metal.

[incredulous and outraged] So that's the plan. A retirement plan. Two thousand people on this ship, six billion underneath us, all of them slaughtered, and why?! Because Max Capricorn is a loser!

I never lose!

You can't even sink the Titanic!
