I just watched the new episode of Doctor Who with my family and my boyfriend, Mike. We didn't take it very seriously at all.
Me: Anyone else remember when the Daleks were scary and important enough to be a season finale?
- Mike: Save the Daleks. Oh yes, the famous Dalek survival instinct.
- Mike: You know, the one where earlier they were willing to destroy everything
- Mike: Including themselves.
- Mike:
- Me:
- Mike:
- Me:
- Mike: That one.
- Mike: Prime Minister?
- Mike: They've taken a bit of a step down from Emporer, haven't they?
- Me: They must have accepted Elizabeth II as their queen. They are loyal to our crown now. He has to save them.
- Cyberman: You are compatible, although your design is inelegant.
- Dalek: Daleks have no concept of elegance.
- Cyberman: This is obvious.
- SEVERAL YEARS LATER
- Dalek Prime Minister: Does it surprise you to know that the Daleks have a concept of beauty.
- Doctor:
- Me:
- Mike:
- Me:
- Dalek:
- Mike: Yes, actually.
- Doctor: Oh hey look a big black hole that we cannot see the bottom of.
- Doctor:
- Doctor:
- Doctor:
- Random Dude: I have enough rope.
- Doctor:
- Mike: HOW CAN YOU TELL?
- (Skeleton is revealed)
- Doctor: They're dead.
- Mike: Well done. I can tell why you're a doctor.
- Doctor: The first thing you're going to lose is your memories, and I'm sorry but it's started already.
- Amy: How do you know?
- Doctor: Because you've asked me that four times already.
- Doctor:
- Doctor:
- Dad: OH MY GOD my mum's turning into a Dalek!
- Dalek: SELF. DESTRUCT. INITIATED.
- Amy: What's it doing?
- Me: Baking a cake. What the fuck do you think, Amy?
- Doctor: It's blowing itself up and us with it.
- Mike: Y'know those self preservation instincts I was talking about earlier? This is them in action. 'Can't shoot the Doctor: must blow self up'.
- Me: Flawless.
- Doctor: The Daleks need genius. They did a full converstion. You are not human, you are a Dalek.
- Mike: Hey remember the last time the Daleks did human conversion?
- Me: Um...
- Mike: Back with the Ninth Doctor, in the season finale, and they were all screwy and religious and just generally shoddy Daleks. Why have they done it again?
- Me:
- Mike:
- Me: THE. DALEKS. HAVE. NO. CONCEPT. OF. PAST. EXPERIENCE.
- Doctor: Dinosaurs... on a spaceship!
- Me:
- Me:
- Me:
- My brother: Haha, it's like Snakes on a Plane. I'M SO TIRED OF THESE MOTHERFUCKING DINOSAURS ON THIS MOTHERFUCKING SPACESHIP.
