All language subtitles for Torchwood.S02E08.BRRip.x264-ION10

JACK: Torchwood.

Outside the government,
beyond the police.

Fighting for the future
on behalf of the human race.

The 2 1 st century
is when everything changes

and Torchwood is ready.

My name is Dr Owen Harper

and this is my life.

A life that is full
of action and violence

and work and wonder.

Secrets and sex and love

and heartbreak

and death.

My death.

The death I survived.

The death I am now living through.

Except this isn't living.

Every day is the same.

I get up. Get ready for work,

same as everyone else.

The thing is, I'm not the same.

I get to work and everyone's doing
the same old thing.

Babbling away about aliens and weddings.

I'm not real.

Three days ago, I died.

And they think I'm fine,

but they're wrong.

So, you ready to jump?

Would you just piss off?
Get off my roof.

Your roof?

I'm going to jump,
so just leave me alone.

Look, darling, you know,
I'm not here to stop you.

Seriously.

You think you've got problems?
What, did your man dump you?

Sorry, love, are you talking to me?
It's just I'm a bit busy right now.

I'm not really interested
in listening...

What is that?

I got shot.

Yeah, right.

Oh, my God! What the hell are you?

I'm dead.

That's not... Look, you can't be dead.

You're standing here. You're talking,
you're moving. You're not dead!

You're... You're dead!

Yeah, I was brought back.

Like Jesus, really,
but without the beard, you know.

Shit, I'm never gonna have a beard.
Not that I wanted one, you understand,

-but, you know, one day I...
-Okay. Okay. You're dead and that's...

That's clearly a bit shit
and I'm sorry and everything

but if you are dead,
then why are you here?

You can't be wanting to jump.
You can't die twice!

-Sorry, are you an expert?
-Sorry, are you an idiot?

-Yeah. I'm a dead idiot.
-So, come on then, what's it like?

What?

Well, being dead.

What delights have I
got to look forward to?

Darkness.

Nothing.

Cheery, thanks.

Look, why are you here?

JACK: Dr Owen Harper,
Torchwood Officer 565,

I'm relieving you of your position.

Bollocks.
I'm sorry, Jack, this is bollocks!

Hand in your weapon
and your security pass.

Why? I'm fine.

Three days ago, you died.
We need to examine you.

We need to find out what you are.

We need to be certain you're okay.

Yeah, it almost sounds
as if you care. Well done.

Until I'm confident you're fit for duty,

Martha Jones will replace you
as Torchwood's new medical officer.

She's doing all right out of this,
isn't she?

She's worked out
a series of tests and examinations.

What if I refuse?

You'll be confined to the cells,
the tests will be done

and if the results show
that you're a danger to the team,

appropriate steps will be taken.

I'm asking you, Owen. Please.

Let us help you.

Let us make sure you're safe.

(SIGHS)

I'm going to need your gun.

And your security pass.

Please.

And how long
are DrJones's tests going to take?

As long as they need to.

And what the hell am I supposed to do
in the meantime?

We always need someone to make coffee.

Oh, no.

Voilà. Fresh and strong.

And we couldn't just have
a jar of instant, no?

I thought you liked your coffee?

Have you seen what happens
when I drink these days?

Yeah, thank you, Owen. Do you want a go?

Ooh, please.

Come on. What's wrong with this?

You, umm...

You okay?

What do you think?

I bet you're loving this, aren't you?
It's like you've finally won.

I didn't realise we were in competition.

Oh, come on! Even Tosh
had more of a life than you used to.

And now you're always out on missions,

you're shagging Jack and
I'm stuck here making the coffee.

It's not like that.

-Me and Jack.
-Yeah, yeah. You and Jack.

Gwen's getting married.
Martha's got her bloke.

God, even Tosh had Tommy.
This is really shit.

We've all gone through shit.

I've seen you dissecting alien corpses.

I've seen you save so many lives.

Are you really gonna let this beat you?

(BEEPING)

So, you're choosing me
over the boyfriend?

Yeah, that's it.

You really don't need to worry,
you know, I don't want your job.

Yes, I know.
You just find me irresistible.

Oh, yeah. That's it.

Every morning I wake up and think
of ways to get you alone like this.

There is no sign of any muscle decay.
You're in great shape, as ever.

No use coming onto me, Jones.
I'm a changed man.

And no stiffening anywhere?

Well...

Just answer the question.

No, no signs of rigor mortis.

So, if I keep up
the exercise, I won't atrophy?

Yep. And a bonus, definitely looks
like you're not going to age either.

There's no further sign
of cell mutation.

You're 100% human.

100% Owen.

(INTERCOM BEEPS)

GWEN: Hi, Martha.
Meeting in the boardroom.

Can you come down?

You'd better go. Doctor.

What about you?

-Cappuccino with chocolate sprinkles.
-What?

That's what you drink, isn't it?

HenryJohn Parker. Used to be a looker,

now he's 80 odd
and even I have my limits.

Your basic millionaire collector
of alien hoo-hah.

Didn't we file him
in the "mostly harmless" category?

-So, what's the problem?
-I detected this at 5:17 this morning.

TOSHIKO: Parker's house.
There's an energy spike coming from it.

I've never seen anything like it before.

Okay. So, the big question is, what's
our Mr Parker gone and found this time?

Why? Do you think he's a threat?

Well, he hasn't been up until now.
He's a bit Howard Hughes.

We know he's there,
we know he's not a threat,

but, as the story goes, he hasn't left
the house since his wife died.

Nobody's seen him since 1986.

We've been monitoring Parker for ages.

There's nothing to be scared of,
is there?

Unlike, say, Tintin?

Okay, I never liked Tintin.

What, he's weird. Funny face.
And his hair is just, it's horrible.

-I always loved Tintin.
-Well, you would.

And he never had a girlfriend,
did he, just the dog.

So I reckon
he was actually shagging the dog.

Okay, meanwhile, back at Torchwood.
Alien energy pulse.

We've got to check
this Parker out, okay?

Tosh, can you get me
a complete schematic of the house?

Ianto, find out exactly what he's got.

Get me an inventory of everything
that he's bought over the last 10 years.

Martha, can you get a hold
of his medical history.

-Sure.
-GWEN: Okay, let's get to it, guys.

JACK: Hey, Gwen,
any news on Banana Boat?

GWEN: Can you believe it?
Best man arrested in Lanzarote.

IANTO: What for?
GWEN: Ah, dodgy CDs.

OWEN: Worldwide, nearly a million people
kill themselves each year.

That's almost three times
the population of Cardiff.

Makes you think.

What are you? Some sort of suicide geek?

No, just a doctor.

In fact, I'm not just a doctor.

I'm a bloody brilliant doctor.

-MARTHA: I know you are.
-So why are you doing my job?

-Because Gwen asked me to.
-That's not what I mean.

Because you died,

and because you need help.
That's not a bad thing.

Well, it is a bad thing
that you died, obviously,

but it's not bad that you need help.
If you know what I mean.

You're kinda cute when you babble.

And you're kinda cute when
you're not chucking a scalpel about.

But I'm making the sodding coffee!

I mean, come on,
won't your bloke be missing you?

How about Jack? Has he seen Jack? They
always get jealous when they meet Jack.

Owen, I don't want your job.
I just want to do mine.

Okay, I'm dead, but I am 100% human.

I'm fine.

You've sliced your hand open.

The wound's not going to heal, so,

you're going to have to
re-stitch it every week or so.

At least you don't need anaesthetic.

Yeah, can't feel anything.

I can't feel the needle or thread.

I can't feel your hands on mine.

Yet I can touch things.

I can hold them.

I know they're there, but

I just can't feel anything.

I'm numb.

Do you see whyJack's worried?

Bruises won't heal, bones won't mend.
You're fragile.

Yeah, well, I'd better get used
to doing things myself.

MAGGIE: So she offers to help you
and you push her away.

Charming.

Yeah, hole in the chest.

Sorry if I don't follow
social niceties any more.

You mean you did before?

God, you're a pain in the arse,
aren't you?

Is that why your man dumped you?

Oh, I hit a nerve?
What, did you get your heart broken?

No, actually. He died.

I'm sorry.

No, you're not.

You couldn't care less about me
and I don't care about you.

Just because we're both
planning on jumping,

it doesn't mean
we have some sort of special connection.

You don't know the half of it.

OWEN: Give me something to do.

You know I can't. Rules and regulations.

-Fine. I might as well go home, then.
-Okay.

What exactly do I do when I get there?

Watch TV, chill.

Jack, I'm dead. I'm permanently chilled.

You know, you get to live forever.

I get to die forever.

It's funny that.

(MAN ON TELEVISION)

Oh, hello, and welcome to
To Buy or Not to Buy,

the property show
that lets you indulge in your long...

(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)

(DOORBELL RINGING)

-Do you mind if I eat? I'm starving!
-No, help yourself.

So, Jack asked you
to come round, did he?

Talk to Owen.
Get him to open up, God damn it!

You haven't changed, have you?
It's all about Owen.

I've actually had a hell of
a morning, you know. Do you have a...

Top drawer.

So, Jack calls me in
at 5:00 this morning.

He could have waited until
I got in, but no, strange energy spike,

and it's "Let's get Tosh in".

Oh, and when Gwen got in,
first thing she did,

say sorry for not asking me
to be bridesmaid.

I mean, me, a bridesmaid?

MAGGIE: You sound like
an old married couple.

Brian used to say I talked too much.

Tell me about him.

Today's my wedding anniversary.

My perfect day.

It was an accident.

We'd been married less than an hour.

I was picking confetti out of my hair
when it happened.

-Shit...
-I'm sorry. Yeah, I know.

You've waited until your wedding
anniversary to kill yourself? Why?

-Does it matter?
-Why have you waited?

Because I believe people. I believed
them when they said it would get better.

So, what do you think, Doctor?

Do you really think
it's going to get any better?

TOSHIKO: ...a message from the stars.

And guess what, it's Croatian.

I ran it through the language translator
and it's flipping Croatian.

Why are you here, Tosh?

I want to help you.

And how are you going to do that?
How are you going to help me?

I mean, am I going to be
a new special project?

-Come on, Owen, I just...
-That's not why you're here, is it?

For some reason, you want me.

You know, I don't know why,
but you always have.

You're always looking at me,
watching me screw all those other women,

your heart breaking,
and now it's different,

because I'm safe now, aren't I?

And it's all cosy and it's romantic
and isn't it beautiful, you know.

You can say what you like.
I'm not leaving you.

Well, of course you're not.
Because this is it, isn't it?

This is the date
that we were talking about.

You know, you've got your beer,
you've got pizza, you and me.

It's just how you wanted it.
All we need now is a sodding pool table.

Stop it! What's wrong with you?

I'm broken Tosh! I don't work.
I've got no heartbeat,

no feelings, no tears,
I have got nothing to give you!

-I...
-Do you understand that?

Maybe that's what you want,
maybe you want somebody

who's as screwed up as you!

Who's twisted
and screwed up like you are.

Well, you want to see broken?
Do you want to see broken?

Owen! Stop it! What are you doing?

-Thirty six minutes. Not bad.
-You were watching?

Skinny guy in tight jeans
runs into water?

I was taking pictures.

How long's this
going to go on for, Owen?

Ianto, what have you
found out about Parker?

I've identified some of the things
he's purchased over the past year.

We've got a Dogon eye. A pair of
Myakian wings, some meteorites.

An Arcateenian translation
of James Herbert's The Fog.

But there are a few things
we've never seen before.

So one of these is
causing the energy spikes?

Looks like it, and they're
getting bigger. Dangerously bigger.

Right, okay, we need to get in there.

Parker employs a Mr Philip Farrington
to run security.

There's at least six guards,
CCTV everywhere.

All of which we can bring down
by taking out the generator.

But then there's these.

-Heat sensors.
-MARTHA: As in body heat?

Yep. Solar-powered.

There's one in every doorway,
every window.

So, how do we get past them?

OWEN: Sounds like you need a dead man.

Someone with no body heat.

What have you got to lose?

Tosh.

I turned your telly off.

You screamed at her,
you said all those things and that's it?

That's Tosh. Always the professional.

I don't care.

I'm not interested in you,
in old men or alien meteors.

I came here because my husband died.
I just want to jump.

Let's get on with it, then.

-You, you're too scared.
-Aren't you?

How did...
How did you get from that to here?

What happened?

If you hurt yourself,
you will not recover.

It's like I said, any bruises you get,
they're not going to heal.

Do not engage in physical combat.
One punch, you're gone.

-Be careful.
-I understand, I'm made of glass.

Owen.

Just take care.

Oh, and you'll need this.

TOSHIKO: Owen.

Yeah, hi, Tosh.

Okay, the power in the house is supplied
from one private electrical generator.

There's a backup unit
but take the main one down

and you've got one minute 20
of blackout time.

You can only get rid
of one of the blokes, yeah?

Might look a bit suspicious
if there were two phone calls.

Try and make it the big one, okay?

(MOBILE PHON E RINGING)

-Arse.
-Hello?

-Mr Taylor?
-Yeah, that's right. Who's this?

I'm calling from St Helen's Hospital.

Mrs Christine Taylor was brought in
an hour ago.

-She's been involved in a car accident.
-Is she hurt?

She's going to be fine
but she's asking to see you.

Of course, I'm on my way.

-You all right?
-It's Chrissie.

She's been in an accident.
Look, I've got to go.

Yeah, of course.

Mr Farrington. Ben's had to go.
His wife's been in an accident.

Okay, guys, I'm here.

Move away from there. I said...

Yeah, okay, guys. Very funny.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
Do you want to see what I can do?

What?

I'm dead already, mate.

FARRINGTON: Webb? Dave, are you there?

TOSHIKO: One minute 20 until
the backup generator comes online.

Farrington to all units.

The backup generator will be running
in 45 seconds.

Stay at your posts, please.

Mr Parker's personal generator
is unaffected.

TOSHIKO: Sorry, Owen.
They've obviously had some work done.

Heat sensors.

I am literally too cool for school.

Right, I'm in.

TOSHIKO: Okay, the energy reading seems
to be coming from the first floor.

-A room at the back of the house.
-Can you give me anything else?

No. The energy source
is playing havoc with the system. Sorry.

No worries.
I'm getting used to being in the dark.

Hold it there.

Evening. Nice place you've got here.
Love what you've done with the pictures.

Who are you?

Why aren't the sensors picking you up?

Okay, stop!

Stop, or I'll shoot.

No, you won't. You're a security guard.

That gun's just for show, isn't it?

Do you know what a bullet does
to a living person?

It's not like a knife through butter.
No, no, no, no.

It rotates, tears into the flesh
and the gooey stuff behind.

Rips into the organs,
ooh, it's not nice.

But, anyway, I haven't got any body
heat, you must know what that means.

You can't kill a dead man.

What are you?

I'm wrong.

-What are you?
-I'm broken.

I'm Dr Owen Harper.
And I'm having one hell of a day.

Yes?

It's okay, mate.
I'm not going to hurt you. I'm a doctor.

You're a very violent doctor.
I've been watching you.

Henry Parker, yeah?

You're Torchwood, yeah?

P ARKER: Did the American send you?
OWEN: Yeah, he sent me.

OWEN: How do you know so much about us?

They could have sent that Japanese girl.
I liked her.

Yeah, well, I'm sorry, you got me.

Is she on your phone thing?
The earpiece?

Hello! Just to say
that you've got very lovely legs.

You should show them off more.

What's wrong with you?

Three heart attacks and a failed bypass.

But I'm fine because I have this.

It's called the Pulse.

-You know what it is?
-I named it.

It's keeping me alive.
No! You're not taking it.

It could be dangerous.

We've been detecting
massive energy readings.

I don't care. All I know is it works.

-Well, I'm sorry, it doesn't.
-What?

The energy isn't going into you.

The power's just building up
inside that thing.

That's what we've been detecting

but it isn't actually
doing anything for you.

You're wrong. I can feel it.

No. No. I'm not going to die.

Listen, please, listen to me.

There are loads
of people's lives at risk.

If that thing explodes, then we
don't know what the fall-out will be.

You're young, you don't understand
what dying feels like.

Believe me, I do. I really do.

-There's nothing there!
-Where?

On the other side, nothing,

I'm dying.
Take away my Pulse and I'm gone.

-My body decomposing.
-You can't stop it, Mr Parker.

I'm sorry
but it's going to happen one day.

It'll be dark and I'll be alone.

Where are you now?
It's dark, and you're all alone.

So what's the difference?

I don't understand
what's keeping me here.

(COUGHING)

Deep breath, deep breath.

It's hope.

That thing, it's just hope.

Do you really think
all this is better than death?

It's got to be. It is better!

You're just scared of the darkness.

Join the club.

Trust me,
I know how shit everything can be.

Don't you sit there pontificating.

You're just a boy.
What do you know about anything?

I've travelled the world.
I fought in the war.

Started my own business.
I made a fortune!

Married. Widowed.

My collection, all of it,
I've done so much.

And this is where I ended up, alone,

lying in my own piss.

And do you know what I want?

Clean sheets?

I want a steak.

Medium rare. Black pepper sauce.

Look at me. Fed through a tube.

I might as well be dead already.

I might as well be dead.

Why don't you take it?

Take it.

Well?

Oh, Christ, it's dark.

I'm alone, I'm so alone.

It's all right, I'm here with you.

(MOANS)

I'm still stuck here, though.

In this bed. In the dark.

You know what?

I'm going to come back.

You and me,

we're going to face
all of this together.

I'm going to help you.

Torchwood! If you come back,

you can tell me all about it.

Tell me what it's like.

I want to hear about
the aliens and everything!

I need to know
that there's more out there.

That this isn't all there is.

Oh, come on, I'm dying.

Who am I going to tell?
The Angel Gabriel?

If you come back,

I won't tell the Japanese girl

that you're still holding my hand.

Well, maybe.

(GASPING)

Take a deep breath.

Mr Parker.

(H EART MONITOR FLATLINING)

Henry?

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry!

OWEN: I couldn't save him.

He needed me
to give him air, but I couldn't.

I've got no breath.

Everything I've seen,
everything that's out there,

and it was an old man
dying of a heart attack.

It was just another person dying
because of me.

Everything that's happened
and that was the final straw.

Because at that moment,

I just wanted it all to end.

TOSHIKO: Owen.

Owen, can you hear me?

Owen, come in!

-Yes. Yeah, I'm here.
-The device? Is it doing anything

because the energy levels
coming from it are... Owen?

It's going off the screen.
It's going to explode!

-Tosh, what can we do?
-Nothing! There's nothing!

It's okay. I'm going to hold it.

-Owen, what are you doing?
-OWEN: See if I can absorb it.

Owen, the energy reading's
off the scale. You won't survive.

It's okay, these things happen.

There must be something we can do.

-Martha! Martha.
-Owen?

If it destroys me,
they're going to need a new doctor.

You've got all the credentials.

Medical skills and a cracking arse.

(BLEEPING)

OWEN: Jack?

If you even attempt
to bring me back again...

Gwen, Ianto...

It was fun. Mostly.

Thank you.

Tosh.

Tosh, come on, answer me.

TOSHIKO: Owen.

I'm sorry.

(RAPID BLEEPING)

I love you.

What happened?

We all assume life's going to be shit,
don't we?

That it's all just darkness.

But you know what?

Sometimes it's not.

What is it?

Do you remember in the '70s,

NASA sent messages into space.

A map of our solar system,
pictures of what we look like.

It had images, voices, music.

Even a bit of Chuck Berry.

Well, this is a reply.

Not that we know who from.

Well, what does it do?

It sang to me.

It's a glimmer of light in the darkness.

See? Sometimes it does get better.

Well, I'm sorry, Dr Jones.

-No vacancies in Cardiff just yet.
-That's okay. I reckon you're...

I was going to say fine, but you're
a hell of a lot more than that.

Thank you.

For everything.

Oi.

It's what I'm here for.

-You take care.
-Okay.

-Well, it's been interesting.
-Oh, it's been fun.

You know it has.

Well, everyone else has had a go.

You can so come back any time.

Well, maybe I will. One day.

TOSHIKO: Promise me something.

-What's that?
-No more locking it all away.

You tell me when it's bad.
Share it with me.

Okay?

Okay.

Tosh, I'm scared.

I'm scared that if I close my eyes,
I'll get trapped.

In the darkness.

I'm here.

That's when I saw you.

-I thought you came here to jump.
-No.

I came here to help.

-What do I do now?
-You've got a choice.

If you think
that the darkness is too much

then go for it.

But if there is a chance,

just some hope...

It could be having a cigarette,

or that first sip of hot tea
on a cold morning.

Or it could be your mates.

If there is even a tiny glimmer of light

then don't you think
that's worth taking a chance?

What's your name?

Maggie. Maggie Hopley.

Well, Maggie,

it's up to you.

Your choice.

Do you still want to jump?

My name is Owen Harper
and this is my life.

OWEN: Careful, Gwen.
This thing eats people.

-And what is that exactly?
-GWEN: It's a shape-shifter.

JACK: With a taste for human flesh.

You're going to have to
postpone the wedding.

You're pregnant!

An alien egg in your belly.

And its mother coming to rip you open.

That is all we need.

In five hours,
I am walking down the aisle.

You are not thinking straight.

All I want to do today is marry you.

That's the problem with shape-shifters.

I'm not an alien.

OWEN: You never know
what you're looking at.
