DOCTOR: The manager of Cholmondeley's Bank and the manager of the Ritz know absolutely everybody between them. And then there's their respective staff. It won't take long for news to get round that a rich and mysterious stranger, and an even richer American heiress, have arrived in town.
PERI: So we start networking, making a few social contacts?
DOCTOR: Not a bit of it. We sit back and let them come to us.
PERI: Why?
DOCTOR: Because you can't get into society if you let them see you want to get into society. They'll only accept you if you make it clear you couldn't care less!
Peri finished her cocktail, and looked round the luxurious suite. Then she sighed theatrically.
PERI: I guess I can handle staying here for a few days
The Doctor looked pleased.
DOCTOR: Just until I can hire a house, of course. We'll rent somewhere furnished in a good part of town. Then there are servants to be hired...Oh, and we'll both be needing several new outfits. It'll mean a good deal of shopping, I'm afraid, especially for you...
Peri sighed again and stretched luxuriously.
PERI: In a good cause, Doctor, I'm prepared to make any sacrifice! How about another of these champagne cocktails?
