"Different energy patterns." "Can't make sense of it." "Not a species we've encountered before." "Let's hope they're friendly, then." "Owen, Ianto, take the other side of the building." "Check the upper floors." "Toshiko, with me." "Okay?" "Go." "I'm getting mirror readings on both floors." "One creature at either end of the building." "Toshiko, split up." "You know, these creatures are very quiet." "Maybe they're sleeping." "Or hatching." "Or maybe they aren't creatures at all." "Just explosive devices." "Snap." "(RINGING)" "Shit!"

"The Torchwood Institute was created to combat the threat posed by the Doctor and other phantasmagoria." "JACK:" "He's not a threat!" "The Doctor is the one who will save you from your phantasma-hoogits." "Just tell us his location." "I don't know!" "He left me behind." "I came here to find him." "He refuels from that rift you have." "Hoping if I stayed here long enough, we'd find each other." "Now..." "Can I go?" "No." "You can't keep me here." "We can." "Unless." "Yes." "Unless..."

"He was a threat to the Empire." "Like me?" "You're our ally now." "If you don't want it..." "Your next assignment." " (SCOFFS) No." "I'm through with you people."

"I just followed the plans." "Yeah, kinda." "But first, you had to grasp the concept of what a sonic modulator does." "Most people would struggle with that." "And another thing," "the plans don't work." "What?" "The technical plans you followed, they were wrong." "They had mistakes in them." "That's why the plans were shelved." "But you, Toshiko Sato, you automatically fixed things as you went along." "What I'm trying to say is, oh, baby you're good."

"Born August 19th, 1983." "Able student, but not exceptional." "One minor conviction for shoplifting in your teens."

"Look, you checked me out." "You knew what a Weevil was." "Thought I was going to have to come "deal with you"." "But instead, you can see I have the right qualifications for the job." "There is no job." "We're nothing to do with Torchwood London." "I severed all links." "Yet when it burnt, two members of your team scavenged the ruins." "I don't want the equipment getting into the wrong hands." "And you're the right hands, are you?" "Trial period." "Three months." "No." "Three weeks." "Three days." "Let me prove myself to you." "I'll work for nothing." "No." "I saw what they did at Canary Wharf." "What am I supposed to do with those memories?" "You are not my responsibility and we're not hiring." "Same time tomorrow, then."

"Look, any conversation between us, no matter what the subject, is over." "Finished." "Done." "Forever." "I'm getting back behind the wheel of that car, if you're still standing in the road, I'm gonna drive through you." "So you're not going to help me catch this pterodactyl, then?" "Okay, that is the only special equipment you've got?" "Yeah. 'Cause I keep dinosaur nuts in the back of the SUV." "Torchwood London would've..." "(PTERODACTYL SQUAWKING)" "Nope." "How did you find it?" "Rift Activity Locator." "Torchwood London." "See, quality kit." "Yeah, it's quite excitable." "Must be the aftershave." "Never wear any." "You smell like that naturally?" "5 1 st century pheromones." "People have no idea." "Ready for another go?" "I'm game if you are." "Three, two, one." "(PTERODACTYL SQUAWKING)" "Shh." "Shh." "Shh." "(JACK CH UCKLING)" "We're not going to harm you." "You can't stay here." "Come back with me." "I've got somewhere nice and big where you can fly around." "Okay, so you let the pterodactyl in but not me?" "I need a guard dog." "I could be that." "A receptionist?" "Building maintenance?" "Food and drink?" "Dry cleaning even?" "That coat of yours must take a battering." "Like a butler, I could be a butler." "We don't need a butler." "Excuse me." "Dried egg on your collar." "It was a busy week." "What exactly is your plan?" "I'm gonna be the decoy." "And it won't rip you to shreds?" "Dinosaurs?" "Had them for breakfast." "Had to." "Only source of food protein after the asteroid crashed." "Long story." "Here you go." "One injection to the central nervous cortex." "I'll keep it occupied." "Move." "No." "What?" "It knows me." "I'll be a better decoy." "Way too dangerous." "No, I've got a secret weapon."

"One, two, three." "Come on." "Oh, my God." "Come on." "Come on, come on." "(IANTO SCREAMING)" "You okay?" "My shoulder." "I think it's dislocated." "Can you take this?" "Yeah." "Take a deep breath." "Where are the others?" "We need your help to get Toshiko out." "Owen?" "No sign yet." "If anything happens, he can't repair himself." "Of course, he can't heal, can he?" "Okay, we'll help Rhys with Toshiko." "Let us know when you find Owen, and be careful." "Okay." "Okay?" "You all right?" "(CREAKING)" "Oh, go on." "Please, please, please, please." "No." "You don't even like her, ever since she didn't pay for her share of the Chinese in Leicester." "Yeah, but we want Julia to come and it'd look odd if we invite one without the other." "Oh, God, help me please." "Help me, God." "Three tables done." "N ine more to go." "You wanna back out?" "It's still not too late." "Listen, I'm marrying you even if it kills me, okay?" "H mm." "Good." "You want a cup of tea?" "Yeah, I'll make one." "Think I can manage." "Katie?" "Yeah?" "Erm..." "Water." "Yeah." "From the kettle." "(KATIE SIGHING)" "Milk." "Stop nagging me." "I don't want to have milk." "I've never liked milk." "I want to have..." "Tea." "I wanna have tea without... (SIGHING)" "Milk." "Tea without milk." "(BANGING)" "(KATIE CRYING)" "It's all right." "It's all right." "MAN :" "I got your invitation." "It's still going ahead?" "I promised her a summer wedding." "Before all this." "This changes nothing." "Owen, it will change everything." "You don't know for certain." "We've been through Kate's test results more times than any patient in my whole career." "You've looked through them yourself." "All the evidence suggests she has early onset Alzheimer's." "The youngest case in medical history." "Doesn't mean we're wrong." "OWEN :" "Please." "Run more tests." "Let's just try one more MRI scan." "An MRI isn't gonna make any difference." "You don't know that now." "You have said yourself that this is unlike any case that you've seen." "Maybe you've missed something." "Owen." "You don't understand, Jim, okay?" "One day she's fine, she has perfect memory, the old Katie, and the next, there's nothing." "She's blank." "Now I am losing her and I don't know what to do about that, okay?" "So please..." "What's the point of me doing this job if I can't help my own fiancée?" "I'll see what I can do." "Thank you, Jim." "It's like being lost in a place you know really well, you can't get your bearings." "Sometimes it comes back to you and sometimes..." "I'm sorry, Owen." "What've you got to be sorry for?" "I don't want to put you through this." "Last night, I dreamt that you left me." "Come on." "Nobody's leaving anyone." "(KATIE SNIFFLING)" "How is that possible?" "We don't know." "I've never seen anything like it." "It's not the brain deteriorating, it's a clear physical tumour." "That wasn't there last week?" "Not that we saw." "You were right to ask for another scan." "So, what do we do now?" "We have to view this as good news." "Katie, we need to take you into surgery soon as possible and remove the tumour." "You understand?" "Katie?" "I can't remember your name." "You sure she's up to this?" "We're going to do everything we can for her." "I'm sorry." "Who the hell are you?" "I tried to tell them you should prepare for the worst." "No, you can't go in there." "Oh, my God." "Katie." "What is it?" "I'm sorry, I tried to stop them." "She's dead." "That thing in her head is an alien life form." "It incubates in the brain, disrupting the shape and functions." "When it's attacked or threatened, it emits a toxic gas that's fatal to humans." "It clears pretty quickly." "She can't be dead." "She can't be dead." "I'm calling the police." "Tell them that Torchwood's already here and dealing with it." "That'll save them a call-out." "I need to take her brain back with me." "Don't touch her." "Don't touch her." "How are you feeling?" "Where is she?" "Where is who?" "Katie." "Katie Russell." "She's a junior doctor." "She works here and we're about to get married." "Let's get you back into bed." "Get off me!" "Where is she?" "(SHOUTING) Where is she?" "Where is she?" "He was wearing a military uniform." "He has an American accent." "I promise, we have checked all the security footage." "There was no such man." "Jim Garrett was poisoned by some alien toxin." "Jim Garrett was in a car accident." "The American said that he wanted her brain and there was..." "There was an alien creature or..." "This happened, okay?" "This is not some trauma or delayed grief or whatever you're scribbling down." "Katie's tumour was inoperable." "There was nothing anyone could have done." "This is just..." "This is wrong." "I'm giving you three months' prescribed rest." "Don't come into work." "Yeah." "This isn't right." "He was there." "It wasn't just me." "He was there, too." "That is not what happened." "That's not what happened." "You !" "You could have saved her!" "You could have saved her!" "You could have..." "You could have saved her." "I couldn't." "I really couldn't." "(OWEN CRYING)" "OWEN :" "You're not a figment of my imagination and I don't know what's happening any more." "Maybe this is what a mental breakdown feels like." "JACK:" "You're fine." "It's the rest of the world that's delusional." "Why her?" "There is no reason." "Your life doesn't end with her." "What are you going to do now?" "Go back to work?" "See echoes of her in every corridor?" "You need a purpose." "I'm building something." "I need a medic." "You want me?" "You made them take more scans, kept trying to track me down." "You don't give up easily." "I need someone like that to work with me in Cardiff." "To fight aliens?" "Exactly." "Look, I..." "I don't know what happened to Katie." "And I don't know who you really are." "But there is no such thing as aliens." "You think?" "I'm having a breakdown, a mental collapse." "Owen." "Why did you become a doctor?" "I thought if I could save one life, mine would be worthwhile." "But you save one, and there's another and another clawing at you, demanding to be saved." "And even if you do succeed, you can never save enough." "Maybe here you can." "Heavens." "H i." "Careful!" "If that falls..." "Okay, softly." "(BOTH SCREAM)" "Okay." "Just be very careful." "Okay, all right." "I'm gonna get you out." "This one." "Okay." "You have do it very, very gently." "Okay." "There's no way this is gonna drop on you." "Whoa !" "Quiet." "Okay." "Okay, silent." "I'm going to do this as quickly as possible." "Listen to me, I'm going to get you out of this." "Look at me." "Trust me." "Okay, Owen, hold my hand." "Slowly." "Hold my hands." "JACK:" "You okay?" "OWEN :" "Yeah." "You all right?" "Tosh, what happened?" "TOSHIKO:" "Broken arm." "Bruised ribs." "About an inch away from being crushed by a girder." "OWEN :" "We were lucky." "IANTO:" "We all were." "Jack, who's done this?" "I don't..." "RHYS:" "Where's the SUV?" "(BEEPING)" "Oh, no." "Jack, what does he want?" "Oh, déjà vu." "Or did I say that already?" "Hey, team!" "Of course, there might be a few less of you by now." "Don't know if you liked my little gift." "Of course, you can't die." "And with all that life, all that time, you can't spare any for me." "Oh!" "Say hi to the family." "No way." "It can't be." "Been a while since you've seen your brother, eh, Jack?" "Gray?" "Okay, here is what's going to happen." "Everything you love, everything you treasure, will die." "I'm going to tear your world apart," "Captain Jack Harkness." "Piece by piece." "Starting now." "Maybe now you'll want to spend some time with me." "This was a targeted attack." "He killed the four most senior officers." "If it gets out what happened here, there'll be a city-wide panic." "Let's go get ourselves a good view." "What have you done?" "We're going to put this city back together." "We're going to find Jack." "And we're going to punish John." "He's completely crippled us, Gwen." "You're no fun." "Owen, get out of there." "What have you done with my brother?" "This is going to get nasty." "What if this is how it all ends?"
