- Morgaine: Then, Merlin...let this be our last battlefield!
- The Doctor: I'd just like to say three things.
- Bambera: What?

(The Doctor and Ace are escorted out.)
- Ace: That was five things.
- The Doctor: She didn't even notice.
- Morgaine: What can you see?
- Mordred: A flying machine. 'Tis like an ornithopter but with whirling blades for wings.
- Morgaine: The people of this world are obsessed with machinery.
- Mordred: It would seem so.
- Morgaine: Well, then. Let us teach them the limitaions of their technologies.
(She raises her hand and Lethbridge-Stewart's helicopter malfunctions.)
- Mordred: 'Tis a shrine...to those fallen in battle.
- Morgaine: Ah. They are not the savages you lead us to believe. We fought on their soil without proper respect for the dead.
- Mordred: Mother, I...
- Morgaine: You have dishonored us, Mordred. What is victory without honor?
- Morgaine: Surrender to me what is mine by right of conquest. Give me Excalibur.
- Ace: Never.
- Morgaine: Then you will be given over to the Destroyer and be come his handmaidens...in Hell.
