- Doctor Who: [reviving] Hello.
- [sees de Vries poises over him]
- Doctor Who: I hope that knife's been properly sterilized.
- DeVries: Blasphemer!
- Doctor Who: No, no, no. You can catch all sorts of things off a dirty knife. You know, lockjaw, tetanus, not to mention staphylococcus...
- Prof. Emilia Rumford: Doctor.
- Doctor Who: Yes?
- Prof. Emilia Rumford: It's getting rather exciting, isn't it.
- Doctor Who: What? Yes, yes, oh course. Let's hope it doesn't get too exciting, huh?
- K9: Master.
- Doctor Who: [startled] Shh! What? K-9, why don't you bark or something?
- K9: I'm not programmed to bark, master.
- Doctor Who: Yes, but listen - never mind about that - I've got a job for you. Now you've always wanted to be a bloodhound.
- K9: Negative, master.
- Doctor Who: Yes, you have. Yes, you have!
- K9: Negative.
- Doctor Who: Sh! Now here's your chance. Find Romana, hm?
- K9: Program: achievable, master. The mistress's scent, blood, tissue type and alpha wave pattern are all recorded in my data bank.
- Doctor Who: Yes, yes. Don't just talk about it, K-9. Do it!
- Romana: Doctor, the third segment...
- Doctor Who: Yes.
- Romana: The power to transform objects or at least their appearance...
- Doctor Who: Yes.
- Romana: Somebody's got it, and they found a way of utilizing its powers.
- Doctor Who: Right.
- Romana: Well, so what should we do?
- Doctor Who: Get you a decent pair of shoes.
