Do Nothing

  • last month

ROMANA: The clipboard marks the spot -- I'll stand guard.

(The Doctor climbs through the hole and up a ladder. When he's out of sight, Romana enters and heads for a staircase. The Doctor reaches the top of the ladder.)

RORVIK: Is this what you're looking for, Doctor?
(Rorvik drops the clipboard.)

Tom: Look here, Rorvik.
You've got to STOP this back-blast. You'll kill us all.

Rorvik, The Slaver-Captain :
So YOU Say, Doctor. I Say, It's the only way OUT of here.

(Rorvik stands on The Doctor's fingers.)

Tom : You can't BLAST through those mirrors.
You must REALISE by now, it just
throws The Energy straight BACK.

Rorvik, The Slaver-Captain :
They've GOT to Break.
Everything BREAKS eventually.

(He kicks The Doctor back down the ladder, comes after him and starts to strangle him with his own scarf. Romana arrives and tries hitting Rorvik with the clipboard.)

Tom : Never mind the clipboard, short the cables.

(The Doctor gives Romana the manacles.)

Tom: Drain the main power line. Earth it to the ladder.

ROMANA: I know -- I've already done it.

(Rorvik lets The Doctor go and heads
for the ladder to undo the damage.)

Tom : Biroc? What are YOU Doing Here?

BIROC: Nothing.

Tom: It's alright for YOU --

BIROC: And for you, too. Do Nothing.

Tom : Do Nothing?

ROMANA: Of course, Doctor. Don't you see?

Tom : Yes, that's right - Do Nothing,

.......if it's the right *sort* of Nothing.

(They join hands with Biroc and fade away.
Rorvik has removed the manacles from the cable.)

Rorvik, The Slaver-Captain :
RUN, Doctor -- SCURRY off, back to your blue BOX.
You're like ALL the rest.... Lizards when there's
A Man's Work to Be Done -- I'm SICK of Your Kind;
Faint-hearted, DO-nothing, lily-livered DEADweights.

This is The End for ALL of You!
I'm FINALLY Getting Something DONE!
Bwahahahaha!
