Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes
Enlightenment – Part 1
Jackson: Got your bunk sorted out, have you?
The Doctor: Yes, thanks.
Jackson: Jackson's the name.
The Doctor: Ah. Turlough, and I'm the Doctor.
Jackson: Oh you are, are you? Well, it's about time. Hey, he's here, lads. The Doctor's aboard.
Collier:
(amongst general cheers) Thank Gawd for that.
The Doctor: You've been expecting me?
Jackson: More than expecting you, slush, we've been waiting for you. Where you been, eh? I mean, we've been living on nothing but hard tack since we come aboard, haven't we, lads?
All: Yeah, right.
Jackson: Get us some proper food, that's what we want.
Collier: Yeah, none of your stinky greasy messes, either.
All: Right.
Jackson: Not like that last cook we had, eh?
The Doctor: The doctor. Of course, the ship's cook.
Enlightenment – Part 2
The Doctor: Why are you doing this?
Striker: The race? As a diversion.
The Doctor: And the crews for the ships, you collected from their different time zones just as a diversion, too?
Striker: They are Ephemerals.
The Doctor: Ephemerals?
Striker: Beings like yourself.
The Doctor: You had no right to do it. They're real. Living, breathing flesh and blood.
Striker: You are not an Ephemeral. You are a time dweller. You travel in time.
The Doctor: You're reading my thoughts.
Striker: You are a Time Lord. A lord of time. Are there lords in such a small domain?
The Doctor: And where do you function?
Striker: Eternity.
Enlightenment – Part 3
(Turlough is in manacles hanging from the chandelier.) Wrack: Have you ever seen a man flogged to death? Or keelhauled? Very painful. You Ephemerals have such inventive ways of inflicting pain. Tell me, what do you want aboard my ship?
Turlough: Why ask? I thought you could all read minds.
Wrack: But yours is such a devious one. It's fascinating. I should like to peel it away, layer by layer. Why did you come to me? Was your intention sabotage? No? Then why did you come to my ship?
Turlough: Because you're going to win the race.
Wrack: Am I? What makes you so sure?
Turlough: What others have said.
Wrack: Ah, that I'm ruthless.
Turlough: Yes. I'm the same. I'm very determined, too. I like to win.
Wrack: You please me.
Turlough: I also want to learn the secret of your power.
Wrack: Power?
Turlough: To win. To control. To read minds.
Wrack: Then open your mind. Don't resist. Show faith.
(Wrack cuts Turlough down.) Turlough: Thank you.
(Mansell enters and hands Wrack the envelope.) Mansell: Captain.
Wrack: Your friends have accepted my invitation. They're concerned. How sweet.
Enlightenment – Part 4
Mansell: I found them coming out of the grid room.
Turlough: He's a spy. I saw him wandering around and followed him in.
Mansell: Then what were you doing in the grid room?
Turlough: I followed him in.
Mansell: Why didn't you summon help?
Turlough: From where? When you found me, I was trying to apprehend him myself.
Wrack: Spying, Doctor?
The Doctor: Well, I'd hardly call it spying. We were welcomed as guests, given the freedom of the ship.
Wrack: And you think freedom extends to a door marked 'Danger'?
(to Turlough) What shall we do with your friend the spy?
Turlough: Get rid of him.
