Quotes 

• John Smith : You knew this all along and yet you watched while Nurse Redfern and I...

  Martha Jones : I didn't know how to stop you. He gave me a list of things to watch out for, but that wasn't included.

  John Smith : Falling in love? That didn't even occur to him?

  Martha Jones : No.

  John Smith : Then what sort of man is that? And now you expect me to die?

• Joan Redfern : I'm Sorry, John. But you wrote about it. The Blue Box. You dreamt of a blue box.

  John Smith : I'm not...

  [tearful] 

  John Smith : I'm John Smith, that's all I want to be, John Smith. With his life... and his job... and his love. Why can't I be John Smith? Isn't he a good man? Why can't I stay?

  Martha Jones : But we need the Doctor.

  John Smith : Who am I then? Nothing...? I'm just a story?

• The Doctor : You're this doctor's companion, can't you help? What exactly do you do for him? Why does he need you?

  Martha Jones : Because he's lonely.

  The Doctor : [Horrified]  ... And that's what you want me to become?

• Joan Redfern : Women might train to be doctors, but hardly a scivvy and hardly one of your colour.

  Martha Jones : Oh, d'you think? Bones of the hand. Carpal bones, proximal row: scaphoid, lunate, triquetral, pisiform. Distal row: trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, hamate. Then the metacarpal bones extending in three distinct phalanges: proximal, middle, distal.

  Joan Redfern : You read that in a book.

  Martha Jones : Yes, to pass my exams!
