Lyrics
Now which one is larger?
That one.
But it looks smaller.
Well, that's because it's further away.
Exactly. If you could keep that exactly that distance away and have it here, the large one would fit inside the small one.
That's silly.
That's transdimensional engineering, a key Time Lord discovery.
Nearest Voc, subpriority red four, section five two, V17.
I don't have to explain anything to you! You're just a mechanical man, you're not real!
Do you know what this is?
No?
I must ask. I must ask that you tell no one about me.
Is there anyone left alive to tell?
Would you like a jelly baby?
Shut up!
A simple "no, thank you" would've been sufficient.
Why do you do it?
Do what?
Live this strange life.
Money.
Stand by. Prepare to accept computer signal.
Prepared to accept computer signal. Signal accepted. Secondary Command Channel open.
Here are your further orders, 7. Acknowledge.
Orders accept, accept, accept, accept, accept, accepted. Orders accepted. I, I, I understand. I understand.
Then go, brother. You are one of us now.
You're a robot detective. What does your computer min-typical robot. No imagination.
I require, I require evidence. Your suspicions are not evidence.
6, you will go now and kill Acting Commander Toos.
I will kill Commander Toos.
The Doctor.
I will kill the Doctor.
Leela.
I will kill Leela.
And I will kill the others.
