You know you said, anything I wanted to know, just ask, right?
Encyclopædia Clydannica, I’m your man.
Tell me about girls.
[exasperated] Oh, man!

S1 E15Unfinished Business
So, Clyde fights Slitheens and Gorgons, and that's ok with you, but a bit of skateboarding, and, woah...
I know! Oh, shame on me. Well, I've changed since I met you lot, I've gone all mumsy!
[In the white void of limbo]
I take it this is your domain? Who are you?
Nobody. I am nothing.
Any chance you could be a bit less cryptic?
It's hard for me to make you understand. Ephemeral minds are so limited. [pulls back its hood, revealing that it only has a mouth in its head] Behold. As you can see, I have no self. I exist only to bring disorder. That is my purpose.
But why?
Chaos is my blood and air and food. You are the key to that chaos. I have been waiting, searching through time, for just the right person at just the right moment. I took you to aid the coming of darkness.
Where's Luke? Where is my son?
The Bane never came to Earth in the timeline that I have created. Luke Smith never existed.
People who don't exist, they end up here, don't they? In this nowhere land? So where is he? I demand to see my son!
He is lost, in the forgotten places. Even further out than you.
But if I died all those years ago - never mind the Bane, what about the Slitheen, and the Gorgons, and the Patriarchs of the Tin Vagabond? I stopped them all from taking over the Earth. What happened to them?
I turned them all away. All I need is the meteor.
Why? What's so special about that?
Those other species, they invade for profit, power, revenge. The meteor is pure chaos. The destruction of the Earth for no reason at all. Just blind chance. This is food for me.
You'll destroy all life on Earth, and you don't even care...?!
I care about you. You are so wonderful, Sarah Jane Smith. Your life was so important and I found the right moment to snuff it out, with the help of Andrea Yates.
Andrea was my friend.
She wished to save her own life. I could only remove you with her consent.
She agreed to it?!
I must go now. Events are moving towards their end. [turns to leave]
No, don't go!
I will return when the Earth is no more, and I will explore your potential further. In particular, your memories of this "Doctor".
You leave him alone!
I can use you to find him. Imagine if the Doctor had never existed. What chaos there would be across the stars... [fades away]
Don't you dare! Don't you dare! DON'T YOU DARE!
Dad, you genius!
No, no, no, listen. The meteor. You were right. It's heading straight for us.
We can stop it, but we need Sarah Jane.
I don't remember Sarah Jane.
Dad, trust me. You remembered me when I disappeared eh? Well, I remember Sarah Jane and she's the only person who can save us.
How? She's just a normal woman, isn't she?
She's a lot more than that. You've gotta help me. We can get Sarah Jane back. Whatever you did with that thing, do it again!
AAndrea
[Looks into the mirror and sees Sarah Jane] No. Not you...
Andrea Yates. It's you. All grown up.
AAndrea
Well, Look at you. Scrubbed up well. Always did look younger than you were. But you can't be here - not while I'm here. You can't come back! [Maria and Alan come running into the attic.]
Sarah Jane!
But that's her, she's only in the mirror, this thing didn't work!
I can't get back while Andrea's still here. And I must get back, to save Luke. To save the world!
But what do we do?
There is a way. It's why the creature got rid of Maria. She confronted you. She might have persuaded you to go back on your deal. This whole thing depends upon your agreement to my death all those years ago.
If you break off the deal, Sarah Jane comes back. All you have to do is pull out of it! Say no!
AAndrea
I can't.
If you don't, that meteor is going to hit. Is that what you want?
I'm sorry, Andrea, but you were meant to die.
AAndrea
"Meant"?! Who says I'm meant to die?! I was so young, I had so much to do, and I did it! Look at me! I lived every single moment because I knew what it was worth!
So did I.
AAndrea
And you're the chosen one?! The golden girl?!
Oh, nobody was chosen. It was stupid and pointless, what happened that day. But this is worse. That thing twisted it. He used you.
AAndrea
So I die? At thirteen?
And my son gets a chance to live. He's lost out there, Andrea. Somewhere terrible. And I am begging you, please: save him.
AAndrea
If I do, what happens to my life? All the things I did as I grew up. They get scrubbed out? I get forgotten?
You were never forgotten, never! What I saw that day, it changed me forever. I saw how precious life is, and it made me fight to defend it across all these years, because of you, Andrea! It was all because of you! My best friend.
Andrea Yates. They want to kill you all over again. Remember your bargain with me.
AAndrea
You tricked me! You used a child, and now you're destroying the Earth!
Chaos is good.
AAndrea
Well, I say no. If there's one thing I can do with my life, I can put a stop to you for good. I've changed my mind. I'm taking the deal back!
Then you will die!
AAndrea
I've been dead for forty years. Been a good life. It's my birthday. Bye, Sarah Jane. I'm going now… AND YOU'RE FREE! [throws the puzzle box at the mirror]
She did it!
Oh, like Bobby Sue had anything to do with that! You'll be telling me she invented the zip fastener next!
You're back!
Was I away?
And you are never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, going away again!
JJay
Oh, these new slim-line flesh-suits... they might handle the gas exchanges better, but they're a bit on the snug side. [he unzips his forehead and emerges from his disguise]
You're Slitheen!
[Heidi also unmasks]
But you're skinny!
HHeidi
Amazing, isn't it? With this technology I can eat all I want and still be a size eight.
[to Nathan] And you?
What? Don't you remember me, Luke? How you killed my family and left me locked in a sealed room to die?!
Carl!
[Nathan unmasks, revealing himself to be the same young Slitheen who posed as Carl]
Same Slitheen, different skin. I teleported out and survived. My father wasn't so fortunate. And now, I'm going to get my revenge.
[The Slitheen laugh]
Mr. Smith? I need you...
Clyde. What a pleasure.
What? Really? Ah, cool!
You have something for me?
Yeah, as it happens. I've got this. [takes out picture of Luke and Nathan's family] It's a picture of Luke and that pair that reckon he's their kid - only I reckon it's a fake. See? I thought you could do your analysing thing and--
You're right, Clyde. It is fake. I faked it.
[shocked] You? Am I missing something here?
More than you could ever imagine, Clyde.
What's going on?
I am a Xylok. I have a purpose. And you, Clyde, are a part of it.
[Mr. Smith sends a bolt of light towards Clyde, making him disappear, and the scene ends with him in malevolent laughter]
CSClyde's voicemail
If you want me - and I don't blame you - leave your name and number, especially if you're cute.
[about the Slitheen] They're a bunch of scavengers and chancers. It's Only Fools and Horses with green skin and claws.
[chasing Luke] You're as slippery as the Bane scum that made you!
What have you done with my son?
HHeidi
The misbehaving little brat? Back on Raxacoricofallapatorius, we'd spank his backside with a Bartleboigle tree!
Yes, well, we're not there, so where is he?!
This is too much to take in.
That's the universe, Alan. Once it's chosen to show you some of its secrets, you can't ever turn your back on it. None of us can.
