Sorry,couldn't resist.
Come here,you! Good to see you.
Hey,Tosh,you're looking good.
Season02 Episode05
Adam,what are you doing
with your personnel file?
Nothing,just finished updating
details of rift activity.
Any idea when this came through?
It's got a low meson energy reading.
No,I'll keep looking.
- A year ago today.
- Our first kiss.
You remembered.
You OK,Owen?
Er,yes,yes,don't worry about me.
No,no,it'sjust,er
kissing in work
I wasn't expecting it.
We'll celebrate tonight.
Save it.
You OK?
Yeah,fine.
- Did you miss me?
- Were you gone?
just doing a quick check.
We had rift activity two days ago,but
nothing seems to have come through.
Apart from me!
What's that?
It's a screen-cleaner.
I thought you might like it,um
Do you like it?
just what I need.
A small rodent
looking at me while I work.
Think I'll call it Owen.
HE SIGHS He's like a
puppy,bringing her sticks.
When's he gonna realise
he's got no chance?
Love's blind,apparently.
He's idolised her for years now.
I think it's sweet.
He's happy.
Sorry,I didn't mean to frighten you.
- How did you get in?
- With a key!
This isn't funny.
Stay back,all right? Stay back!
Gwen,what's going on?
How do you know my name? Eh?
I know how to use this.
- Who are you? What do you want?
- You know who I am
Fine,if you won't tell me fine.
You stay there.
Don't you move.
jack
Yeah,someone's broken into my flat.
He had a key.
He knows my name.
- Because I live here with you!
- Shut it! Shut it!
Can you hurry,jack? He's a nutter.
You have picked the
wrong girl to stalk,mate.
- Gwen?
- Stay there!
Jack?
Gwen,it's us!
In here,jack!
- What's going on?
- You tell me.
Look,he's put photos of us up.
He must have done it while
I was at work.
He's deluded!
Says he's my boyfriend.
He is.
It's Rhys.
I've never seen him before in my life!
- You've been with him for years.
- See!
Give me the gun,Gwen.
No!He grabbed me,jack.
Who knows what he was going to do?
How can you say that?!
- What have you done?
- Nothing.
kind of sick games you play.
Pills to make you forget Are you
phasing me out so you can have her?
- Stay away from him.
- We're engaged!
I bought you the bloody
ring you're wearing!
Why don't you come with me to the Mont
- Who the hell are you?
- He's one of us.
We can check you.
jack will
stay and take care of things.
OK.
Don't let him go.
If he comes
after me again,I'll kill him.
Trust me,I didn't do this.
But whatever's happened
we'll put it right.
Right,well,no signs of long-term
damage,as far as I can see.
Or alien intervention.
But,I must be missing something.
I'm sorry,but it's a mystery to
me why you can't remember Rhys.
Is this really necessary?
She needs to remember.
HE SIGHS Where did you meet?
Er,college.
Fancied her from the moment I saw her.
Notjust her looks,you know,I
mean she is a looker,er.
.
.
'Tell me about your first kiss.
'Erm,in the supermarket.
'I was going to make her spag bol.
.
.
'then I realised,didn't
I? 'Bloody garlic.
'Can't kiss a girl with garlic breath.
Do you remember that?
Sort of.
It's like I'm
'I said,I wanted to do something else.
'
I'm seeing what he's saying,but
I don't remember how I felt.
Believe me when I tell you
that that is your fiance.
Your memory'sjust playing
tricks on you,that's all.
'She starts to laugh.
'She calls me Rhys the Rant 'and then
she kissed me,right there in the queue.
'
And I thought then,jack,I thought,'
I'm going to marry this bloody
mad woman,'even if it kills me.
'
BEEPING Worked out
what that thing is yet?
No joy yet.
But you should have a look at
the detail,Tosh.
It's gorgeous.
Have you managed to open it yet?
Er,no,sorry.
I'm not doing very well,am I?
It's gonna be a long night.
Yes,which is why I brought.
.
.
.
.
some sandwiches!
One for you And one for me.
Smoked salmon,that is
your favourite,isn't it?
How d'you know that?
I'm gonna need a beer.
What,while we're working?!
Yeah,right,relax,kick
back,it's a good idea.
Er,not for me though,thanks!
Don't leave me,jack.
You'll be OK.
What was that all about?
Temporary amnesia.
0wen's
checking possible causes.
Weevil sighting by the
sewer in Rockall Street.
Jack_ Jack;
- Can you see him?
- Who?
I'll drop you off and
check out the sighting.
I could come with you.
It's been a while since
we went hunting together.
I'll be fine on my own.
DOOR SH UTS Go on.
Live a little.
HE SIGHS Well,as it's you.
Thank you.
Call it a celebration.
Oh,yes?
Adam and I have been
together for one year today.
Right,right.
A whole year.
My stomach still flips
when he touches me.
I've never known anything like it.
The two of us,we just fit.
D'you know what I mean?
Erm,not sure I do,no.
Don't worry.
You'll meet
the right girl one day.
Yeah.
Tosh
D'you really think I look like a rodent?
SHE LAUGHS Come on,we're going to
crack this box even if it kills us.
Come out,come out,wherever you are.
Giving me the runaround,huh?
You picked the wrong day,my friend.
SPLASHING Get out!
Get out,son.
Dad?
RUN!
Jack?
Was it down there? The Weevil?
No.
How did you get here?
I came with you,jack,remember?
Yeah,ofcourse.
Are you OK?
jack,what did you see?
My past.
- If what you say is true
- It is.
We love each other.
But how could I forget that?
Nothing in.
I WAS going
to take you out for a meal.
Didn't want the weekend
to finish,I suppose.
jack,please.
Talk to me.
What about the past?
Is it your childhood?
I've always been here for you,jack.
From the very beginning.
I'm the one you can confide in,remember?
It was meant to be buried.
I buried the memory over 150 years ago.
Why now?
Well,maybe it's time.
Maybe up until now,your
subconscious was protecting you.
But you can't block
out the past forever.
I can't afford to remember.
- jack,talk to me,please.
- Why?
I can help.
Trust me.
I'm not sure I should do this.
just tell me what you see.
I can help you.
That's why I'm here.
Where are you,jack?
Boeshane Peninsula.
My home in the 51st century.
We lived under the threat of invasion.
They came without warning.
We thought they'd pass over
us,like they always did.
But they didn't.
- Not that day.
- Who?
The most horrible creatures
you could possibly imagine.
Their howls travelled before them.
Run! Take Gray.
Keep him safe!
- Take Gray.
- Gray?
My little brother.
No,no,Dad.
Come with us.
No,I've got to go get your mother.
Run!
One minute,I was holding his hand.
I don't know when he let go.
Gray?
Gray?
Gray! Gray,where are you? Gray!
One minute,his hand was in
mine,I don't know when he let go.
I don't thinkl noticed,I thought
he was there,just behind me.
Gray!
I retraced my steps,hoping
that I'd see him again.
Did you find him?
Gray!
I ran all the way home.
Where are you? Gray!
jack,what did you find?
Dad?
No!
Can someone help? Please!
I searched for Gray for years.
I never found the body.
It wasn't your fault.
I let go of his hand!
It was the worst day of my life.
It's the last thing I want to remember.
So,according to the molecular breakdown,
this potentially alien complex
artefact is,in fact,made out of wood.
Well,perhaps it fell
in the crate by mistake.
Picked up meson energy
from the other stuff.
Yeah,right!
I thinkjack brought it in.
No,I'm sure Adam found it on
an excavation a few months back.
I'll have a look in the diary.
I like to log the interesting stuff.
You write about artefacts in your diary?
Among other things.
So,we are done for the night.
I guess.
Everything all right?
Yeah,just,Adam hasn't rung yet.
Sure he will.
I know I would,if it
was our anniversary.
I wouldn't disappear.
Infact,I would.
.
.
cherish you.
Ah,Owen!
Yeah,no,no,really,really,Iwould.
Infact,I wouldn't let you
out of my sight,Tosh
.
.
because I love you.
What?
Yeah,there we are.
I've
said it.
I love you.
Yes,I always have,actually,ever
since we started working together,
and in fact,I actually ache for you.
When you're in the room,I want
to reach out and touch you and
- Owen!
- No,no,no,
I can't keep this secret any more!
My mum said to me,'Seize the
day',and so I am seizing it,
and I've got so much
love to give you,Tosh,
and you won't know
that unless I tell you.
So here I am,telling
you that I love you.
You know I know there's
Adam,OK,but you know,I think
In fact,I know that we
would be amazing together,
erm.
.
.
if you would only
just give it a chance.
Oh,God.
Say something.
That is completely inappropriate.
- Pardon?
- What are you thinking of?
- I'm sorry,Ijust wanted you to know.
- How dare you! I'm with Adam.
And even if I wasn't.
.
.
you're not my type.
Never will be.
Maybe I should be on my own tonight.
No way.
What if you forget who you are?
I know who I am.
It's not just you who's lost something.
MOBILE PHONE RINGS But you remember.
All you know about me.
You're my girl,my best friend.
Suddenly,all that's gone.
A stormer of a night!
What about her,mate?
Where's he going now?
He just walked off!
He knows I'm waiting.
Here you are.
Keep the change.
Buy some spot cream!
I'm not coming here
again.
It's overpriced.
There's a £1.
50 charge on the cash
machine.
It's a bloody disgrace.
GWEN LAUGHS Honestly.
Kids these days.
Don't know the meaning of hard work.
- What?
- Rhys the Rant!
Always when you're
in a queue,or driving,
or when you're on the phone to one
of those automated phone thingies.
.
.
Hey,it's OK.
It's OK.
SHE CRIES Come on,sweetheart.
What's wrong?
My
diary.
--
You're not in it.
Everyone else is.
Why would I leave you out
when you've been here so long?
Like I'm remembering a
man who doesn't exist.
What are you?
Cross me,and I will fill
you full of fake memorie
until your head is on
fire,because that's howl exist.
Gwen.
What did you do to her?
Memory is a very delicate thing.
Feeding myself in wiped
other memories out.
It's a side-effect of what I
have to do in order to survive.
jack has to know.
Remember this.
I know you didn't mean to kill her.
You just couldn't stop yourself.
Remember this.
I didn't do that.
Please don't hurt me!

All human record is a lie.
You twist it into what
you want to believe.
But we know the rot in your heart.
You crave flesh.
No.
Please.
Remember it.
Remember it.
Remember it!
Remember it! Remember it!
I helped you dump the bodies.
It's me you call.
You know,I forgot what a rush
it is,feeding in the bad stuff.
Franklin? Franklin,wake up.
Please!
Mom?
Where's Gray?
Where's Gray?
Where is he,son?
Where is he?
We were running so fast.
One moment,his hand was in mine
No,not my little boy!
Not my little boy!
Why now?
Why now?
Anything?
It's still a bit of a
blur,but I'm getting there.
That's all we've got,really.
Memories.
That's what brought us to here.
To this point.
We found it before,we'll find it again.
You know,I,um,I always
worried that you'd.
.
.
.
.
that you'd just
settled for me,you know.
Cos if you met me now,Gwen,with
all that goes on in your life,
could be that you
wouldn't look twice at me.
Don't say that.
- Do you remember that?
- No.
It felt like the first time.
But it was nice.
I like that.
I know.
Remind me some more.
What's wrong?
How far would you go for me?
I need to know.
Would you die for me?
Yes.
Jack;
Ianto.
What's wrong?
You'll have to put me in the vaults.
Lock me up.
I killed three girls.
Strangled them.
Stop kidding around!
I'm serious.
I murdered them,in cold blood.
I took their bodies,and
You have to lock me away
.
.
before I turn on you.
None of you are safe.
Hey,hey,come here,come here.
What's happened to you?
I'm a monster.
Best lie detector on the planet.
If something's untrue,the
light turns red.
Go.

hands on her throat.
And it felt so good.
Squeezing the life out of her.
It reads as truth.
I don't believe it.
OK,tell me about the second girl.
She tried to get away
.
.
but I was too quick.
Pleading.
.
.
And I I didn't care.
Something in me wants to kill.
No.
This is not you.
Something's changed you.
You're not a murderer.
I'm certain of it.
'All human record is a lie.

Do you remember that?

you on your first day,remember.

JACK REWINDS 'Remember? Remember?'
Well,I came with you,jack,remember.
Remember,remember.
I can help you

Where's Adam's blood sample?
Everything's in order here.
When was it last updated?
Um2l��?hours ago.
Owen
About last night,um,it
was selfish of me.
Owen,I think the world of you.
.
.
I know.
I'm really sorry.
I don't want to
jeopardise our friendship.
The most important thing
is that you're happy.
Thank you.
Tosh You are
you are happy with Adam,aren't you?
Completely.
OK.
Hey,how are you today?
Um,things are coming back slowly.
Rhys thought I shouldn't
come into work but
Hey,we'll look after you.
You just have to give yourself time.
COITIC 0|’I,g|��?Up
THEY CHAT AND GIGGLE
Hey Ianto,come here.
You all right,mate?
Listen,I could *** a coffee.
Talk to me,Adam.
If that's even your name.
- What?
- What are you doing,jack?
He's not who you think he is.
He's been feeding himself
into our memories,by touch.
Is this some kind of sickjoke?
He didn't exist until two days ago.
Can somebody tell me
what's going on,please?
jack,we've known him for years.
- He is part ofthe team.
- No.
He just made you think that.
Come on,jack.
Ah,you don't get to me like that.
jack,you know me.
You recruited me three years ago.
When I think of my team I see you there.
But I don't feel anything for you.
No pride,no warmth
You,the one who I can confide
in,the one who unburied the dead.
jack,maybe you've forgotten
him.
Like I did with Rhys?
I should have spotted it then.
That wasn't stress.
That was him.
By making us think we know
him,he disturbs our real memories.
I have no idea what
you're talking about.
I'm taking him to the vaults.
-jack,this is ridiculous.
- No!
No!
- Tosh,that's not gonna help.
- It's fine.
I'm just going to lock him up.
Let him go.
I'm not going to harm him.
Why should I believe you?
Tosh,Tosh,we can talk about this.
Drop the gun,jack.
Get off me!
This is what y0u've done to us.
Move.
ADAM!!
Don't kill me.
I had to become part
of your memories in order to survive.
I didn't mean any harm.
- You've changed us.
- For the better!
You didn't remember who you were.
I helped you.
Look at Owen,all his cynicism gone.
He's a different man now.
Selfless,happier.
And Toshiko,too -
she's never been this confident.
How did you come here?Why us?
All of you have such unique
memories,specially you,jack.
All those extraordinary
memories you hold -
some hidden,some absent.
Your singular mind.
That's what drew me here.
Good job.
It's what we do best
wipe out aliens.
You can't shoot me.
You made me live.
And you always remember
what you killed
don't you,jack?
Our memories define us.
Adam changed those memories
changed who we are.
Now I have to help you all go
back,find a memory that defines you.
Rediscover who you are.
If I'm wrong,he'll still be
here when we've done this.
Let me take you back
to before we all met
Feel around for anything
that makes you what you are

the hidden and the forgotten.
Tell me where you are.
'The college canteen
'Rhys is sitting opposite
me,telling stupid jokes.

I will.

gave me meaning again.
You.
You each have a short-tern amnesia
pill.
It'll make you forget Adam.
We have to wipe out the last
go back to who we were.
I'm going to lose so much.
None of it was real.
He loved me
and I loved him.
It's no different from real memory.
He forced it on you.
You have to let it go.
Goodbye,Adam.
just me left.
jack,I know what it's like not to exist.
Please don't send me back there.
I have to.
What are you going to do?
This will wipe out the past two days.
Well,you'll still keep the bad memories.
Because they were always yours.
But what about the good times,jack?
What about the last good
memory of you and your dad?
- It's lost.
- I can help you find it.
I can take you back there.
Before I die.
Why would you do that?
I was in the void for so long,the colours
of this world almost blinded me,jack.
It was so beautiful after the
darkness and the stench of fear.
You gave me that.
Let me do this for you.
Come on.
You want this.
It's early evening
just me and Dad.
Oh,no,you don't!
JACK GIGGLES You're out!
You know,one day you won't want
to play with your old dad any more.
Never.
Are you there?
Yeah.
Me,Dad and
- Dad! Mom said I could play too.
.
.
- Gray.
Hey,Gray!
- All right,son.
One more.
- OK.
Whoa,I'll get it.
JACK LAUGHS I'm running for the ball!
Some other boy is there.
I don't know who.
- Can I play?
- Who are you?
- My name's Adam.
- Let me play.
Before it gets dark.
There's lots of room.
Hey,what are you doing?
Are you all right?
Ijust want to play.
He can play.
No!He doesn't belong here.
I don't want him playing with us.
I'm Adam.
Don't touch my dad.
Hey,easy!
Are you all right,Adam?
Yes,he just doesn't want to share.
Right,well,if you're going to
behave that way,we're going home.
- What?!
- Come on,Gray.
No,we don't leave yet.
We play some more,it gets dark,we
light a fire Mum joins us.
Come on,son.
I'll race you.
Race you!
Dad!
You did this.
You spoilt it.
I made it happen.
Dad! Dad,I love you.
Dad,wait Dad!!
I want the real memory back.
Then let me live.
That box you found contains my last
good memory of you,your dad and Gray.
You see,I'm a part of it now
and I'll always live as
long as you remember it.
That's why you took me back.
Wasn't it lovely?
Playing in the sand,no-one
knowing what was ahead
your dad laughing.
Gray,safe and happy.
I don't want to die!
You take that pill and you will
lose everything I've given you.
Wipe me out now and you will lose
all your memories of your father.
He will cease to have existed for you.
Goodbye,Adam.
Dad! Gray!
Come back! It wasn't like this!
Dad! Gray!
jack,how have we lost two days?
What d'you mean?
The last 48 hours.
None of us can remember a thing.
The system's blank,the
CCI’V's been wiped.
What's been going on?
What've we been doing?
I don't know.
Great! That's two days of my
life that I'll never get back!
Looks like Toshiko got herself
a secret admirer,though.
To Tosh,love and apologies,Owen.
They're from you!
In your dreams,Tosh.
I think
someone's winding you up,darling
No,I don't do flowers
.
.
and I definitely don't do apologies.
Did you call?
Found your diary.
Yep,been looking for that.
And for the record
measuring tapes never lie.
Yep?
Who's Adam?
Don't know.
