Quotes
-
Dr. Who : Yes, yes you must find someone who you can trust. Someone in a high enough position that may be able to help.
Bret Vyon : Well, Karlton is the man in charge of all Space Security. But he's very close to Chen.
Steven : Yes, this chap Karlton, he may be part of the plan with the Daleks.
Bret Vyon : It's possible...
Katarina : Whatever's happening?
Dr. Who : I think we're changing course!
Bret Vyon : The steering boosters won't fire! I can't get her round.
Steven : Switch to manual control!
Bret Vyon : I can't!... We're picking up speed!
Dr. Who : You know, I believe we're approaching the gravitation point of that planet.
Bret Vyon : [snaps] Desperus!
Dr. Who : Mm. Has it any kind of atmosphere?
Bret Vyon : Yes. But we can't get off there, we'll never be able to get off again.
Steven : Why not? What's wrong with it?
Bret Vyon : Desperus is the penal planet of the Solar System.
Dr. Who : Well, if it's one of your prison planets, surely there are guards and warders there to help us.
Bret Vyon : They're aren't any. The only craft which stop there are prison ships bringing other criminals. If we crash there, we'll be left there to rot for the rest of our lives away.
Dr. Who : You must try to land softly somewhere!
Bret Vyon : I can't! This vessel is out of my control!

[last lines]
Dr. Who : [joyfully] Look! Look! The Daleks' ship made a bad landing. That's gives us the time we need.
Steven : [also joyfully] We made it!
Bret Vyon : Next stop Earth.
Dr. Who : Oh, I'm so glad to hear that, young man. Now, you got some thinking to do.
[to Katarina]
Dr. Who : Katarina, check up on that door and see that it is secure.
Steven : Do you realise...
[Katarina screams as Kirksen bursts through the internal door. He seizes her with one hand, and pulls her round in front of him like a shield. In his other hand he is brandishing Bors' knife]
