The Doctor
- The Doctor: [translating a Norse inscription] "We hoped to return to the North Way, but the curse follows our dragon ship... the Wolves of Fenric shall return for their treasure, and then shall the dark rule eternally."
- The Seventh Doctor: We need to get that flask.
- Ace: We can release Captain Sorin to help us. I could distract the guard.
- The Seventh Doctor: How?
- Ace: Professor, I'm not a little girl.
- Ace: You know what's going on.
- The Doctor: Yes.
- Ace: You always know. You just can't be bothered to tell anyone. It's like it's some kind of a and only you know the rules. You knew all about that inscription being a computer programme, but you didn't tell me! You know about that old bottle and you're not telling me! Am I so stupid?
- The Doctor: No that's not it.
- Ace: Why then, I want to know!
- The Doctor: Evil, evil since the dawn of time!
- Ace: What do you mean?
- The Doctor: Oh will you stop asking me these questions!
- Ace: [shouts] Tell me!
- The Doctor: [powerfully] The dawn of time. The beginning of all beginnings. Two forces, only good and evil. Then chaos. Time is born, matter, space. The universe cries out like a newborn. The forces shatter as the universe explodes outwards. Only echoes remain, and yet somehow, somehow, the evil force survives. An intelligence. Pure evil!
- Ace: And that's Fenric?
- The Doctor: No. That's just Millington's name for it. Evil has no name. Trapped inside a flask like a genie in a bottle.
- Ace: Can we stop it?
- The Doctor: We need to get that flask.
- Ace: We can release Captain Sorin to help us. I can distract the guard.
- The Doctor: How?
- Ace: Professor... I'm not a little girl.
- [Wainwright is standing in the misty daylight of his churchyard. Behind him the sinister figures of the transformed teenagers, Jean and Phyllis approach as if stalking him. They have become vampiric haemovores]
- Reverand Mr. Wainwright: I know who you are.
- Jean: You've always known us.
- Reverand Mr. Wainwright: [turning nervously to confront them] But vampires are just superstition. Why?
- Jean: We have black hearts. We were lost on the day we were born.
- Reverand Mr. Wainwright: That's not true. No-one is lost.
- Phyllis: Everyone is lost.
- Reverand Mr. Wainwright: No further.
- [Brandishes a bible in front of him]
- Reverand Mr. Wainwright: This is holy. It will destroy you.
- Phyllis: Objects can't harm us. It's human belief, and you stopped believing when the bombs started falling.
- Reverand Mr. Wainwright: I'm not frightened of German bombs.
- Jean: Not German. British.
- Phyllis: Falling on German cities. Killing German children.
- Reverand Mr. Wainwright: [His faith starting to buckle under the weight of the the vampiric duo's verbal onslaught] No... No!
- The Doctor: [the Doctor coming out of nowhere and suddenly comes stepping in between Wanwright and the two undead teenagers. He has stopped them in their tracks. Shouting] Stop!
- Ace: [Who's been with the Doctor] What's happened to you? What are you doing?
- Phyllis: [beginning to approach Ace] You should have come in to the water with us, then we'd have been together.
- The Doctor: [not allowing Phyllis to go any further] Go! Go!
- Jean: We go... but we'll return for you, Wainwright.
- [they turn and slowly move away from the Doctor and the others]
