Summer
Summer has them avoiding the wrath of Sir Isaac Newton. The Doctor and Nyssa are arrested for possessing counterfeit coins; they are, in fact, genuine coins from Earth's future. One of them, an American Eisenhower silver dollar, depicts an eagle soaring over the lunar surface. Other coins hint at a future united Europe.

Famous quotes containing the word summer:
“Back now to autumn, leaving the ended husk
Of summer that brought them here for Show Saturday
The men with hunters, dog-breeding wool-defined women,
Children all saddle-swank, mugfaced middleaged wives
Glaring at jellies, husbands on leave from the garden
Watchful as weasels, car-tuning curt-haired sons
Back now, all of them, to their local lives....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“We say ourselves fortunate to be driving by today.
That we may look at them, in their gardens where
The summer ripeness rots. But not raggedly.
Even the leaves fall down in lovelier patterns here.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“Wind, the season-climate mixer,
In my Witches’ Weather Primer
Says, to make this Fall Elixir
First you let the summer simmer....”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
