"They say you're supposed to talk to people when they're in [bad word]  don't they? I have absolutely no idea if you can hear me Jack, I never heard of [bad word] out of one and carrying on the conversation. So I suspect it's probably something the doctors tell us to do, to make us feel better, rather than help you. We don't feel so useless and helpless, we get the feeling that there's still some sort of purpose in out lives, we're not just waiting. Waiting for the science to work, or the miracle to happen or the nightmare to end. I'm not much of a talker Jack, you know that, but I'll talk to you now, on the off chance that it helps. Just promise me, if you're hearing this, that when [bad word] round, and you're going to Jack, you're [bad word] out of this, Just promise me you wont bring up anything I say to you now, how's that? We got a deal? This must be the longest I've ever looked at you and not seen you smile. I've watched you in your sleep, did you know that? So many times. Just woken up beside you in the middle of the night and watched you, watched your eyes moving behind your eyelids as you dreamed, I've tried to imagine what a man like you can possibly dream about. The things you've seen, the lives you've lived, the people you've loved. I wondered if you were dreaming about me, I hoped you were dreaming about me. But let's be honest Jack I'm nothing more than a blip in time for you. Everyday I grow a little older, but you're immortal, you've already lived a thousand life times. How can you watch me grow old and die? How can I watch you live and never age a day? I suppose we both know that'll never be a problem, not in this job. No-one in Torchwood ever lives to draw their pension do they? Ha. Even if by some miracle I survive to see my hair turn grey, or God forbid fall out, I don't kid myself that you'll still be around to see it. One day you'll go again just like you did before. And this time you won’t be back. Maybe that's what you're dreaming about those nights that I watch you sleeping. Maybe that's why, even when you sleep I see you smile. But you haven't gone yet Jack. I know that, I know [bad word] back to me."
