Quotes
-
Colonel Mace : [talking about U.N.I.T. & all their operations] A modern UNIT for the modern world.
Donna Noble : What and that mean's arresting ordinary factory workers? In the streets? In broad daylight? It's more like Guantanamo Bay out there. Donna, by the way. Donna Noble; since you didn't ask. I'll have a salute.
[Colonel Mace, who is taken aback at her outburst, looks at the Doctor; the Doctor just give a 'you better do as she says' look; the Colonel salutes her]
Colonel Mace : Mamm.
Donna Noble : Thank you.

Colonel Mace : Jenkins.
Ross Jenkins : Sir!
Colonel Mace : You will accompany the Doctor; take orders from him.
The Doctor : Yeah, I don't do orders.
Colonel Mace : Any sign of trouble get Jenkins to declare a code red. And good luck, Sir.
[salutes the Doctor]
The Doctor : I said no salutes.
Colonel Mace : [as he walks away] Now you're giving orders.
The Doctor : [half smiling] Little bit cheeky, aren't we?

The Doctor : You are not coming with me. I want to talk to this Luke Rattigan, not point a gun at him.
Colonel Mace : It's 10 miles outside London. How are you going to get there?
The Doctor : Well then give me a jeep.
Colonel Mace : According to the records, you travel by TARDIS.
The Doctor : Yes, but if there is a danger of hostile aliens, I think it's best o keep a super-duper Time Machine away from the front lines.
Colonel Mace : I see; so then you *do* have weapons but choose to keep them hidden.
