• [the second Doctor is peering around the office of Colonel Crichton, the Brigadiers replacement] 

  Second Doctor : You've had this place redecorated, haven't you?

  [shaking head] 

  Second Doctor : I don't like it.

• Second Doctor : [the Second Doctor's visit of his old friend Brigadier Allister Gordon Lethgridge Stewart is drawing to a close]  Now Brigadier I must bid hail and farewell. I shouldn't even be here at all. I'm not exactly breaking the laws of time but I am bending them a little.

  Brigadier : [Nodding slightly]  Yes. You never did care much for rules as I remember.

• Brigadier : [the Second Doctor and the Brigadier have only just arrived in the Zone on Gallifrey]  Charming spot, Doctor.

  Second Doctor : [crossly]  My dear, Brigadier, there's no use blaming me.

  Brigadier : You attract trouble, Doctor. You always did.

• Rassilon : Others have claimed immortality throughout the ages. It was given to them as it shall be given to you. Your place is prepared, Lord President Borusa.

  Borusa : Oh! Oh!

  [Lord Borusa looks backwards at the space Lord Rassilon has prepared for him. His face appears etched in stone. Lord Borusa's eyes twitch before turning to stone] 

  Rassilon : And what of you, Doctors? Do you claim immortality too?

  First Doctor : No!

  Second Doctor : No, no!

  Third Doctor : No!

  Fifth Doctor : That's quite alright.

• [the Second Doctor tries to get into U.N.I.T. headquarters] 

  Sergeant : I'm sorry, sir, you're not allowed in there!

  Second Doctor : Not allowed? Me? I'm allowed everywhere!

• Second Doctor : Have faith, Brigadier. Have I ever led you astray?

  Brigadier : On many occasions.

  Second Doctor : Yes, well, this will be the exception.

• Second Doctor : So, you're the latest model?

  Fifth Doctor : Yes, and the most agreeable.

  Second Doctor : Well, certainly the most impudent.

  Third Doctor : And our dress code hasn't improved much, has it?

  First Doctor : Neither our manners.

• Second Doctor : Goodbye... fancypants!

  Third Doctor : Scarecrow!

• Second Doctor : We can't allow it, you know.

  Third Doctor : The tomb is sealed for the best of reasons.

  First Doctor : And when we get back to our own time-streams, it must be sealed again.

  Second Doctor : Doctor, we need you! Join us!

  First Doctor : He can't. It's some kind of mind lock. Fight it, my boy, fight it! Concentrate!

  Second Doctor : We must be one!

  Fifth Doctor : [the first three Doctors break Borusa's control over the Fifth Doctor]  You see, Borusa? Together, we're a match for you!

  Borusa : Perhaps, but you will never overcome it.

  Fifth Doctor : But Chancellor Flavia will be here with her guards... or will you overcome the entire High Council?

  Rassilon : [suddenly appearing as a hologram above the crypt]  This is the Game of Rassilon!

  Borusa : I am Borusa, Lord and President of Gallifrey.

  Rassilon : Why have you come here?

  Borusa : I come to claim that which is promised.

  Rassilon : You seek immortality?

  Borusa : Yes.

  Rassilon : And who are these three?

  Borusa : These are my servants.

  Second Doctor : [angrily]  We most certainly are not!

  Third Doctor : Don't believe him!

  Fifth Doctor : That's nonsense!

  First Doctor : Don't believe them, Lord Rassilon! President Borusa speaks the truth!

  Rassilon : You believe that President Borusa deserves the immortality he seeks?

  First Doctor : Indeed I do.

  Rassilon : He shall have it. Take the ring. Do you claim immortality, Lord Borusa? You will not turn back?

  Borusa : Never!
