DONNA: Sometimes I think there's something missing. Like I had something lovely, and it's gone. And I… I kind of… I kind of look to the side, like… like something should be there, but it's not. And I know I've got Rose and Shaun and you, and the biggest sausage roll I've ever seen, frankly. I should be happy. I should be really happy. But some nights… I lie in bed thinking "What have I lost?"

— Donna Noble, The Star Beast

MEEP: Meep, meep!

ROSE: Oh, my God. Hello. I mean, wow. What are you?

MEEP: Meep, meep.

ROSE: My name is Rose. I'm a human. What happened? Did you crash?

ROSE: You're assuming "he" as a pronoun?

DOCTOR: True. Yes. Sorry. Good point. Are you he or she or they?

MEEP: My chosen pronoun is the definite article. I am always The Meep.

DOCTOR: Oh. I do that.

MEEP: The Wrarth Warriors. They cultivate Meepkind for our beautiful fur. But then the galaxy said, "No more fur. It's wrong." So the Wrarth Warriors slaughtered their livestock.

DOCTOR: You're a fashion victim. Sorry.

MEEP: Oh, to hell with this. Exhibit C! No stun guns for me! Just die!

— Beep the Meep, The Star Beast

DONNA: We could be living somewhere far away from here. Monte Carlo. Switzerland. And you'd be safe, Rose. It's all my fault. I gave away that lottery money.

DOCTOR: Why?

DONNA: Because… there are places out there where people are in danger and in pain and fear. And I could help. It just felt like the sort of thing he would do.

DOCTOR: You've got weapons in your wheelchair?

SHIRLEY: We all have.

DONNA: How long have I got to live?

DONNA: Best 55 seconds of my life, because I get to do this.

COMPUTER: Ignition halted.

DONNA: Donna Noble is descending.

DONNA: Why did this face come back?

DOCTOR: I don't know.

DOCTOR: I really do remember, though. Every second with you. I'm so glad you're back, cos it killed me, Donna. It killed me, it killed me, it killed me.

— Fourteenth Doctor, The Star Beast

DONNA: We can have more days, can't we? I mean, why is it such a big goodbye with you? Why is it one last trip? Cos you could visit with my family. We could do outrageous things, like have tea, or dinner, and a laugh. And Rose's school play. Well, maybe not that. She can't act. She's terrible. I don't know how to tell her. But the point is, you've been given a second chance. You can do things different this time. So why don't you do something completely new, and have some friends?

— Donna Noble, The Star Beast

DONNA: What's happening?

DOCTOR: I've got no idea. It's completely out of control! We could end up anywhere in Time and Space!
