Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes
Resolution
Mum [OC]: Lin, is that you?
Lin: Yep.
Mum [OC]: I'm making pasta. Do you want some?
Lin: I'm just gonna have a shower.
Mum [OC]: Did you see Mitch? How did it go?
(Lin takes off her jacket. The creature is nestled in the small of her back and holding on round her waist and shoulders. She touches the back of her neck, where one tentacle has inserted itself into her spinal column.) Mutant: No.
Lin: What are you?
Mutant: I am your pilot now. Do not fight me. I have control of your body. All brain and motor functions are under my power.
Lin: Please, no.
Mutant: Silence. See how I control you. Turn. Look.
(It speaks through her mouth.) You are my prisoner now. You are my puppet.
**************************************************
The Doctor: Bio-profiling nearly complete.
(ding) Yes. A match. Let's see what we've got. No. It can't be.
Yasmin: Doctor? I don't like it when you go quiet.
The Doctor: This is the DNA of the most dangerous creature in the universe.
Graham: Does it have a name?
The Doctor: A Dalek.
**************************************************
The Doctor: It can't do that. How did it do that? It's blown the systems! Shorted the navigation! Foldback blast from the creature itself. It can't do that. Unless... it's a reconnaissance scout.
Graham: In English?
The Doctor: Recon scouts have capabilities beyond the normal Dalek soldier. Specially advanced from the basic Dalek. The first to leave Skaro. Possibly the first to reach Earth.
Yasmin: So it's even worse than the really bad thing you was worried about in the first place.
**************************************************
Polly: UK Security Helpline. This is Polly. How can I help?
The Doctor: I'm sorry, what?
Polly: UK Security Helpline. How can I help?
The Doctor: Get me Kate Stewart at UNIT. This is a code zero emergency.
Polly: I don't know what that is, I'm afraid. Which organisation did you say?
The Doctor: UNIT. Unified Intelligence Taskforce. This is incredibly urgent. The fate of the entire planet is at stake.
Polly: Checking for you. Oh, I'm so sorry. UNIT operations have been suspended pending review.
The Doctor: What? No, it can't have been. UNIT is a fundamentally vital protection for planet Earth against alien invasion.
Polly: Yes, but when did that last happen?
The Doctor: Now! Right now! What happened to it?
Polly: Just checking. All UNIT operations were put on hold following financial disputes and subsequent funding withdrawal by the UK's major international partners.
The Doctor: You're kidding.
Polly: Other Armed Forces are available if you can answer a couple of questions to help me best direct your call.
(The Doctor ends the call.) The Doctor: We're on our own.
**************************************************
Dalek: Exterminate!
(It has a gun, and a claw instead of a sink plunger. The Sheffield sonic whirrs.) The Doctor: Blocking your laser signals, mate. You're not fully in sync yet. So that's what you've been doing. Reconstructing yourself from memory, and remnants, and spare parts.
Dalek: I am rebuilt.
The Doctor: What do you call this look, junkyard chic?
Dalek: Earth is now under the control of the Daleks.
The Doctor: No, it's not. You couldn't even control one person.
Dalek: Humanity will surrender.
The Doctor: They really won't. Trust me, I've seen them in action. They've fought off so many things, including the worst of their own people. They're really stubborn. Have you not worked that out yet? Even the recon scout Daleks, the first ones out of Skaro. Humanity bands together, vanquishes you, and buries you for centuries.
Dalek: Yet I survived.
The Doctor: Yeah, you're good at that. But it won't be enough.
Dalek: This planet is annexed. The fleet will be summoned.
The Doctor: You don't have the ability. You don't have the strength.
Dalek: You are weak. Humanity is weak.
The Doctor: Except... I'm not human. Have a scan.
Dalek: Who are you? Identify!
The Doctor: Oh, mate. I'm the Doctor. Ring any bells?
(The Sheffield sonic sparks.) Dalek: Sonic device override!
The Doctor: I'll take that as a yes.
(She takes evasive action as the Dalek starts firing.) Dalek: The Doctor is an enemy of all Daleks! Exterminate!
The Doctor: Yes, I am. You want this planet, you have to come through me. So why don't you make it easy on yourself and leave now?
Dalek: Conquest has already started. I have all the information I need.
The Doctor: What information?
Dalek: Humanity will surrender. Dalek invasion fleet will be summoned. Total conquest of Earth predicted in 9,376 rels!
(The Dalek takes off through the roof.) The Doctor: Now, must remember, how long's a rel?
**************************************************
Sergeant: Go! Go! Take positions! Intercepted unknown drone. We have it surrounded.
Dalek: Surrender!
Sergeant: Did it just talk?
Dalek: Allocated surrender period has expired. Consequence, extermination.
(A soldier dies.) Sergeant: Open fire!
(The bullets all bounce off the casing. No one aimed for the head or eye-piece.) Cease fire!
(Six domes in the front of the Dalek open to reveal rockets.) Run.
Soldier: What?
Sergeant: Run! That's an order!
Dalek: The Dalek race is supreme!
(And shoots them all in the back.)
**************************************************
The Doctor: It's diverting every bit of power it can take from the whole of the UK to power the transmission. It's shutting down the Wi-Fi, the phone signals. Whoa! That Dalek just shut down the whole of Britain's internet.
Graham: What, on New Year's Day, when everything's shut and everyone's hung over?
Ryan: What a monster.
*************************************************
Teen 1: The Wi-Fi's gone off.
Mother: Everything's gone off. No Wi-Fi, no phone signal. It's all down.
Teen 2: Not even Netflix?
(She tries the remote control.) Mother: Nothing.
Teen 1: What do we do?
Mother: I suppose we'll have to have a conversation.
Teens: What?
**************************************************
Aaron: You're really going in that? This is what you do?
The Doctor: Yeah. You fancy a trip?
Aaron: No. Call me when you get back. You are coming back?
Ryan: Yeah, of course.
Aaron: Look after him.
Yasmin: Always.
(Aaron and Ryan hug.) The Doctor: Come on then, you lot. Places to go.
Yasmin: When you say places to go, where are you thinking? Where to next?
The Doctor: I was thinking... everywhere.
