The Doctor
- The Doctor: And ignorance is, um, what's the opposite of bliss?
- Clara: Carlisle?
- The Doctor: Yes. Yes, Carlisle. Ignorance is Carlisle.
- The Doctor: Are you coming?
- Clara: Where?
- The Doctor: To find the ghost.
- Clara: Why would I want to do that?
- The Doctor: Because you want to. Come on.
- Clara: Well I dispute that assertion.
- The Doctor: It's the oldest story in the universe. This one or any other. Boy and girl fall in love, get separated by events - war, politics, accidents in time. She's thrown out of the hex or he's thrown into it. Since then they've been yearning for each other across time and space. Across dimensions. This isn't a ghost story, it's a love story.
- Emma Grayling: You didn't come her for the ghost, did you?
- The Doctor: No.
- Emma Grayling: You came here for me.
- The Doctor: Yes.
- Emma Grayling: Why?
- The Doctor: I needed to ask you something.
- Emma Grayling: Then ask.
- The Doctor: Clara.
- Emma Grayling: Yes?
- The Doctor: What is she?
- Emma Grayling: [taken aback] She's a girl.
- The Doctor: Yes, but what kind of girl, specifically?
- Emma Grayling: She's a perfectly ordinary girl. Very pretty, very clever, more scared than she lets on.
- The Doctor: And that's it, is it?
- Emma Grayling: Why? Is that not enough?
- Emma Grayling: Doctor, will it hurt?
- The Doctor: No... well yes, probably... a bit... well quite a lot. I don't know. It might be agony. To be perfectly honest, I'll be interested to find out.
