"There's an energy spike coming from it." "I've never seen anything like it before." "OK So, the big question is, what's our Mr Parker gone and found this time?" "Why?" "Do you think he's a threat?" "Well, he hasn't been up until now." "He's a bit Howard Hughes." "We know he's there, we know he's not a threat." "But as the story goes, he hasn't left the house since his wife died." "Nobody's seen him since 1986." "We've been monitoring Parker for ages." "There's nothing to be scared of is there?" "Unlike, say, Tintin?" "OK!" "I never liked Tintin." "What, he's weird." "Funny face and his hair isjust,is horrible." "I always loved Tintin." "Yeah, well you would." "And he never had a girlfriend did he, just the dog, so I reckon he was actually shagging the dog."

"I'm a bloody brilliant doctor." "I know you are.'" "So why are you doing my job?" "Because Gwen asked me to." "That's not what I mean." "Because you died, and because you need help." "That's not a bad thing." "It is a bad thing that you died obviously, but it's not bad that you need help, if you know what I mean?" "You're kinda cute when you babble." "And you're kinda cute when you're not chucking a scalpel about." "But I'm making the sodding coffee!" "I mean, come on, won't your bloke be missing you?" "Has he seen jack?" "They always get jealous when they meet jack." "Owen, I don't want yourjob." "Ijust want to do mine." "OK, I'm dead, but I am 100% human." "I'm fine." "You've sliced your hand open." "The wound's not going to heal, so, you're going to have to re-stitch it every week or so." "At least you don't need anaesthetic." "Yeah, can't feel anything." "I can't feel the needle or thread." "I can't feel your hands on mine." "Yet, I can touch things, I can hold 'em," "I know they're there." "But I just can't feel anything." "I'm numb." "Do you see why jack's worried?" "Bruises won't heal." "Bones won't mend." "You're. ..fragile." "Yeah, well, I'd better get used to doing things myself." "'So she offers to help you and you push her away?" "Charming.'" "Yeah, hole in the chest." "Sorry if I don't follow social niceties any more." "You mean you did before?" "God, you're a pain in the arse,aren't you?" "Is that why your man dumped you?" "Ooh, I hit a nerve?" "What, did you get your heart broken?" "No, actually." "He died." "I'm sorry." "No you're not." "You couldn't care less about me and" "I don't care about you." "just because we're both planning on jumping, it doesn't mean we have some sort of special connection." "You don't know the half of it." "Give me something to do." "You knowl can't." "Rules and regulations." "Fine." "I might as well go home then." "OK." "What exactly do I do when I get there?" "Watch TV.....chill." "jack, I'm dead." "I'm permanently chilled." "You know, you get to live forever." "I get to die forever." "It's funny that." "Do you mind ifl eat, I'm starving?" "No, help yourself." "So, jack asked you to come round did he?" "'Talk to Owen." "'Get him to open up, godammit!" "'" "You haven't changed." "It's all about Owen." "I've had a hell of a morning, you know." "Do you have a...?" "Top drawer." "So, jack calls me in at 5.00 this morning." "He could have waited until I got in, but no, strange energy spike and it's 'Let's get Tosh in.'" "0h, and when Gwen got in, first thing she did?" "Say sorry for not asking me to be bridesmaid." "I mean, me, a bridesmaid?" "You sound like an old married couple.'" "Brian used to say I talked too much." "Tell me about him." "Today's my wedding anniversary." "My perfect day..." "It was an accident." "We'd been married less than an hour." "I was picking confetti out of my hair when it happens." "Shit." "I'm..." "Sorry, yeah." "I know." "You waited until your wedding anniversary to kill yourself?" "Why?" "Does it matter?" "Why have you waited?" "Because I believe people." "I believe them when they said it would get better." "So, what do you think, Doctor?" "Do you really think it's going to get any better?" "I ran it through the language translator and it's flipping Croatian." "Why are you here, Tosh?" "I want to help you." "And how are you going to do that?" "How are you going to help me?" "I mean, am I going to be a new 'special project'?" "Come on, Owen, Ijust..." "That's not why you're here is it?" "For some reason you want me, you know I don't know why, but you always have, you're always looking at me, watching me screw other women, your heart breaking and now it's different, because I'm safe now, aren't I?" "And it's all cosy and it's romantic and isn't it beautiful?" "You can say what you like." "I'm not leaving you." "0f course, not." "This is it, isn't it?" "This is the date that we were talking about." "You've got your beer, you've got pizza, you and me, it'sjust how you wanted it." "All we need now is a sodding pool table." "Stop it!" "What's wrong with you?" "I'm broken, Tosh!" "I don't work, I've got no heartbeat, no feelings, no tears, I have got nothing to give you!" "I. .." "Do you understand that?" "Maybe that's what you want, maybe you want somebody who's as screwed up as you!" "Who's twisted and screwed up like you are." "You want to see broken, do you want to see broken, Tosh?" "Owen!" "Stop it!" "What are you doing?" "!" "36 minutes." "Not bad." "You were watching?" "Skinny guy in tight jeans runs into water?" "I was taking pictures!" "How long's this going to go on for, Owen?" "Ianto, what have you found out about Parker?" "I've identified some ofthe things he's purchased over the past year." "We've got a Dogon eye." "A pair of Myakian wings, meteorites." "An Arcateenian translation of james Herbert's 'The Fog'." "But there are a few things we've never seen before." "So one of these is causing the energy spikes?" "And they're getting dangerously bigger." "Right, OK we need to get in there." "Parker employs a Mr Philip Farrington to run security." "There's at least six guards, CCI'€'V everywhere, all of which we can bring down by taking out the generator, but then there's these..." "Heat sensors." "As in body heat?" "Yep." "Solar-powered." "There's one on every doorway, every window." "So, how do we get past them?" "Sounds like you need a dead man." "Someone with no body heat." "What have you got to lose?" "Tosh?" "I turned your telly off." "You screamed at her, you said all those things, and that's it?" "That's Tosh." "Always the professional." "I don't care." "I'm not interested in you, in old men or alien meteors." "?" "I came here because my husband died." "I just want to jump." "go?" " Let's get on with it." " Get off me!" "You, you're too scared." "Aren't you?" "How did you get from that to here?" "What happened?" "If you hurt yourself, you will not recover." "Like I said, any bruises you get, they're not gonna heal." "Do not engage in physical combat." "One punch you're gone." "Be careful." "I understand, I'm made of glass." "Owen?" "just take care." "0h, and you'll need this." "'0wen?" "'" "Yeah..." "Hi, Tosh." "'OK, the power in the house is supplied from one private electrical generator." "'There's a backup unit but take the main one down and you've got one minute, twenty of blackout time." "You can only get rid of one of the blokes?" "Look suspicious with two phone calls." "Try and make it the big one, OK?" "Arse." " Hello?" " Mr Taylor?" "Yeah, that's right, who's this?" "I'm calling from St Helen's Hospital." "'Mrs Christine Taylor was brought in an hour ago.'" "'She's been in a car accident.'" "Is she hurt?" "'She's going to be fine but she's asking to see you.' of course, I'm on my way." "You all right?" "It's Chrissie, she's been in an accident." "Look, I've got to go." "Yeah, of course." "Mr Farringdon?" "Ben's had to go." "His wife's been in an accident." "OK, guys, I'm here." "Move away from there." "I said!" "Yeah, OK, guys." "Very funny" " Argh!" " No, no, no." "Do you want to see what I can do?" "What?" "Woo!" "I'm dead already, mate." "'Webb?" "Dave, are you there?" "'" "One minute, twenty until the backup generator comes online." "'This is Farrington to all units." "'The backup generator will be running in 45 seconds." "Stay at your posts, please." "'Mr Parker's personal generator is unaffected.'"

"'A room at the back of the house.'" "Can you give me anything else?" "'No, the energy source is playing havoc with the system, sorry.'" "No worries." "I'm getting used to being in the dark." "Hold it there." "Evenin'." "Nice place you've got here." "Love what you've done with the pictures." "Who are you?" "Why aren't the sensors picking you up?" "OK, stop!" "Stop or I'll shoot." "No, you won't." "You're a security guard." "That guns just for show, innit?" "Do you know what a bullet does to a living person?" "It's not like a knife through butter, no, no, no, no." "It rotates, tears into the flesh and the gooey stuff behind." "Rips into the organs, and, ooh, it's not nice." "But anyway, I haven't got any body heat, you must know what that means?" "You can't kill a dead man." "What are you?" " I'm wrong." " What are you?" "!" "I'm broken." "I'm Dr Owen Harper." "And I'm having one hell of a day." "Yes?" "It's OK, mate." "I'm not going to hurt you." "I'm a doctor." "You're a very violent doctor." "I've been watching you." "Henry Parker, yeah?" "You're Torchwood, yes?" "Did the Americans send you?" "Yeah, they sent me." "How do you know so much about us?" "They could've sent that japanese girl, I liked her." "Yeah, well, I'm sorry you got me." "Is she on your phone thing?" "The earpiece?" "Yeah." "Hello!" "just to say you've got very lovely legs." "You should show them off more." "What's wrong with you?" "Three heart attacks and a failed bypass." "But I'm fine, because I have this." "It's called the Pulse." "You know what it is?" "I named it." "It's keeping me alive." "No!" "You're not taking it." "It could be dangerous, we've been detecting massive energy readings." "I don't care." "All I know is, it works." "Well, I'm sorry, it doesn't." "What?" "The energy isn't going into you." "The power'sjust building up inside that thing, that's what we've been detecting but it isn't actually doing anything for you." "You're wrong." "I can feel it." "No, no." "I'm not going to die." "Listen to me." "There are loads of peoples' lives at risk." "If that explodes we can't predict the fall-out." "You're young, you don't understand what dying feels like." "Believe me, I do." "I really do." " There's nothing there!" " Where?" "0n the other side, nothing, I'm dying." "Take away my Pulse and I'm gone." "My body decomposing." "You can't stop it, Mr Parker." "I'm sorry but it's going to happen one day." "It'll be dark and I'll be alone." "Where are you now?" "It's dark and you're all alone, so what's the difference?" "I don't understand what's keeping me here." "It's hope." "That thing, it's just hope." "Do you really think all this is better than death?" "It's got to be." "It is better!"
