Captain Jack Harkness : Aww, sweet, look at these two. How come I never get any of that?
The Doctor : Buy me a drink first.
Captain Jack Harkness : You're such hard work.
The Doctor : But worth it.
[He grins in an extremely self-satisfied way]
-
Margaret Blaine : [gasping for breath after failing to escape The Doctor for the third time] This is persecution. Why can't you leave me alone? What did I ever do to you?
The Doctor : You tried to kill me and destroy this entire planet.
Margaret Blaine : Apart from that.
-
Idris Hopper : The Lord Mayor says... thank you for popping by to have a chat but, um, she's up to her eyes in paperwork... perhaps if you could make an appointment, for, for next week...?
The Doctor : She's climbing out the window, isn't she?
Idris Hopper : ...Yes, she is.
-
Mickey Smith : [after the Doctor explains why the TARDIS resembles a Police Public Call Box] But that's what I meant, there's no police boxes any more so doesn't it get noticed?
The Doctor : Ricky, let me tell you something about the human race. You put a mysterious blue box slap-bang in the middle of town, what do they do? Walk past it. Now stop your nagging. Let's go and explore.

Mickey Smith : [after hearing Margaret's plan to destroy the planet with her Nuclear power plant] But why would she do that? A great big explosion, she'd only end up killing herself.
Margaret Blaine : She's got a name, you know.
Mickey Smith : She's not even a she, she's a thing.
The Doctor : Oh, but she's clever.
[pulls a board off the model plant; flips it over to reveal a network of complex circuitry; studying it]
The Doctor : Fantastic!
Captain Jack Harkness : [looks at the board; impressed] Is that a tribophysical waveform macro-kinetic extrapolator?
The Doctor : Couldn't have put it better myself.
-
The Doctor : Cardiff, early 21st Century, and winds probably from the East. Trust me, safest place in the universe.
Margaret Blaine : This nuclear power station right in the heart of Cardiff City will bring jobs for all.
-
The Doctor : [looking at the project banner] How'd you think of the name?
Margaret Blaine : What? "Blaidd Drwg"? It's Welsh.
The Doctor : I know, but how did you think of it?
Margaret Blaine : Chose it at random, that's all. I don't know, just sounded good. Does it matter?
The Doctor : [turns around] "Blaidd Drwg."
Rose Tyler : What's it mean?
The Doctor : Bad Wolf.
Rose Tyler : [getting it] But... I've heard that before, "Bad Wolf", I've heard that *lots of times*.
The Doctor : Everywhere we go. Two words, following us. "Bad Wolf."
Rose Tyler : How can they be following us?
The Doctor : [concerned pause, then suddenly grins] Nah. Just a coincidence! Like hearing a word on the radio then hearing it all day. Never mind!
-
The Doctor : [Margaret just tried begging the Doctor to take her somewhere besides her homeworld where she would be executed] You've been in that skin suit too long. You've forgotten. There used to be a real Margaret Blaine. You killed her and stripped her and used the skin. You're pleading for mercy out of a dead woman's lips.

Mickey Smith : So, what are you doing in Cardiff? And who's Jumpin' Jack Flash? I mean, I don't mind you hanging out with Big Ears up here...
The Doctor : Oy!
Mickey Smith : Look in the mirror. But this guy, I don't know, he's kinda...
Captain Jack Harkness : Handsome?
Mickey Smith : More like cheesy.
Captain Jack Harkness : Early 21st Century slang, is cheesy good or bad?
Mickey Smith : It's bad.
Captain Jack Harkness : But bad means good, isn't that right?
The Doctor : Are you saying I'm not handsome?
