How predictable!' 'I prefer reliable.' - A Slitheen, and Sarah Jane * 'Your work is spoken of with great regard back home.' 'Interstellar fame, eh, Sarah Jane?' - The Blathereen and Rani, on Sarah Jane * 'If I make this public, it'll change everything. No more hiding in the shadows, saving the world in secret. I'll be front page news.' 'Sarah Jane Smith - ambassador for Earth, eh?' - Sarah and Rani * 'Luke, you're all I've really got. Everything else - it's all meaningless, all of it. Makes no sense without you.' - Sarah * 'This is loaded with vinegar. You're going to do exactly as I say, or I'll blast you to oblivion.' - Sarah, to the Blathereen * 'My son is dying, and I'm not going to let you or anyone else take him away from me. So keep perfectly still - I'm feeling trigger-happy.' - Sarah * 'What would Sarah Jane do?' 'She'd do what she always does - improvise. Come on.' - Clyde and Rani * 'I was more frightened than I have ever been in my life. I nearly lost the most important thing in the universe - you.' - Sarah, to Luke * 'For once, I truly hoped we'd found a friend out there - someone Earth could trust. A way for all of us to move forward, humans and aliens together. I was wrong - this time. But it doesn't mean our next visitors will be the same. There are friends out there too, friends who really will want to help us. And as we all know, there's nothing more important than friendship. And then one day, with a little luck, and a lot of hard work, Earth could be a shining example to the entire universe.' - Sarah Jane Wardrobe Appreciation It's the return of the pink shirt for the beginning of the story: ![]() The next waistcoat has lots of buttons, and there's a cute little jacket... ![]() And finally, a shirt and jeans, glasses, and a cute ponytail!
