Quotes 

• The Doctor : You had another child named Ruby.

  Carla Sunday : I've never had children, mate.

  The Doctor : No. You adopted her.

  Carla Sunday : I foster. Now, don't be so stupid. I'm a foster mother. Just do it now and then, that's all. I've had about five or six kids.

  The Doctor : No, no, no, no. You had... They've gone.

  Carla Sunday : Who has?

  The Doctor : Your children. All those lives. You fostered 33.

  Carla Sunday : How many? Not me, darling. Don't be so stupid. That's too much like hard work. No way. I just put my name on the list when I need a bit of money.

  The Doctor : No, you don't.

  Carla Sunday : £800 per child.

  The Doctor : Don't say that.

  Carla Sunday : I think you got me mixed up with someone else. Cos there is no Ruby. There's just me stuck with my old mum up here in the attic. And I'm busy. I couldn't have a kid full-time. It'd be a nightmare. This little brat arrives, ruining my holiday. I was looking forward to it. Christmas Day. Mum's asleep by three and I'll be all on my own. Why would I want a daughter? I'm happy as I am.

  The Doctor : Then why are you crying?

  Carla Sunday : I don't know. Why are you?

• Mrs. Flood : You look like you've lost a pound and found a sixpence. What's wrong?

  The Doctor : Just wondering... Maybe I'm the bad luck.

• Ruby Sunday : Who are you?

  The Doctor : I'm the Doctor!
