Whoa! [pushes a filling cabinet off of him] What happened? Was it the Rift? [runs out of his office] Gwen? Ianto? You okay?

No broken bones. Slight loss of dignity. No change there, then.

Gwen

The whole city must have felt that! All of South Wales!

I'm gonna take a look outside! [leaves]

[looks at a computer screen, stunned] Little bit bigger than South Wales.

POPaul O'Grady

[on TV screen] D'you know what? I look up, and there's all these moons and things- Have you seen them? Did you see them? [sounds of an audience agreeing] I thought, what was I drinking last night? Furnisher polish? [Ianto laughs]

[disaprovingly] Ianto! Time and a place!

Eh...It is funny, though.

Gwen, come and see!

Gwen

[on her phone] Rhys, I have no idea. Just...stay indoors. And I need you to phone my mother. Tell her, oh I dunno, tell her to take her pills and go to sleep. I'm gonna come home as soon as I can. I promise. I love you, you big idiot. [hangs up, then joins Jack and Ianto]

Someone's established an artificial atmospheric shell. Keeping the air and holding in the heat.

Whoever's done this wants the human race alive- that's a plus. Twenty-seven planets, including the Earth.

Gwen

No, but what's that? [indicates a red dot on the screen] That's not a planet!

Gwen

Three thousand miles, and closing...but who are they?! [Jack's phone rings. He answers]

Martha Jones, voice of a nightingale...Tell me you put something in my drink.

No such luck. Have you heard from the Doctor?

Not a word. Where are you?

New York.

Huh. Nice for some...

I've been promoted; Medical Director on Project Indigo.

Did you get that thing working?

[surprised] Indigo's top secret, no one's supposed to know about that.

I... met a soldier in a bar. [Ianto looks at him] Long story.

[sharply] When was that?

[to Ianto, firmly] Strictly professional.

Gwen

Fifteen hundred miles, boys, and accelerating. They're almost here.

[Gwen comes out with a pair of machine guns]

Uh, they don't work against Daleks.

Gwen

Yeah? [tosses him a gun] Well, I'm going out fighting. Like Owen, like Tosh. [loads her gun, then hands Ianto a magazine clip] How 'bout you?

[Ianto contemplates, then loads the gun]

Yes ma'am!

[upon discovering the Dalek has frozen]

It's a Time Lock. The ultimate defence program. Tosh was working on it; Never thought she'd finish it, but she did. The Hub's sealed in a time bubble. Nothing can get in.

Gwen

But that means we can't get out.

Nope. Not without unlocking that Dalek. We're trapped inside. It's all up to Jack, now.

DThe Doctor

Torchwood Hub, this is the Doctor! Are you receiving me?

Gwen

Loud and clear. Is Jack there?

DThe Doctor

Can't get rid of him! [frowns] Jack, what's her name?

Gwen Cooper.

DThe Doctor

Tell me, Gwen Cooper, are you from an old Cardiff family?

[Gwen and Ianto exchange confused glances]

Gwen

Yes. All the way to the 1800s.

DThe Doctor

Ah, thought so! [to Rose] Spatial genetic multiplicity.

RRose

[delighted] Oh yeah!

DThe Doctor

Yeah. Yeah, funny old world. Now Torchwood, I want you open up that Rift Manipulator, and send all the power to me.

Doing it now, sir.

Gwen

What's that for?

DThe Doctor

It's a tow rope!
