Quotes 

• Avon : It's superstitious halfwits like you that hold back every advance we make!

  Orac : And arrogance, Avon, likes yours and Muller's, which threatened to destroy...

• Kerr Avon : I'll be back.

• [Scorpio's life support has failed, leaving Tarrant and Vila stranded] 

  Kerr Avon : [to Orac]  Situation.

  Orac : Total systems failure.

  Dayna Mellanby : They'll be dying up there!

  Kerr Avon : Not yet!

  Soolin : They won't have long.

  Kerr Avon : They have oxygen units and suits.

  Dayna Mellanby : In the dark? Under those conditions?

  Kerr Avon : Orac?

  Orac : They must be left there!

  Kerr Avon : To die?

  Orac : There is no option. To reopen teleport contact could expose the base to undefined systems influence.

  [pause] 

  Kerr Avon : Oh, you'll have to do better than that, Orac, if you expect me to *kill* them.

• [Avon has ordered Orac to restore teleport contact with Scorpio so they can rescue Vila and Tarrant] 

  Kerr Avon : Is it restored?

  Orac : I am obliged to do as you tell me, even though I know it to be wrong.

  Kerr Avon : Only following orders? That's not very original, Orac.

  Orac : There is nothing very original about domination, as you will discover.

• [Slave is refusing to follow the crew's orders] 

  Kerr Avon : [on communicator]  What's happening?

  Del Tarrant : Slave appears to have thrown off his chains.
