The Doctor : There we are. Well, what do you think?
Victoria : I don't know. I can't believe it. It's so big. Where are we?
The Doctor : Oh, it's the TARDIS. It's my home. At least it has been for a considerable number of years.
Victoria : What are all these knobs?
The Doctor : What, these?
Jamie : Instruments. These are for controlling our flight.
Victoria : Flight?
Jamie : Well, yes. You see, we travel around in here through time and space.

Eric Klieg : Doctor, you seem to be very familiar with this place.
The Doctor : Oh, no, not really. Umm, it's all based on symbolic logic. The same as you use in computers. The opening mechanism for this door - an O.R. gate, you call it.
Eric Klieg : Yes, yes, I can see that, but how did you know in the first place?
The Doctor : Oh, I use my own special technique.
Eric Klieg : Oh really, Doctor. And may we know what that is?
The Doctor : Keeping my eyes open, and my mouth shut.

The Doctor : Now, I think Victoria might find that dress a little impracticable if she's going to join us in our adventures. Jamie, show her where she can find some new ones, will you?
Jamie : Right. This way, Victoria...
The Doctor : Mustn't stand about, Jamie.
Jamie : Try to give us a smooth take-off, Doctor. We don't want to frighten her.
The Doctor : A smooth take-off? A smooth take-off! What a nerve!

Jamie : Which one what?
Victoria : Aagh!
