"You're just saying things." "How did you get in here ?" "Well, obviously, when you kidnapped me." "Who was it ?" "Who's paying you ?" "Was it Nerys ?" "Oh, my God, she's finally got me back." "This has got Nerys written all over it." "Who the hell is Nerys ?" "Your best friend !" "Wait a minute." "What are you dressed like that for ?" "I'm going ten-pin bowling..."

"It's just a holiday, now." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Sorry." "It's not your fault." "Oh." "That's a change." "Wish you had a time machine." "Then we could go back and get it right." "Um, yeah, yeah."

"I mean, it was all a bit posh, really." "I'd spent the last two years at a double glazing firm." "Well, I thought, I'm never going to fit in here." "And then he made me a cup of coffee." "I mean, that just doesn't happen." "Nobody gets the secretaries a coffee." "And Lance, he's the Head of HR, he didn't need to bother with me." "But he was nice, he was funny." "And it turns out he thought everyone else was really snotty too." "So, that's how it started, me and him." "One cup of coffee and that was it." "When was this ?" "Six months ago." "Bit quick, to get married." "Well... heinsisted." "Will you marry me ?" "And he nagged and he nagged me." "Oh, just think about it." "We'd make a great couple, and I'd get rid of the dog, and we could do out that back bedroom." "And he just wore me down." "And then finally I just gave in." "Please." "Oh, please." "Please, please, please, please, please, please." "What does HC Clements do ?" "Oh, security systems." "Y'know, entry codes, ID cards, that sort of thing." "Ask me, it's a posh name for a locksmith's." "Keys..." "Anyway, enough of my CV." "Come on, it's time to face the consequences." "Oh, this is gonna be so shaming."

"Torchwood was destroyed, but HC Clements stayed in business." "I think someone else came in and took over the operation." "But what do they want with me ?" "Somehow, you've been dosed with Huon energy." "And that's a problem, because Huon energy hasn't existed since the dark times." "The only place you'd find a Huon particle now is a remnant in the heart of the TARDIS." "Y'see, that's what happened." "Say that's the TARDIS, and that's you."

"Right on top of us." "Torchwood snuck in and built this place underneath." "What, there's, like, a secret base hidden underneath a major London landmark ?" "I know." "Unheard of." "Oooh, look at this." "Stunning !" "What does it do ?" "Particle extrusion." "Hold on..." "Brilliant !" "They've been manufacturing Huon particles." "My people got rid of Huons, they unravelled the atomic structure." "Your people ?" "Who are they ?" "What company d'you represent ?" "Oh, I'm a freelancer." "But this lot are rebuilding them." "They've been using the river, so they've got the end result..." "Huon particles in liquid form." "And that's what's inside me ?" "Oh, my God." "Genius !" "Cos the particles are inert." "They need something living to catalyse inside, and that's you !" "Saturate the body, then..." "Oh !" "The wedding !" "Yes !" "You were getting married !" "Best day of your life..." "Oh, your body's a battleground." "It's a chemical war inside - adrenalin, acetylcholine, wham go the endorphins." "Oh, you're cooking !" "You're like a pressure cooker, a microwave, all churning away." "The particles reach boiling point, shazam !" "What did I do this time ?" "!" "Are you enjoying this ?" "Right, just tell me, these particles, are they dangerous ?" "Am I safe ?" "Yes !" "Doctor." "If your lot got rid of Huon particles, why did they do that ?" "Because they were deadly." "Oh, my God." "Whatever's been done to you, I'll reverse it." "I am not about to lose someone else." "Oh, she is long since lost." "I have waited so long, hibernating at the edge of the universe until the secret heart was uncovered and called out to waken..." "Someone's been digging." "Oh, very Torchwood." "Drilled by laser."

"If you're the Empress, where's the rest of the Racnoss ?" "Or are you the only one ?" "Such a sharp mind." "That's it - the last of your kind." "The Racnoss come from the dark times, billions of years ago." "They were carnivores, omnivores, they devoured whole planets." "Racnoss are born starving - is that our fault ?" "They eat people ?" "HC Clements, did he wear those black and white shoes ?" "He did." "We used to laugh, we used to call him the Fat Cat in Spats." "Oh, my God !" "My Christmas dinner." "You shouldn't even exist." "Way back in history, the fledgling empires went to war against the Racnoss." "They were wiped out." "Except for me." "That's what I've got inside me, that Huon energy thing." "Oi !" "Look at me, lady, I'm talking !" "Where do I fit in ?" "How come I get all stacked up with these Huon particles ?" "Look at me, you !" "Look me in the eye and tell me !" "The bride is so feisty !"

"A woman who can't even point to Germany on a map !" "I don't understand." "How did you meet him ?" "In the office." "He made you coffee." "What ?" "Every day, I made you coffee." "You had to be dosed with liquid particles over six months." "He was poisoning me ?" "It was all there in the job title." "The head of human resources." "This time, it's personnel." "But... weweregettingmarried." "Well, I couldn't risk you running off !" "Then I was stuck with a woman who thinks the height of excitement is a new flavour Pringle !"

"It's better than a night with her." "But I love you." "That's what made it easy." "It's like you said, Doctor." "The big picture." "What's the point of it all if the human race is nothing ?" "That's what the Empress can give me - the chance to go out there, to see it, the size of it all." "And I think you understand that, don't you, Doctor ?" "Who is this little physician ?" "She said, Martian." "Oh, I'm sort of homeless." "But the point is, what's down here ?" "The Racnoss are extinct." "What's gonna help you, 4, 000 miles down ?" "That's just the molten core of the earth." "I think he wants us to talk." "I think so too." "Well, tough." "All we need is Donna." "Kill this chattering little Doctor-man." "Don't you hurt him !" "No, it's all right." "No, I won't let them." "At arms !" "Ah, now... except...Takeaim!" "I just want to point out the obvious." "They won't hit the bride, they're such very good shots."

"I've always wanted to see this." "Donna, we're going further back than I've ever been before !" "If a key is lost, then another must be cut." "At a-a-a-a-arms !" "We've arrived." "D'you want to see ?" "Suppose." "Hold on, scanner's a bit small." "Maybe your way's best." "Come on." "No human's ever seen this." "You'll be the first." "All I want to see is my bed." "Donna Noble." "Welcome..." "to the creation of the Earth." "We've gone back 4.6 billion years." "There's no solar system, not yet." "Only dust and rocks and gas." "That's the sun, over there."

"No, but that's what you do, the human race, make sense out of chaos." "Marking it out with weddings and Christmas and calendars." "This whole process is beautiful, but only if it's being observed." "So I came out of all this ?" "Isn't that brilliant ?" "I think that's the Isle of Wight." "Eventually, gravity takes hold." "One big rock, heavier than others, starts to pull other rocks towards it." "All the dust and gas and elements get pulled in, everything piling in, until you get..." "TheEarth." "But the question is, what was that first rock ?" "Look..." "The Racnoss." "Now I have measured the bride's catalysis," "I can force-feed it." "Drink the particles, become the key !" "Hold on, the Racnoss are hiding from the war." "What's it doing ?" "Exactly what you said !" "Oh !" "They didn't just bury something at the centre of the Earth !"

"That little trick of mine, particles pulling particles - it works in reverse." "They're pulling us back !" "Well, can't you stop it ?" "Hasn't it got a handbrake ?"
