The Doctor • Commander Maxil
- The Doctor: Wait a minute, I know you. You're the Chamberlain.
- Chamberlain: Yes, that's right sir.
- The Doctor: I don't like you.
- The Doctor: Planets come and go. Stars perish. Matter disperses, coalesces, forms into other patterns, other worlds. Nothing can be eternal.
- The Doctor: This is a situation that requires tact and finesse. Fortunately, I am blessed with both.
- The Doctor: My last incarnation... oh, I was never happy with that one. It had a sort of feckless "charm" which simply wasn't *me*!
- The Doctor: Unless we are prepared to sacrifice our lives for the good of all, then evil and anarchy will spread like the plague.
- The Doctor: Unstable? Unstable? Unstable? This is me, Peri! Right now I am as stable as you will ever see me! You must forget how I used to be. I'm a Time Lord. A man of science, temperament, and *passion*!"
- The Doctor: No, there's something else going on here. I was taken out of time for another reason and I have every intention of finding out what it is!
- The Doctor: Well, look at me. I'm old, lacking in vigour, my mind's in turmoil. I no longer know if I'm coming, have gone, or even been. I'm falling to pieces. I no longer even have any clothes sense... Self-pity is all I have left.
- The Doctor: Ahhh... a noble brow. Clear gaze. At least it will be given a few hours sleep. A firm mouth. A face beaming with a vast intelligence. My dear child what on Earth are you complaining about? It's the most extraordinary improvement.
- The Doctor: Well, well. The Rani. I can't say I think much about your outfit. Doesn't do a thing for you.
- The Rani: Your regeneration isn't too appealing either.
