— Eighth Doctor, Doctor Who (The TV Movie)

DOCTOR: Grace, let me in. We can sit down, we can have a cup of tea, we can talk about this reasonably.

DOCTOR: I thought you were a doctor!

DOCTOR: Yes, I suppose I am. Jelly baby, officer?

DOCTOR: I... am... the Doctor!

GRACE: Good! (beat) Now do that again.

GRACE: What is it they say?

DOCTOR: Yeah they say that on my planet too.

DOCTOR: Yes!

GRACE: What?

DOCTOR: These shoes! They fit perfectly. Yes.

(The Doctor runs off, leaving Grace open-mouthed at the non-sequiturs.)
