• [as Donna lays tied to a sacrificial alter] 

  Spurrina : The false prophet will surrender both her blood... and her breath.

  Donna Noble : I'll surrender you in a minute. Don't you dare!

  Spurrina : You will be silent!

  Donna Noble : Listen, Sister. You may have eyes on the back of your hands; but you'll have eyes on the back of your head by the time I'm finished with you! Let me GO!

  Spurrina : This prattling voice will cease, forever!

  [raises her knife to finish it] 

  The Doctor : [sardonically]  Oh, that'll be the day.

• Spurrina : No man is allowed to enter the Temple of Sybil!

  [Sybil was a soothsayer] 

  The Doctor : Oh that's all right.

  [mocking] 

  The Doctor : Just us girls. You know, I met Sybil once. Hell of a woman! Blimey, she could dance a tarantella! Nice teeth... Truth be told, I think she had a bit of a thing for me. I said it would never last, she said "I know." Well, she would.

  [to Donna, who is tied to an altar] 

  The Doctor : You all right there?

  Donna Noble : [sarcastic]  Oh, never better.

  The Doctor : I like the toga.

  Donna Noble : Thank you. And the ropes?

  The Doctor : Eh, not so much.

  [cuts her free]
