lots and lots of Eleventh Hour quotes
I decided that I could not possibly review the newest Doctor Who in any meaningful way; it would all be "squeeeee *flail flail flail* squeeeeee" and no substance. So I decided to write a post with my favourite quotes, instead. Which turned out to be half the script - and that's cutting away quite a bit of good stuff!
"You're soaking wet."
"I was in the swimming pool."
"You said you were in the library."
"So was the swimming pool."
"Who are you?"
"I don't know yet. I'm still cooking. Does it scare you?"
"No. It just looks a bit weird."
"No, no, no, the crack in your wall. Does it scare you?"
"Yes."
*jumps up* "Well, then! No time to lose! I'm the Doctor. Do everything I tell you, don't ask stupid questions, and don't wander off." *walks into a tree*
"You all right?"
"Early days. Steering's a bit off."
"I hate yoghurt. It's just stuff with bits in."
"You said it was your favourite."
"New mouth, new rules. It's like eating after cleaning your teeth, everything tastes wroooo..."
"What is it? What's wrong with you?"
"Wrong with me? It's not my fault! Why can't you give me any decent food? You're Scottish, fry something!"
"Beans are evil. Bad, bad beans."
"...and stay out!"
"Oh, that's a brilliant name! Amelia Pond. Like a name in a fairy tale."
"I don't even have an aunt."
"You're lucky."
"I know."
"'Course you're not. You're not scared of anything. Box falls out of the sky, man falls out of the box, man eats fish custard, and look at you! Just sitting there. So you know what I think? Must be a helluva scary crack in your wall."
"You know when grownups tell you everything's gonna be fine, and you think they're probably lying to make you feel better?"
"Yes."
"Everything's gonna be fine."
"Give me five minutes, I'll be right back."
"People always say that."
"Am I people? Do I even look like people? Trust me, I'm the Doctor."
"That's much better. Brand new me. Knock on the head, just what I needed."
"You're a policewoman!"
"And you're breaking and entering. You see how this works?"
"How many rooms on this floor? Count them for me now!"
"Why?"
"Because it will change your life."
"Five. One, two, three, four, five."
"Six."
"Six?"
"Look."
"Look where?"
"Exactly where you don't want to look, where you never want to look. The corner of your eye. Look behind you."
"Stay away from that door! Do not touch that door! Listen to me, do not open that... Why does no one ever listen to me? Do I just have a face that nobody listens to? ...Again..."
"Silver blue at the end?"
"My screwdriver? Yeah."
"It's here."
"Must have rolled under the door."
"Yeah. Must have. And then it must have jumped up on the table."
"Her and me, we're safe. Want to know why? She sent for backup."
"I didn't send for backup!"
"I know, that was a clever line to save our lives. Okay, yeah, no backup. And that's why we're safe. Alone we're no threat to you. If we had backup, then you'd have to kill us."
"ATTENTION PRISONER ZERO! THE HUMAN RESIDENCE IS SURROUNDED."
"What's that?"
"Well, that would be backup. Okay, one more time. We do have backup, and that's definitely why we're safe."
"PRISONER ZERO WILL VACATE THE HUMAN RESIDENCE OR THE HUMAN RESIDENCE WILL BE INCINERATED."
"Well, safe apart from, you know, incineration."
"Why did you pretend to be a policewoman?"
"You broke into my house, it was this or a French maid! What's going on? Tell me!"
"I'm not six months late, I'm twelve years late."
"He's coming!"
"You said six months! Why did you say six months?"
"We've got to go!"
"This matters! This is important! Why did you say six months?"
"Well, why did you say five minutes!?"
"You're Amelia!"
"You're late."
"Amelia Pond! You're the little girl!"
"I'm Amelia, and you're late."
"What happened?"
"Twelve years."
"You hit me with a cricket bat!"
"Ha! Twelve years!"
"A cricket bat!"
"Twelve years and four psychiatrists."
"Four?"
"I kept biting them."
"Why?"
"They said you weren't real."
"Hello! Sorry to burst in, we're doing a special on television faults in this area. Also, crimes."
"Hello, Amy dear! Are you a policewoman now?"
"Well, sometimes."
"I thought you were a nurse."
"I can... be a nurse."
"Or actually, a nun."
"I dabble!"
"I know you, don't I? I've seen you somewhere before."
"Not me. Brand new face. First time on. And what sort of job is a kissogram?"
"I go to parties and I kiss people. With outfits. It's a laugh!"
"You were a little girl five minutes ago!"
"You're worse than my aunt!"
"I'm the Doctor, I'm worse than everybody's aunt! And that is not how I'm introducing myself."
"Are you the Doctor?"
"He is, isn't he? He's the Doctor! The Raggedy Doctor! All those cartoons you did when you were little! The Raggedy Doctor! It's him!"
*whisper* "Hrm. Shut up."
"Twenty minutes to save the world, and I've got a post office. And it's shut."
"This isn't real, is it? This is some kind of big wind-up."
"Why would I wind you up?"
"You told me you had a time machine."
"And you believed me!"
"Then I grew up."
"Oh, you never want to do that."
"Run to your loved ones and say goodbye, or stay and help me."
"No."
"I'm sorry?"
"No!"
"Amy, no, no, what are you doing? Are you out of your mind?"
"Who are you?"
"You know who I am."
"No, really. Who are you?"
"Look at it this way. End of the world, twenty minutes."
"Well, better talk quickly, then!"
"Amy... I am going to need my car back."
"Yes, in a bit. Now go and have coffee!"
"Right. Yes..."
"This is Rory, he's a... friend."
"Boyfriend."
"Kind of boyfriend."
"Oh... my God... it's him."
"Just answer his question, please."
"It's him, though! The Doctor, the Raggedy Doctor!"
"Yeah, he... came back."
"But he was a story! He was a game..."
"Nurse boy, give me your phone!"
"How can he be real? He was never real!"
"Phone! Now! Gimme!"
"It was just a game! We were... we were kids! You made me dress up as him!"
"Your friend, what was his name? Not him, the good looking one!"
"Thanks."
"Jeff."
"Ohhhh thanks."
"Blimey! Get a girlfriend, Jeff!"
"Faster than light travel with two diagrams and a joke!"
"Why should you trust me? I'll let my best man explain. -- Jeff, you're my best man."
"Today's the day you save the world."
"Why me?"
"It's your bedroom."
"Oh, and delete your internet history."
"Doctor, we're in the hospital, but we can't get through. -- Oh."
"What did he say?"
"Look in the mirror."
"Oh, I'm getting it wrong again, aren't I? I'm always doing that. So many mouths."
"The Atraxi are limited. While I'm in this form they'll still be unable to detect me. They've tracked a phone, not me."
"Yeah, but this is the good bit, I mean, this is my favourite bit. Do you know what this phone is full of? Pictures of you! Every form you've learned to take, right here. Ooh, and being uploaded about... now. And the final score is: No TARDIS, no screwdriver, two minutes to spare... WHO DA MAN!? -- Oh, I'm never saying that again. Fine."
"Well, that's rubbish. Who's that supposed to be?"
"It's you!"
"Me? Is that what I look like?"
"You don't know?"
"Busy day."
"Well done, prisoner Zero. A perfect impersonation of yourself."
"Oi, I didn't say you could go! Article fifty-seven of the Shadow Proclamation. This is a fully established Level Five planet and you could have burned it! What? Did you think no one was watching? You lot, back here, now! -- Okay, now I've done it."
"Um, did he just bring them back? Did he just save the world from aliens and then bring all the aliens back again?"
"I'm saving the world; I need a decent shirt. To hell with the raggedy! Time to put on a show!"
"You just summoned aliens back to Earth. Actual aliens! Deadly aliens, aliens of Death! And now you're... taking your clothes off. Amy, he's taking his clothes off."
"Turn your back if it embarrasses you."
"Are you stealing clothes now? Those clothes belong to people, you know! -- Are you not gonna turn your back?"
"Nope!"
"So this was a good idea, was it? They were leaving!"
"Leaving is good. Never coming back is better."
"You are not of this world."
"No, but I've put a lot of work into it."
"Is this world important?"
"Important? What does that mean, important? Six billion people live here, is that important?"
"Hello! I'm the Doctor. Basically, run."
"Okay, what have you got for me this time? -- Look at you! Oh, you sexy thing! Look at you!"
"I just saved the world! The whole planet, for about the millionth time, no charge. Yeah, shoot me, I kept the clothes."
"Including the bow tie."
"Yeah, it's cool, bow ties are cool."
"Are you from another planet?"
"Yeah."
"Okay."
"So what do you think?"
"What?"
"Other planets, wanna check some out?"
"Those things, those amazing things, all that stuff... That was two years ago!"
"Oooh... oops."
"Yeah!"
"So that's..."
"Fourteen years!"
"Fourteen years since fish custard. Amy Pond, the girl who waited, you waited long enough."
"When I was a kid, you said there was a swimming pool, and a library, and the swimming pool was in the library."
"Yes. Not sure where it's got to now. It'll turn up. So, coming?"
"No."
"You wanted to come fourteen years ago."
"I grew up."
"Don't worry. I'll soon fix that!"
"I'm in my nightie!"
"Oh, don't worry, plenty of clothes in the wardrobe - and, possibly, a swimming pool."
"I thought, well, I was starting to think that you were just a madman with a box."
"Amy Pond, there's something you'd better understand about me, because it's important, and one day your life may depend on it. I'm definitely a madman with a box. Haha, yeah!"
In conclusion, character interactions more quote-worthy than the plot, but all purr-making. :-)
