Mickey Smith : So that Doctor, eh?
Rose Tyler : I don't know what you're talking about.

Rose Tyler : Oh, Cleopatra! He mentioned her once.
Mickey Smith : Yeah, but he called her Cleo.

Rose Tyler : [the Doctor enters, singing "I Could Have Danced All Night", seemingly drunk] Oh, look what the cat dragged in, the oncoming storm.
The Doctor : Oh, you sound just like your mother.
Rose Tyler : What have you been doing, where've you been?
The Doctor : Well, among other things, I *think* I just invented the banana daiquiri a couple of centuries early. Do you know they'd never seen a banana before? Always take a banana to a party, Rose, bananas are good.
[to the droid]
The Doctor : Oh, brilliant, it's you! You're my favorite, you are, you are the best, you know why? Cause you're so thick! You're Mr. Thick Thick Thickety Thick-face from Thick-town, Thickania. And so's your dad!

[32-year-old Reinette barges past Rose and Mickey behind the tapestry and finds herself on the spaceship at the Dagmar Cluster, two and a half galaxies away from Earth, in the 51st Century, roughly 3300 years in her future]
Reinette Poisson : This is his world.
[the members of the royal court start screaming somewhere in the distance]
Reinette Poisson : What was that?
Mickey Smith : [hesitates, then to Rose] The time window. The Doctor fixed an audio link.
Reinette Poisson : Those screams... Is that my future?
Rose Tyler : Yeah, I'm sorry.
Reinette Poisson : Then I must take the slower path.
Madame Du Pompadour : [echoing in the halls] Are you there? Can you hear me? I need you, now! You promised! The clock on the mantel is broken!
Reinette Poisson : [fearful] Th- that's my voice.
Madame Du Pompadour : It is time!
Mickey Smith : Rose, come on, we gotta go. There's- there's a problem.
Rose Tyler : Give me a moment.
[Mickey hurries down the corridor of the ship]
Rose Tyler : Are you okay?
Reinette Poisson : No, I'm very afraid. But you and I both know, don't we Rose? The Doctor is worth the monsters.
[Reinette returns through the time window behind the tapestry to her own time]
Madame Du Pompadour : [echoing] Doctor! Doctor!
[in the ballroom, the clockwork service droids corner the royal court]
Madame Du Pompadour : [37 years old, speaking into her fireplace] Doctor!
King Louis : We must go! No one is coming to help us!
[a clockwork man appproaches and stands in the doorway. Madame Du Pompadour stands, turns, and gasps as memories flash in her mind of him in her bedroom in 1727 as 6-years-old Reinette. Two more costumed droids arrive, flanking him, completely blocking her and King Louis XV's egress]
Clockwork Man : You are complete. You will come.
-
Rose Tyler : Are you okay?
Reinette Poisson : No, I'm not. But you and I both know, don't we, Rose, that the Doctor is worth the monsters.
-
The Doctor : Let me tell you, the French know how to throw a party!
Rose Tyler : Where have you been?
The Doctor : I think I just invented the banana daquiri a couple centuries early... Always take a banana to a party, Rose. Bananas are good.
-
Rose Tyler : He will be there when you need him. That's the way it gotta be.
Madame Du Pompadour : It is the way that has always been. The monster and the doctor. It seems you cannot have one without the other.
-
The Doctor : Rose, take Arthur, follow it. Don't approach it, just go, go, go!
Rose Tyler : Arthur?
The Doctor : Good name for a horse.
Rose Tyler : No, you're not keeping the horse.
The Doctor : I let you keep Mickey!
-
The Doctor : [wandering in singing, glass in hand] I could have *spread my wings* and done a thou-have you *met* the French? My... *GOD*, they know how to party.
Rose Tyler : Oh, look what the cat dragged in, the Oncoming Storm.
The Doctor : Ooh, you sound just like your mother.
Rose Tyler : What have you been doing all this time? Where've you *been*?
The Doctor : Well, among other things, I *think* I might have just invented the banana daiquiri a few centuries early. Do you know, they'd never even seen a banana before? Always take a banana to a party, Rose. Bananas are good.
[turning to the robot]
The Doctor : Oh, it's you! You're my favorite, you are. You know why? Cause you're so... thick! You're Mr. Thick Thick Thickety Thickface from Thicktown, Thickania.
[turns to walk away]
The Doctor : And so's your dad!
The Doctor : [gives Rose a look as if to say 'I showed him, didn't I?' or 'How do you like them apples?']
-
Rose Tyler : Mickey Smith, meet the universe. See anything you like?
-
The Doctor : [drunk] Have you met the French? My God they know how to party!
Rose Tyler : Oh look at what the cat dragged in, the oncoming storm.
The Doctor : You sound just like your mother.
Rose Tyler : What have you been doing? Where have you been?
The Doctor : Well, among other things, I *think* I may have just invented the banana daiquiri a few centuries early.
