Who are you?
Nobody. I don't exist... and for a man of my charisma, that's quite an achievement.

Who are you?
Nobody. I don't exist... and for a man of my charisma, that's quite an achievement.
He's coming, the one you're looking for. The century will turn twice before you find each other again.
Ooh. Are you for real? You mean I have to wait a hundred years to find him? What'll I do in the meantime?
Silent types? That's okay. I used to date a guy with no mouth. Surprisingly creative.
The Torchwood Institute was created to combat the threat posed by the Doctor and other phantasmagoria.
(laughs) He's not a threat. The Doctor's the one who will save you from your phantasma-hoogits.
Hey, when you joked about the Millennium Bug, I didn't realise it was gonna have 18 legs stacked with poison. Anyone home? Hey! You know you're supposed to party like it's... (stops and sees his dead crew, then a man) Alex?
Jack! Just in time.
Alex? What happened? Who did this?
Me.
What? Why?
We got it wrong, Jack. We thought we could control the stuff we found. And what's it brought us? So much death.
What happened to them?
It's good you're here. Always did have great timing. This place, it's yours. Torchwood Three. My gift to you, Jack, for a century of service as field operative. Fill this place with purpose. Before it's too late. Please.
Alex, listen. It's going to be okay.
No. It's not. It's really not. I looked inside. It showed me what's coming. They were mercy killings. It's the kindest thing I could do. So none of us see the storm. I'm sorry I can't do the same for you. 21st century, Jack. Everything's gonna change. And we're not ready. (gun to forehead)
Alex!

Nice to meet you Jones Ianto Jones.
Thanks for the assistance.
Any time. By the way, love the coat!
[Talking about the pterodactyl]
Quite excitable!
Must be your aftershave.
I never wear any.
You smell like that naturally?
Fifty first century pheromones, you people have no idea!
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!
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.
I've got a secret weapon. Chocolate. Preferably dark.
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.
Come back with me. I've got somewhere nice and big where you can fly around.
So you'll let the pterodactyl in and not me?!
I need a guard dog.
I could be that!
If you're not a figment of my imagination, then I don't know what's happening anymore. Maybe this is what a mental breakdown feels like.
You're fine. It's the rest of the world that's delusional.
