- Yvonne Hartman: According to the records, you're not one for traveling alone. The Doctor and his companion - that's a pattern, isn't that right? There's no point in hiding anything, not from us. So where is she?
- The Doctor: Yes, sorry, good point. She's a bit shy that's all.
- [the Doctor opens the door to the TARDIS, where Rose and Jackie are hiding and grabs Jackie, pulling her out]
- The Doctor: But here she is, Rose Tyler. She's not the best I've ever had. Bit too blonde. Not too steady on her pins. A lot of that
- [the Doctor makes a movement with his hand to indicate she talks too much]
- The Doctor: . And just last week she stared into the heart of the time vortex and aged 57 years. But she'll do.
- Jackie Tyler: I'm 40!
- The Doctor: Deluded. Bless. I'll have to trade her in. Do you need anyone? She's very good at tea. Well, when I say "very good" I mean not bad. Well, I say "not bad" - anyway, lead on. Allons-y - but not too fast. Her ankle's going.
- Jackie Tyler: I'll show you were my ankle's going!
- The Doctor: Oh, well there goes the advantage of surprise. Still! Cuts to the chase. Stay in here, look after Jackie.
- Rose Tyler: I'm not looking after my mum!
- The Doctor: Well you brought her!
- Jackie Tyler: I was kidnapped!
- Rose Tyler: Doctor, they've got guns.
- The Doctor: And I haven't. Which makes me the better person, don't you think? They can shoot me dead, but the moral high-ground is mine.
- The Doctor: So, you find a breach, probe it, the sphere comes through, 600 feet above London, BAM! It leaves a hole in the fabric of reality. And that hole, you think: "Should we leave it alone, should we back off, should we play it safe?" NAH, you think: "Let's make it BIGGER!"
- Rose Tyler: [entering the TARDIS] According to the paper they've elected a ghost as MP for Leeds. Now don't tell me you're going to sit back and do nothing.
- [the Doctor suddenly appears from just below the console. He's wearing an odd looking backpack]
- The Doctor: [in a funny voice] Who ya gonna call!
- Rose Tyler: Ghostbusters!
- The Doctor: I ain't afraid of no ghost!
- Yvonne Hartman: They're invading the planet.
- The Doctor: It's not an invasion. It's too late for that. It's a victory.
- Jackie Tyler: But these Cybermen, what do they have to do with the ghosts?
- The Doctor: Don't you ever listen? A footprint doesn't look like a boot.
- [the ghosts begin to turn into Cybermen]
- The Doctor: It's the Cybermen. All the ghosts are Cybermen. Millions of them. All over the earth.
- Peggy Mitchell: [on TV] Listen to me, Den Watts - I don't care if you HAVE come back from the dead, get out of my pub! The only spirits in here are gin, whisky and vodka, so go on - GET OUT!
- [the Doctor switches the TV off and turns to Jackie]
- The Doctor: When did this start?
- Jackie Tyler: Well, first of all, Peggy heard this noise in the cellar, so she goes downstairs...
- The Doctor: No, I mean worldwide.
- Rose Tyler: The first nineteen years of my life, nothing happened. Nothing at all, not ever. And then I met a man called the Doctor. A man who could change his face. He took me away from home in his magical machine. He showed me the whole of time and space. I thought it would never end.
- Yvonne Hartman: [pointing to Rose's image on the laptop] So this is?
- The Doctor: That's Rose Tyler.
- Yvonne Hartman: [looking confusedly at Jackie] Then she is?
- Jackie Tyler: I'm her mother.
- Yvonne Hartman: [laughing] You travel with her mother?
- Jackie Tyler: I was kidnapped!
- The Doctor: Please, when you come to write my official biography, please don't say I travelled with her mother.
- [Jackie looks at him accusingly]
- The Doctor: Well I have a reputation to uphold.
- Rose Tyler: Planet Earth. This is where I was born. And this is where I died. For the first nineteen years of my life nothing happened. Nothing at all. Not ever. And then I met a man called The Doctor. A man who could change his face. And he took me away from home in his magical machine. He showed me the whole of time and space. I thought it would never end. That's what I thought. But then came the Army of Ghosts, then came Torchwood and the war. And that's when it all ended. This is the story of how I died.
- Jackie Tyler: Just think of it though: our families coming back home, all the people we've lost. Don't you think it's beautiful?
- The Doctor: I think it's horrific.
- The Doctor: If I'm the enemy, does that mean I'm a prisoner?
- Yvonne Hartman: Oh yes, but we'll make you perfectly comfortable.
- [Rose has been discovered and Yvonne shows her to the Doctor via a video on the laptop]
- Yvonne Hartman: One of yours?
- The Doctor: [lying] Nope, never seen her before in my life.
- Yvonne Hartman: Then it will be ok for us to shoot her.
- The Doctor: [defeated] Oh well, it was worth a try.
- The Doctor: Ear-pieces; earpods, this world is colliding with another. And I know which one.
- [He and Yvonne are surrounded by shadowy figures]
- Yvonne Hartman: What are they?
- The Doctor: The advance guard. They came through first.
- [the figures begin to tear through the plastic]
- The Doctor: Cybermen!
- Mickey Smith: Those aren't Cybermen.
- [Daleks begin to fly out of the sphere]
- Rose Tyler: Oh my God!
- Dalek: Location: Earth.
- Supreme Dalek: Life forms detected! Exterminate! Exterminate! EXTERMINATE!
- Rose Tyler: Doctor, they've got guns.
- The Doctor: And I haven't! Which makes me the better person, don't you think? They can shoot me dead, but the moral high ground is mine!
- [last lines]
- Dalek: Location Earth.
- Supreme Dalek: Life forms detected! Exterminate!
- Daleks: Exterminate! Exterminate! EXTERMINATE!
- Dr. Rajesh Singh: Samuel, what the hell are you doing?
- Mickey Smith: The name's Mickey. Mickey Smith, defending the earth!
- The Doctor: But I don't understand; the cybermen don't have the technology to build a void ship. How did you manage it?
- Cyber Leader: The sphere is not ours. We followed it its wake; its origin is unknown to us.
- The Doctor: Then what's inside?
- Rose Tyler: Doctor, they've got guns.
- The Doctor: And I haven't, which makes me the better person, don't you think? They can shoot me dead, but the moral high ground is mine.
- The Doctor: Oh, all right it was worth a try. That's... that's Rose Tyler.
- Rose Tyler: Sorry. Hello.
- Yvonne Hartman: But if that's Rose Tyler, who is she?
- Jackie Tyler: I'm her mother.
- Yvonne Hartman: [addressing Doctor] Oh, you travel with her mother?
- Jackie Tyler: He kidnapped me!
- The Doctor: [to Yvonne] Please, when Torchwood comes to write my complete history... Don't tell people I traveled through time and space with her mother.
- Jackie Tyler: [scoffs] Charming.
- The Doctor: I've got a reputation to uphold!
- Dalek: But your weapon is harmless...
- The Tenth Doctor: It's harmless, that's why I like it, doesn't kill doesn't maim, but I'll tell you what it does do, it is very good at opening doors
