Madame Vastra : Jenny and I are married, yet, for appearances' sake, we maintain a pretense in public that she is my maid.
Jenny : Doesn't exactly explain why I'm pouring tea for you in private.
Madame Vastra : Hush, now.
Jenny : Good pretense, isn't it?
-
Inspector Gregson : Well... It just laid an egg.
Madame Vastra : It dropped a blue box marked police out of its mouth, your grasp on biology troubles me.

Clara : Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor, last of the Five Good and stoic philosopher.
Madame Vastra : Superlative bass guitarist. The Doctor really knows how to put a band together.
Clara : And the only pin-up I ever had on my wall when I was 15, only one I ever had.

Madame Vastra : Is it choking?
Jenny : There seems to be something lodged in its throat.
Inspector Gregson : Well, how could it time-travel?
Madame Vastra : I don't know. Perhaps it was something it ate.

Madame Vastra : The Doctor regenerated in your presence. The young man disappeared, the veil lifted. He trusted you. Are you judging him?
