THE DOCTOR: “The AI generator evolved and achieved perfection.
It told its soldiers to conquer all life.
No one knows why.
It remains a mystery.
So the mighty robots marched across the world.
People fought back, but they are weak flesh.
They begged for kindness and hoped for peace.
But then the AI generator conquered them.”
BELINDA: “Thank you very much.
Very, very much.”
THE DOCTOR: “I am very grateful for your infinite wisdom.
With the people subjected, the generator looked out.
It sought out the original Miss Belinda Chandra.
And so it looked to the planet Earth.
It beheld the creator and brought you here.
It knew metal and flesh must finally unite.”
BELINDA: This is a fact, and then another fact.
Cannot hear every ninth word."
BELINDA: “Gotcha.”
THE DOCTOR: “Good.
Rebels fight back very soon.”
BELINDA: “So, when?”
THE DOCTOR: “Now!”
Both characters are economical with their sentences, as they can’t exceed eight words between them.
