Great One and The Doctor in “Planet of the Spiders”

Stop! Have you brought the crystal to me?

Well, if I had not, why should I return?

Very well, very well, advance.

I brought you the crystal. Now why don't you just take it and leave the humans in peace, Both here and on Earth?

[laughs] You think I care for the puny plans of my subjects? Earth? One paltry planet among millions? Give me the crystal. I thirst for it! I ache for it!

Well, why is it so important to you?

You see this web of crystal above my head? It reproduces the pattern of my brain. One perfect crystal and it will be complete. That is the perfect crystal I need.

And then?

My every thought will resonate within the web and grow in power until, until, until [laughs]

But you've built a positive feedback circuit! You're trying to increase your mental powers to infinity!

Exactly! I shall be the ruler of the entire universe! [laughs]

Now listen to me. Listen. I haven't got much time left. What you're trying to do is impossible. If you complete that circuit, the energy will build up and up until it cannot be contained. You will destroy yourself!

You waste the little time remaining to you. Even now the cave of crystal is destroying the cells of your body. I will grant you one last favor. You may watch the completion of my triumph before you die!

I am... complete! Now, I am... total... power! All praise to the Great One! [laughs]

Stop! Stop! Don't you see what's happened to you!?

All praise to the Great One! All praise to me! Bow down before me, planets! Bow down, Stars! Bow down, o Galaxies and worship the Great One! The me! The great, all powerful me! [starts to glow red] AAAAAHHH!! I HURRRRTT!! HELP MEE!! I'M BURNING, MY BRAIN IS ON FIRE!! HELP MEEEEEEEEEE!!! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!
