Quotes1

  • [first lines]
  • Dr. Moon: Close your eyes and tell me what you see.
  • The Girl: [fade in to POV of drifting outside and above] The Library.
  • [the Girl looks down, sees herself suspended in the air, drifting above The Library]
  • Dr. Moon: Open your eyes again. Where are you now.
  • The Girl: [as if this is obvious] My living room, Dr. Moon.
  • Dr. Moon: When you close your eyes...?
  • The Girl: [finishing] I go to The Library.
  • Dr. Moon: [we see Dad seated behind Dr. Moon's right, concerned] Go to The Library now.
  • [the Girl closes her eyes again, and this time she's drifting down into a large, open-topped room of The Library]
  • Dr. Moon: Are you back there?
  • The Girl: Yes.
  • Dr. Moon: The same part?
  • The Girl: No, it's always different. The Library goes on forever.
  • Dr. Moon: How do you move around?
  • The Girl: [she touches down and looks up adoringly at the books on the shelves] By wishing.
  • [Suddenly there's frantic pounding on the door to the room. Startled, she turns around as the doors shake to the pounding they receive from outside]
  • Dr. Moon: [in the living room] What's wrong?
  • The Girl: [eyes tightly closed, distressed] Something's here! Someone's got in! No one is supposed to get in!
  • Dad: She's never mentioned anyone else. She's always been alone.
  • The Girl: Someone's in my library! No, no, please, it's not allowed! It's not allowed!
  • Dr. Moon: Listen to me: The Library is in your mind.
  • The Girl: I *know* it's in my mind, but something's got inside!
  • The Doctor: [More pounding and shaking, then, with a mighty kick, Donna Noble and the Doctor barge in. They quickly close the door and the Doctor bars it with a book through the handles. Leaning against the door and relaxing briefly, they notice they're not alone] Oh! Hello! Sorry to burst in on you like this. Okay if we stop here for a bit?
  • The Girl: [gasps and her eyes fly open]
