• Bill : [to The Doctor]  I waited... I waited... I waited for you.

• Bill : Doctor, this is a bad idea.

  The Doctor : No, it's a GOOD idea. A test run. She thinks she can be me - let's try her out.

  Bill : Why?

  The Doctor : She got us home from Mars.

  Bill : She's a murderer!

  The Doctor : [after a pause]  Enjoying your bacon sandwich?

  Bill : Why?

  The Doctor : Because it had a mummy and a daddy. Go tell a pig about your moral highground.

• [Opening shot, the glowing end of a large spacecraft, engines pulling an inferno inwards. The view moves down its side. Lingering occasionally at windows, we see an industrial city and the number 1056, then a green, hilly terrain under a blue sky, then plains full of wheat. Pulling back, the camera looks down the remaining length of the ship, pointing towards a black hole and its violent accretion disk as rocks fall toward it and explode. At the end of the ship facing the black hold is a small blister of a room jutting out from the center of a large, mostly featureless bulkhead. Inside, a video camera comes alert as the sound of the TARDIS materialisation begins. Solidifying, the door opens and out walks...] 

  Missy : Hello. I'm Doctor Who.

  [one of the cameras twitches, as if saying, "No," then locks onto her face as she poses] 

  Missy : And these are my plucky assistants...

  [Bill and Nardole walk out of the TARDIS, glumly] 

  Missy : Thing One, and the other one.

  Nardole : Bill, Nardole.

  [Missy walks to the center of the room] 

  Missy : We picked up your distress call...

  [Missy smiles and winks exaggeratedly] 

  Missy : and here we are to help...

  [Missy spins and twirls her closed umbrella over her head] 

  Missy : like awesome heroes.

  Bill : Yeah, no, we're not assistants, that's...

  Missy : Ok, right, what- So, what does he call you, companions? Pets? Shnacks?

• Bill : Yeah, but he's called 'The Doctor,' so...

  Missy : [explaining to Bill]  Well, he says. 'I'm "The Doctor,"' and they say, 'Doctor who?' See, I'm cutting to the chase, baby. I'm streamlinin'. I'm saving us ac-tu-al mi-nutes.

  Bill : Yeah, okay. Whatever.

• Bill : Nobody knows the Doctor's real name.

  Missy : I do because I grew up with him, and his real name is 'Doctor Who'.

  The Doctor : Bill, she's just trying to wind you up.

• Razor : You want the good tea or the bad tea?

  Bill : What's the difference?

  Razor : I call one "good", one "bad".

  Bill : Uh, I'll take the good one.

  Razor : Excellent, positive attitude. Will help with the horror to come.

  Bill : What horror?

  Razor : Mainly the tea.
