• The Doctor : [the Doctor and Peri are waiting in a prison cell to be executed]  I'm sorry I got you in to this Peri.

  Peri : It's alright. It's not your fault. I mean it's as much my fault as it is yours.

  The Doctor : Yes. Should never have followed those tracks. Curiosity's always been my downfall.

• Peri : Doctor, why do you wear a stick of celery in your lapel?

  The Doctor : Does it offend you?

  Peri : No, just curious.

  The Doctor : Safety precaution. I'm allergic to certain gases in the praxis range of the spectrum.

  Peri : Well how does the celery help?

  The Doctor : If the gas is present, the celery turns purple.

  Peri : And then what do you do?

  The Doctor : I eat the celery. If nothing else I'm sure it's good for my teeth.
