DOCTOR. And now I'm looking at your fair companion. Sometimes you have good taste. Sometimes not.
STRANGER. And sometimes you have the misfortune to have the same taste as I.
DOCTOR. That wasn't a kind remark! But you've killed me twice in your lifetime; so go on.
STRANGER (to the WOMAN). Let's get away from here.
DOCTOR. You know when I'm near you. You feel my presence from afar. And I shall reach you, as the thunder will, whether you hide in the depths of the earth or of the sea.... Try to escape me, if you can!
STRANGER (to the WOMAN). Come with me. Lead me... I can't see....
WOMAN. No, I don't want to go yet. I don't want to be bored.
DOCTOR. You're right there, daughter of joy! Life's hard enough without taking on yourself the sorrows others have brought on themselves. That man won't bear his own sorrows, but makes his wife shoulder the burden for him.
STRANGER. What's that? Wait! She bore false witness of a breach of the peace and attempted murder!
DOCTOR. Now he's putting the blame on her!
