Rose (1x01)
Rose: Who were they then, students? Is this a student thing or what?
Doctor: Why would they be students?
Rose: I don't know.
Doctor: Well, you said it!
Rose: Because to get that many people dressed up and being silly, they got to be students.
Doctor: That makes sense! Well done.
Rose: Thanks.
Doctor: They're not students.
Rose: Whoever they are, when Wilson finds them he's going to call the police.
Doctor: Who's Wilson?
Rose: Chief electrician.
Doctor: Wilson's dead.
Doctor: I'm the Doctor, by the way, what's your name?
Rose: Rose.
Doctor: Nice to meet you, Rose. Run for your life.
Mickey: What're you drinking? Tea? No no no, that's no good, that's no good. You're in shock, you need something stronger.
Rose: Why?
Mickey: You deserve a proper drink. You and me, we're going down the pub, my treat. How about it?
Rose: Is there a match on?
Mickey: I'm just thinking about you, babe!
Rose: There's a match on, ain't there?
Mickey: Well, that's not the point. We could catch the last five minutes.
Jackie: And I'm not joking about getting compensation. You've had genuine shock and trauma! Arianna got two thousand quid off the council just because the old man behind the desk said she looked Greek! I know she is Greek, but that's not the point.
Doctor: What're you doing here?
Rose: I live here.
Doctor: Well, what do you do that for?
Rose: Because I do! And I'm only at home because someone blew up my job.
Doctor: Must've got the wrong signal. You're not plastic, are you? No, bonehead. Bye, then!
Jackie: She deserves compensation.
Doctor: We're talking millions.
Jackie: I'm in my dressing gown.
Doctor: Yes, you are.
Jackie: There's a strange man in my bedroom.
Doctor: Yes, there is.
Jackie: Well, anything could happen.
Doctor: No.
Doctor: That won't last, he's gay and she's an alien.
Rose: Hold on a minute, you can't just go swanning off.
Doctor: Yes I can. Here I am, this is me, swanning off. See ya!
Rose: That arm was moving, it tried to kill me!
Doctor: Ten out of ten for observation.
Doctor: Is that supposed to sound tough?
Rose: Sort of.
Doctor: Doesn't work.
Rose: Who are you?
Doctor: I told you! The Doctor.
Rose: Yeah. But Doctor what?
Doctor: Just the Doctor.
Rose: The Doctor.
Doctor: Hello!
Rose: Is that supposed to sound impressive?
Doctor: Sort of.
Rose: How come those plastic things keep coming after me?
Doctor: Oh! Suddenly the entire world revolves around you! You were just an accident. You got in the way, that's all.
Rose: It tried to kill me!
Doctor: It was after me, not you! Last night, in the shop, I was there, you blundered in. Almost ruined the whole thing. This morning, I was tracking it down, it was tracking me down...the only reason it fixed on you is that you met me.
Rose: So, what you're saying is, the entire world revolves around you.
Doctor: Sort of, yeah.
Rose: You're full of it!
Doctor: Sort of, yeah.
Rose: Okay, start from the beginning. If you're gonna go with this living plastic--and I don't even believe that--but if we do...how did you kill it?
Doctor: The thing controlling it projects life into the arm. I cut off the signal, dead.
Rose: So that's radio control?
Doctor: Thought control. (Pause) Are you all right?
Rose: Yeah. So, who's controlling it then?
Doctor: Long story.
Rose: But what's it all for? I mean, shop window dummies, what's that about? Is someone trying to take over Britain's shops?
Doctor: No.
Rose: I know.
Doctor: It's not a price war! (Pause) They want to overthrow the human race and destroy you. Do you believe me?
Rose: No.
Doctor: But you're still listening.
Doctor: Do you know like we were saying? About the Earth revolving? It's like when you were a kid. The first time they tell you the world's turning and you just can't quite believe it because everything looks like it's standing still. I can feel it.
The turn of the Earth. The ground beneath our feet is spinning at a thousand miles an hour, and the entire planet is hurtling around the sun at sixty-seven thousand miles an hour. And I can feel it. We're falling through space, you and me. Clinging to the skin of this tiny little world, and if we let go...that's who I am. Now, forget me, Rose Tyler. Go home.
Rose: He's safe, he's got a wife and kids.
Mickey: Yeah, but who told you that? He did! That's exactly what an Internet lunatic murderer would say.
Clive: Hello, you must be Rose. I'm Clive. Obviously!
Rose: I better tell you now, my boyfriend's waiting in the car, just in case you're going to kill me.
Clive: No, good point. No murders.
Clive: The Doctor is a legend woven throughout history. When disaster comes, he's there. He brings a storm in his wake. And he has one constant companion.
Rose: Who's that?
Clive: Death.
Rose: I'm sorry, wasn't I talking about me for a second?
Rose: We can't hide inside a wooden box!
Rose: It's going to follow us!
Doctor: The assembled hoards of Genghis Khan couldn't get through that door, and believe me, they've tried.
Doctor: Where do you want to start?
Rose: Um, the inside's bigger than the outside?
Doctor: Yes.
Rose: It's alien.
Doctor: Yup.
Rose: Are you alien?
Doctor: Yes. Is that all right?
Rose: Yeah.
Doctor: That's okay. Culture shock. Happens to the best of us.
Rose: Did they kill him? Mickey? Did they kill Mickey? Is he dead?
Doctor: Oh. Didn't think of that.
Rose: He's my boyfriend. You pulled off his head! They copied him and you didn't even think? And now you're just going to let him melt?
Rose: Mickey! I'll have to tell his mother he's dead, and you just went and forgot him again! You were right, you are alien.
Doctor: Look, if I did forget some kid called Mickey--
Rose: Yeah, he's not a kid.
Doctor: It's because I'm trying to save the life of every stupid ape blundering on top of this planet, all right?
Rose: If you are an alien, then how come you sound like you're from the North?
Doctor: Lots of planets have a North!
Doctor: Think of it. Plastic, all over the world. Every artificial thing waiting to come alive. The shop window dummies, the phones, the wires, the cables--
Rose: The breast implants.
Doctor: If I might observe, you infiltrated this civilization by means of warp shunt technology. So, may I suggest, with the greatest respect, that you shunt off?
Rose: I've got no A Levels, no job, no future...but I'll tell you what I have got. Jericho Street Junior School under-7's gymnastics team. I got the bronze!
Doctor: By the way, did I mention it also travels in time?
Rose: Thanks.
Mickey: Thanks for what?
Rose: Exactly.
