Quotes

Captain Jack Harkness : Doctor.
The Doctor : Captain.
Captain Jack Harkness : Good to see you.
The Doctor : And you. Same as ever. Although, have you had work done?
Captain Jack Harkness : You can talk!
The Doctor : [looks confused for a second] Oh yes, the face. Regeneration. How did you know this was me?
Captain Jack Harkness : The police box kinda gives it away.
-
The Doctor : [about Rose] Everything she did was so human. She brought you back to life, but she couldn't control it. She brought you back forever. That's something, I suppose. The final act of the Time War was life.
Captain Jack Harkness : [working a power system panel] Do you think she could change me back?
The Doctor : I took the power out of her. She's gone, Jack. She's not just living on a parallel world. She's trapped there. The walls have closed.
Captain Jack Harkness : I'm sorry.
The Doctor : Yeah.
Captain Jack Harkness : I went back to her estate in the Nineties, just once or twice, watched her growing up. Never said hello, time lines and all that.
The Doctor : Do you want to die?
Captain Jack Harkness : [pulling on a power system panel] This one's a little stuck.
The Doctor : Jack.
Captain Jack Harkness : I thought I did. I don't know, but this lot, you see them out here surviving and that's fantastic.
-
The Doctor : You might be out there somewhere.
Captain Jack Harkness : I can go meet myself.
The Doctor : Well, the only man you're ever going to be happy with.
Captain Jack Harkness : This new regeneration, it's kinda cheeky.
-
Martha Jones : Doctor, it's the Professor. He's got this watch, this fob watch that's the same as yours. Same writing, same everything.
The Doctor : [looking terrified] Don't be ridiculous.
Martha Jones : I asked him, he said he's had it his whole life.
Captain Jack Harkness : So, he's got the same watch.
Martha Jones : But it's not a watch, it's a thing, a chameleon thing.
The Doctor : No, no, no, it's this thing, this device, it re-writes biology. Changes a Time Lord into a human.
[Jack looks up]
Martha Jones : And it's the same watch!
The Doctor : [desperately] It can't be.
Captain Jack Harkness : That means he could be a Time Lord. You may not be the last one.
-
The Doctor : When did you realise?
Captain Jack Harkness : Earth, 1892. Got in a fight on Ellis Island. Man shot me through the heart, then I woke up. Thought it was kinda strange. But then it never stopped. Fell off a cliff, trampled by horses, world war one, world war two, poison, starvation, a stray javelin...
The Doctor : [painful] Ooh!
Captain Jack Harkness : In the end, I got the message. I'm the man who can never die. And all that time you knew.
The Doctor : That's why I left you behind. It's not easy, even just... just looking at you, Jack, 'cause you're wrong.
Captain Jack Harkness : Thanks.
-
Captain Jack Harkness : Captain Jack Harkness.
The Doctor : Stop it!
Captain Jack Harkness : Can't I say hello to anyone?
Chantho : Chan-I do not protest-tho.
Captain Jack Harkness : [winks] Maybe later, blue.
-
The Doctor : I can't help it. I'm a Time Lord. It's instinct; it's in my guts. You're a fixed point in time and space; you're a fact. That's never meant to happen. Even the TARDIS reacted against you, tried to shake you off. Flew all the way to the end of the universe just to get rid of you.
Captain Jack Harkness : So what you're saying is... you're prejudiced?
The Doctor : I never thought of it like that.
Captain Jack Harkness : Shame on you.
-
Captain Jack Harkness : So there I was, stranded in the year two-hundred-one-hundred, ankle deep in Dalek dust, he goes off without me. But I had this. I used to be a Time Agent, it's called a Vortex Manipulator. He's not the only one who can time travel...
The Doctor : Excuse me, that's not time travel. It's like, I've got a sports car, you've got a Space Hopper.
Martha Jones : Oh, boys and their toys.
Captain Jack Harkness : All right, so I bounced.

[Jack prepares to enter a deadly radiation filled room]
The Doctor : Whoa, what are you taking your clothes off for?
Captain Jack Harkness : I'm goin' in!
The Doctor : By the looks of it, I'd say the Stet radiation doesn't affect clothes, only flesh.
Captain Jack Harkness : Well, I'll look good though.
-
Captain Jack Harkness : Captain Jack Harkness. And who are you?
Martha Jones : [smiles] Martha Jones.
Captain Jack Harkness : [half smile, half laugh] Nice to meet you, Martha Jones.
The Doctor : Oh, don't start!
Captain Jack Harkness : [defensively] I was only saying hello.
Martha Jones : I don't mind.
-
The Doctor : It strikes me, Professor, that you've got a room that no one can enter without dying. Is that correct?
Prof. Yana : Yes.
The Doctor : Well...
[Jack comes back to life]
The Doctor : ...I think I've got just the man.
Captain Jack Harkness : Was someone kissing me?
-
Martha : [lifting a Tank of water containing a hand out of Jack's bag and placing it on the tabetop] Oh, my, God! You've got a hand? A hand in a jar? A hand, in a jar, in your bag!
Doctor : Bu-tha-tha-that's *my* hand!
Jack : I said I had a Doctor Detector.
Chantho : Chan, is this a tradition amongst your people, tho?
Martha : Not on my street! What do you mean that's your hand? You've got both your hands! I can see them!
Doctor : Long story. I lost my hand, Christmas Day, in a sword fight.
[Flashback: The Sycorax Leader chops the Doctor's hand off]
Martha : What? And you... grew another hand?
Doctor : Um, yeah. I did, yeah.
[holds it up and waves it]
Doctor : Hello.
Professor Yana : [to the Doctor] Might I ask, what species are you?
Doctor : Time Lord. Last of. Heard of them? Legend or anything? Not even a myth? Blimey, the end of the Universe is a bit humbling.
Chantho : Chan, it is said that I am the last of my species too, tho.
Doctor : Sorry, what was your name?
Professor Yana : My assistant, and good friend Chantho. A survivor of the Malmooth, this was their planet Malcassairo, before we took refuge.
Doctor : The city outside, that was yours?
Chantho : Chan, the conglomeration died, tho.
Doctor : Conglomeration! That's what I said!
Jack : You're supposed to say, "sorry".
Doctor : Oh, yes.
[to Chantho]
Doctor : Sorry.
Chantho : Chan, most grateful, tho.
-
Captain Jack Harkness : [to a refugee] Captain Jack Harkness. And who are you?
The Doctor : Stop it!
-
Martha Jones : What killed it?
The Doctor : Time. Just time. Everything's dying now. All the great civilisations have gone. This isn't just night, all the stars have burnt out and faded away, to nothing.
Captain Jack Harkness : They must have an atmospheric shell. We should be frozen to death.
The Doctor : Well, Martha and I maybe. Not so sure about you, Jack.
Martha Jones : But what about the people? Does no one survive?
The Doctor : I suppose... we have to hope. Life will find a way.
-
Martha Jones : But isn't that brilliant?
The Doctor : It is, of course it is, but depends which one. Brilliant, fantastic, yeah. But they died, the Time Lords, all of them, they died!
Captain Jack Harkness : Not if he was human.
The Doctor : What did he say, Martha? WHAT DID HE SAY?
Martha Jones : [taken aback] He looked at the watch like he could hardly see it, like that perception filter thing...
The Doctor : And what about now? Can he see it now?
-
The Doctor : We're accelerating into the future. The year one billion, five billion, five trillion, fifty trillion... What? The year one hundred trillion? That's impossible!
Martha Jones : Why? What happens then?
The Doctor : We're going to the end of the universe.
[Captain Jack Harkness is seen in the time vortex hanging onto the TARDIS]
Captain Jack Harkness : [shouts] Doctor!
-
Captain Jack Harkness : So what are those things outside? The Beastie boys, what are they?
Professor Yana : We call them the Futurekind. Which is a myth in itself. But it's feared they are what we will become unless we reach Utopia.
