Quotes 

• Mels : You've got a time machine, I've got a gun. What the hell. Let's kill Hitler!

• Amy Pond : OK, Doctor, explain what's happening, please!

  The Doctor : "Mels," short for...?

  Mels : Melody.

  Amy Pond : Yeah, I named my daughter after her.

  The Doctor : You named your daughter... after your daughter.

• [Gunshot. Time rotor column with a bullet hole in is expelling a jet of compressed white smoke] 

  The Doctor : You shot it! You shot my TARDIS! You shot the console!

  Mels : It's your fault!

  The Doctor : Aaah! How is it my fault?

  Mels : You said guns didn't work in this place! You said, "We're in a state of temporal grace"!

  The Doctor : Oh, that was a clever lie, you idiot! Anyone could tell that was a *clever lie*!

• Rory : Um, where did you get the car?

  Mels : It's mine... ish.

  [police sirens are heard in the distance] 

  Amy Pond : Oh, Mels, not again.

  Rory : You can't keep doing this, you're going to end up in prison.

• Mels : It's all right for you. You've got Mr. Perfect keeping you right.

  Amy Pond : [thinking Mels means the Doctor, tosses the model TARDIS back to Mels]  He's not even real. Just a stupid dream when I was a kid.

  Mels : I wasn't talking about him.

  [Mels looks over at Rory going out the door] 

  Amy Pond : What, Rory?

  [Rory freezes-"Oh my god!"-in the open door] 

  Amy Pond : How have I "got" Rory?

  Rory : [nervously, covering]  Yeah. How... how's she "got" me?

  Amy Pond : He's not mine.

  Rory : No... No.

  [quietly] 

  Rory : I'm not hers.

  Mels : Come on. Seriously. It's got to be you two.

  [pause, Rory in fear, Amy not getting it] 

  Mels : Oh, cut to the song, it's getting boring.

  Amy Pond : Nice thought, okay? But completely impossible.

  Rory : [looks to Amy, crushed, swallows]  Yeah, ihh- impossible.

  Amy Pond : I mean, I'd love to. He's gorgeous. He's my favorite guy.

  [pats Rory on the shoulder] 

  Amy Pond : But he's, you know...

  Amy Pond , Rory : [simultaneously]  ... gay. /... a friend.

  [Rory and Amy look at each other] 

  Rory : I'm not gay.

  Amy Pond : Yes, you are.

  Rory : No. No I'm not.

  Amy Pond : Of course you are, don't be stupid. In the whole time I've known you, when have you shown the slightest interest in a *girl*?

  Mels : [rotating TARDIS model in her hands]  Penny in the air.

  Amy Pond : I mean, I've known you for what, ten years? I've seen you practically every day. Name one girl you've paid the *slightest* bit of attention to.

  [Pale, panicked, and perfectly paralyzed of voice, his secret crush now implicitly revealed, Rory turns tail and runs out. Mels giggles] 

  Amy Pond : [astonished, realizing his feelings for her, Amy looks to Mels while pointing at herself, silently mouthing]  Me?

  [aloud] 

  Amy Pond : Oh my... god! Rory?

  [Amy runs out after Rory] 

  Mels : [gets up, giving the model a toss in the air]  And the penny drops!

  Amy Pond : Rory! Come back!

  Mels : [to Amy's model TARDIS]  Catch you later, time-boy.

  [Mels tosses the TARDIS model to the bed, which becomes the real TARDIS tumbling through the clouds] 

• [to Rory and Amy] 

  Mels : Oh, cut to the song.

• Mels : [Casually]  I was late. I took a bus.

  Rory : Uh, you *stole* a bus.

  Amy Pond : [Astounded]  Who steals a bus?

  Mels : [Nonchalantly]  I returned it.

  Rory : [In disbelief]  You drove it through the Botanical Garden!

  Mels : [With a wry smile]  Shortcut.
