Quotes 

• The Doctor : Would you like a jelly baby?

  Leela : It's true then. They say the Evil One eats babies.

  The Doctor : You mustn't believe all they say.

• [first lines] 

  [the Doctor steps out of the TARDIS alone. He then turns to camera and muses aloud to himself] 

  The Doctor : I think this is not Hyde Park. Could be a nexial discontinuity. Must remember to overhaul those tracers. Put a knot in my hanky.

  [He pulls out his hanky, which already has a knot tied in it!] 

  The Doctor : Wonder what that was for! A little look around, Doctor? Why not.

• The Doctor : Never be certain of anything. It's a sign of weakness.

• The Doctor : [surrounded by hostiles, he holds a piece of candy before one's face]  Now drop your weapons or I'll kill him with this deadly jelly baby.

  Lugo : Kill him then.

  The Doctor : What?

  Lugo : Kill him then.

  The Doctor : [brings the candy to his own mouth]  I don't take orders from anyone.

  The Doctor : [defiantly bites off half the candy]  Take me to your leader.

  [the Doctor eats the remaining half of the candy] 

• The Doctor : [to Leela]  You don't understand. If they're preparing for a battle, they're hardly likely to send men on patrol on the off chance that you might come back.

  [two crossbow bolts hit the tree immediately in front of the Doctor] 

  The Doctor : On the other hand, I could be wrong about that.

• [Neeva leaps toward the Doctor with a two-handled device moving it up and around the Doctor, chanting] 

  The Doctor : [flinching away]  I'd be careful with that if I were you: it's an ultra-beam accelerator.

  Neeva : See how it fears the sacred relics of Xoanon!

  The Doctor : If there happens to be a charge in there, you could transform this whole village into a smoky hole in the ground.

  Neeva : Hear how it threatens us!

  The Doctor : Yes, well, uh, if you'll just untie my hands, I think I have an idea of what's going on, I may be able to help.

  Neeva : Hear how it squirms for release! Hehey ahya! Hagh, hagh, hagh, hagh, haghaa it cannot deceive us!

  The Doctor : [sarcastically]  Oh, no, I can see you're a person of very superior intellect.

  The Doctor : [to Andor]  Are you the leader of this tribe or is he?

• [Leela stabs a pursuing Sevateem tribe member with a paralytic and fatal Janis thorn and spreads his arms to block others from following through their escape passage] 

  The Doctor : [to Leela]  That wasn't necessary. Who licensed you to slaughter people? No more Janis thorns, understand? Ever.

• [last lines] 

  The Doctor : Well now. It seems I *have* been here before.

  Leela : That's the Evil One.

  The Doctor : Is it?

  [cut to reverse shot of them in front of a cliff wall with The Doctor's current face sculpted into it, The Doctor stepping forward for a clearer look] 

  The Doctor : I must've made quite an impression.

  [close shot of cliff face's face as end theme starts]
