Episode Quotes
Host: We move now from ships like the Titanic and the Andrea Dorea to a small fragment of history. This little collector's item here dates back a few hundred years to the British Indian colonial period. Proving only that sometimes the least likely objects can be filled with the most likely horror. Our painting is called The Doll and this one you'd best not play with.
Colonel Masters: My trade is soldiering. And it's a proper pity that this respected profession isn't a shade less honorable and a share more remunerative.
Pandit Chola: Best remain awake, Colonel. The doll has teeth... and the teeth have poison. And there is no medicine on earth to save you.
