Quotes 

• The Doctor : I think I've figured out a way to restore 3 dimensions.

  [pauses] 

  The Doctor : At least at a small scale, say a door handle.

  Clara Oswald : So what's that then? A de-flattener?

  The Doctor : We're *not* calling it a de-flattener!

  [Hands the device to Clara] 

  The Doctor : This should be able to restore dimensions. See what I called it?

  Clara Oswald : [reads the symbols on the machine]  Two D is. Two Dee Iz?

  The Doctor : No. Twodis. It's called the Twodis.

  [sigh] 

  The Doctor : Why'd I even bother?

• Rigsy : You never did tell me your name.

  The Doctor : [through Clara's earpiece]  No time to fraternise. Come on, get rid of him.

  Clara Oswald : I'm, um... I'm the Doctor.

  The Doctor : Don't you dare!

  Clara Oswald : Doctor Oswald.

  [clears throat] 

  Clara Oswald : But you can call me Clara.

• Rigsy : So, uh, what are you a doctor of?

  The Doctor : [through Clara's earpiece]  Of lies.

  Clara Oswald : Well, I'm usually quite vague about that. I think I just picked the title 'cause it makes me sound important.

• Fenton : And who are you when you're at home, love?

  Clara Oswald : [shows him the psychic paper]  Health & Safety. This subway is unsafe. Everyone needs to leave right now.

  Fenton : This is blank. Try again, sweetheart.

  The Doctor : [in Clara's earpiece]  What?

  Clara Oswald : [simultaneously]  What?

  The Doctor : It takes quite a lack of imagination to beat psychic paper.

• The Doctor : Now listen, you're going to need this.

  [hands her the sonic screwdriver and psychic paper through the tiny Tardis door] 

  Clara Oswald : Ow, wow! This is an honour. Does this mean I'm you now?

  The Doctor : No, it does not. So don't get any ideas.

• The Doctor : [through her earpiece]  Clara, do you want the good news or the bad news?

  Clara Oswald : [shouting while running]  We're in the bad news! I'm living the bad news!

• Clara Oswald : Fine, I'll tell you who I am.

  [stage-whispers into Fenton's ear] 

  Clara Oswald : I'm the one chance you've got of staying alive.

• Clara Oswald : I quite liked that hairband.

• The Doctor : It's true that people with hope tend to run faster, whereas people who think they're doomed...

  Clara Oswald : Dawdle. End up dead.

• Clara Oswald : Rule number one of being the Doctor: use your enemy's power against them.
