Quotes6

  • Doctor Who: Engin, I can feel my hair curling. And that means either it's going to rain, or else I'm on to something.
  • Doctor Who: The Master's consumed with hatred. It's his one great weakness.
  • The Master: Weakness, Doctor? Hate is strength!
  • Doctor Who: Not in your case. You'd delay an execution to pull the wings off a fly.
  • Doctor Who: Goth? Goth, what was his plan?
  • Chancellor Goth: [dying] Couldn't... fight... his mental dominance. Did everything he asked. Sorry now.
  • Doctor Who: Goth, what was...
  • Co-Ordinator Engin: It's no use, Doctor.
  • Doctor Who: No answer to a straight question. Typical politician.
  • Cardinal Borusa: Our story is going to be that the Master arrived in Gallifrey to assassinate the President, secretly. Before he could escape, Chancellor Goth tracked him down and killed him, unfortunately perishing himself in the exchange of fire. Now that's much better. I can believe that.
  • Co-Ordinator Engin: You're making Goth into a hero?
  • Cardinal Borusa: If heroes don't exist, it is necessary to invent them. Good for public morale.
  • Co-Ordinator Engin: And the Doctor's part in all this?
  • Cardinal Borusa: Best forgotten. Of course, Doctor, the charge against you will be dropped.
  • Doctor Who: How kind.
  • Cardinal Borusa: Conditional on your leaving Gallifrey tonight.
  • Doctor Who: Somehow, Cardinal, I don't want to stay.
  • Cardinal Borusa: Good. I believe you know something of the Master's past.
  • Doctor Who: We've bumped into each other from time to time.
  • Cardinal Borusa: Then before you leave, you can assist Coordinator Engin to compile a new biog of him. It doesn't have to be entirely accurate.
  • Doctor Who: Like Time Lord history.
  • Cardinal Borusa: Yes indeed, I am conscious of the debt we owe the Doctor. But Gallifrey has never know such a catastrophe, such devastation. What will we say?
  • Doctor Who: Well, you'll just have to adjust the truth again, Cardinal. What about subsidence owing to a plague of mice?
  • Cardinal Borusa: As I believe I told you long ago, Doctor, you will never amount to anything in the galaxy while you retain your propensity for vulgar facetiousness.
  • Doctor Who: Yes, sir. You said that many times, sir. May I go, sir?
  • Cardinal Borusa: Certainly you may, preferably with the utmost expedition. Perhaps you will see that the transduction barriers are raised, Castellan.
  • Castellan Spandrell: Yes, sir.
  • Cardinal Borusa: Oh, Doctor?
  • Doctor Who: Sir?
  • Cardinal Borusa: Nine out of ten.
  • Doctor Who: [chuckles] Oh! Thank you, sir.
  • Doctor Who: [trying to climb up a wall] Give us a bunk up!
