Let's now go through the various messages displayed when the above variables are employed.
Thing
If I type:
{{qotw|thing=gravity globe}}
I'll get:
- Elizabeth Klein: Schmidt called it "the TARDIS". It meant nothing to me. I'd never heard that name until I met you. How on Earth could Schmidt know it?
- Seventh Doctor:: The memory cheats. Perhaps your memory is playing tricks with you. I used to think Professor X was better in the sixties until I went back and watched it again. even Vault of the Cyborgs.
- Klein: No, I know what I heard. He definitely said, "TARDIS".
- Seventh Doctor: Anyway it's all in the past now. Well, a version of the past. Your past, to be more precise.
- Klein: How could Schmidt have known? Yet another thing to haunt me the rest of my life. I can't let it go. Somehow, I just know that it's important. I can feel it.
