Gwen: I know exactly what you’re thinking, Jack Harkness. I know it. She won’t do this. Not really. Not my Gwen. No. Gwen, she can’t hurt me. Gwen loves me. She’d never hand me in. Well, this is about my daughter. And I swear, for her sake, I will see you killed like a dog right in front of me if it means her back in my arms. Understood?
Jack: Understood. And let me tell you, now that I’m mortal, I’m gonna hang on to this with everything I’ve got. I love you, Gwen Cooper, but I will rip your skin from your skull before I let you take this away from me. Understood?
Gwen: Understood. (pause) I feel like I know you now better than I’ve ever done before.
Jack: Yeah. Right at the end.
Gwen: Mmm. Right at the end.

Jack: This is it. It’s been a long time coming. All those years.
Gwen: What’s the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen? Not just on Earth.
Jack: I’m not doing this. I’m not giving final speeches.
Gwen: Just tell me, anywhere in the universe.

Gwen: Tell me another.
Jack: I’ve said enough.
Gwen: No, go on, tell me. Just tell me all about your life, all the things that you’ve never said. How many children did you have, Jack?
Jack: I’ve lived a lot of lifetimes, Gwen. I can’t tell you everything.
Gwen: A lot of lifetimes. That’s a consolation, isn’t it? Is it? I mean, you’ve had more lives that anyone.
Jack: It’s not enough. I don’t want to die.
Gwen: I know.

Gwen: And you, you’re gonna live!
Jack: It’s a talent of mine.
Gwen: I meant every word I said.
Jack: So did I.
Gwen: Good!
(they hug)
Gwen: And as for you, you’d better pray that death comes back to this planet by the time I’m finished with you.
Jack: So tell us who you are…before I set her loose.
