Quotes 

• Chessene : We must ask Stike to make a descreet landing. This planet is greatly over-populated.

  Shockeye : By the time I leave it Madam, that may not be a problem.

  [chuckles] 

  Shockeye : Oh, did you learn much from the dead mind?

  Chessene : It was a puny thing: This region of the planet is called Andalucia. We are four kilometers from the city of Seville.

  Shockeye : Oh, ho, and is the eating good there?

  Chessene : Dona Arana had little interest in food. Her mind was full of religion.

  Shockeye : [turning disagreeable]  Religion? I'm not interested in the beliefs of primitives - only in what they taste like!

• Shockeye : "The gratification of pleasure is the sole motive of action." Is that not our law?

  Chessene : I still accept it, but there are pleasures other than the purely sensual.

  Shockeye : For you, perhaps. Fortunately, I have not been augmented.

  Chessene : Take care. Your purity could easily become insufferable.

• Shockeye : [the TARDIS materialises into a kitchen]  How dare you? How dare you transmat that object into my kitchens?

  The Second Doctor : How dare you have the impertinence to address me like that?

• Chessene : [newly come to Earth, scanning the grounds of a hacienda]  Excellent! I detect only one occupant: A female.

  Shockeye : Oh, don't use the gas injector, Madam. They give the flesh an acrid taste. I'll slaughter it myself.

  Chessene : It might not be edible, Shockeye. I detect great age.

  [happily] 

  Chessene : Come!

• Shockeye : [eating fruit. Spits it out]  Insipid muck!

  Varl : Our leader is in decent orbit.

  Shockeye : Our leader is Chessene o' the Franzine Grig.

  Varl : Marshal Stike commands the Ninth Sontaran Battle Group!

  Shockeye : He doesn't command anything here. Chessene planned this operation.

  Varl : You will see! We Sontarans lead. We never follow.

  Shockeye : Tell him to come in on full mufflers. And that's an order from Chessene!

• Shockeye : [about Jamie]  Let me buy it from you.

  The Second Doctor : My companion is not for sale!

  Shockeye : I promise you, Lord, no chef in the nine planets would do more to bring out the flavor of the beast.

• Shockeye : Have you decided on our destination?

  Chessene : It's unimportant.

  Shockeye : Earth?

  Chessene : If you wish, but why Earth?

  Shockeye : I have a desire to taste one of these human beasts, madam. The meat looks so white and ransomly layered on the bone. A sure sign of a tasty animal.
