- Dr. Who: [staring at a map en route to the Daleks' base of operations] We'll have to bypass Watford. The place is full of Daleks!
- Dr. Who: Your bomb is designed to slide down this shaft, strike a fracture in the Earth's inner surface, and so release the magnetic core of our planet. But the fracture is near the meeting point of the magnetic influence of the North and South poles. One mistake, one deviation in the aiming of your bomb and enough magnetic energy will be released to destroy you.
- Daleks: There will be no mistake! These prisoners are to be exterminated!
- Dr. Who: One moment. You must listen to me. If you spare us, I can help you. I can show you how to neutralize this magnetism, so that your plan can be carried out with no danger to yourselves.
- Roboman Nine: Section. Roboman Nine as ordered. Halt!
- Daleks: Speak quickly!
- Dr. Who: But I, I'll show you. Look!
- [runs to the intercom]
- Dr. Who: Attentoon all Robomen! Attack the Daleks!
- Dr. Who: Quite remarkable!
- Tom Campbell: It's a flying saucer.
- Dr. Who: Yes. It's a very apt description.
- Daleks: [radio transmission] Attention! Attention! Survivors of London, the Daleks are the Masters of Earth.
- Susan: Daleks?
- Daleks: [radio transmission] Surrender now and you will live. Resist - and you will be exterminated! Show yourselves in the streets immediately and obey the orders of your Masters - the Daleks.
- Dortmun: Obey motorized dust bins? We'll see about that.
- Dr. Who: See, with everything else, Susie, there's always an answer to be found, if you only dig deep enough.
- Daleks: [radio transmission] Rebels of London, this is our final warning. Leave your hiding places. Show yourselves in the streets.
- Tom Campbell: Your bombs were no good. We didn't have a chance.
- Daleks: We've got to go on resisting. We must!
- Tom Campbell: But you can't fight metal with flesh and blood.
