- Dastari: [having administered an anesthetic injection] Count backwards from ten, Doctor.
- The Second Doctor: Certainly not!
- Dastari: As you wish.
- The Second Doctor: Do you expect me to co-operate in my own murder? I'm dinyey... oik... phaarll...
- The Sixth Doctor: There was an echo. An after-resonance. When you've been locked in as many dungeons as I have, you wouldn't fail to recognize it.
- Jamie: He's not the doctor I know.
- The Sixth Doctor: I am so, Jamie McKimmon. I am another aspect of him, just as he is of me.
- Jamie: Ay?
- The Sixth Doctor: I was him; he will be me.
- Jamie: [confused] Who will I be?
- The Sixth Doctor: [Jamie enters] Ah! You look better for your change of clothes and a bath. You should try it more often.
- Jamie: Thank you. What?
- Stike: It is not easy being commander. The loneliness of supreme responsibility.
- The Second Doctor: Why don't you resign, Stike? Take a pension?
- Dastari: [before the dissection begins] Afraid I'm unable to give you a full anesthetic.
- The Second Doctor: Doing the job on the cheap, are you?
- Oscar: [spotting the TARDIS] Well, isn't that incredible! Ha! Police! And they say they're never there when you need them!
- Anita: Oscar, it doesn't say 'Policia'.
- Oscar: Interpol, my dear. They have branches everywhere!
- Anita: Oscar, you are a fool!
- Oscar: [seeing the Doctor step out of the TARDIS and thinking him a policeman] Officer! We have to report a tragedy. Stark disaster has struck this simple countryside.
- The Sixth Doctor: Has it indeed! Uh, what manner of disaster, Mr...?
- Oscar: Botcheby. Oscar Botcheby, at your service, sir. And this dark-eyed Naiad is named Anita.
- Anita: Oh, come on, Oscar!
- [to the Doctor]
- Anita: There's been a plane crash.
- Oscar: Well, of course it may not be your department. I can see from your arraignment that you obviously belong to the plainclothes branch.
- [Doctor stares, confused, at his bright paisley vest]
- The Sixth Doctor: Oh, the, uh, Sontarans and the Rutans are old enemies They've been fighting each other across the galaxy for so long, I've almost forgotten what started it.
- The Second Doctor: [strapped to a table as Stike wheels in operating equipment for his dissection] Tea time already, nurse?
- Stike: I do not understand.
- The Second Doctor: Just as well. A face like yours was
- [n't]
- The Second Doctor: made for laughing.
