Cyber-Skarosa: You are Clara Oswald. You are human. You are unimportant.
Clara: Incorrect. You see, that is what you're supposed to think. That is what everybody thinks.
Cyber-Skarosa: You are Clara Oswald.
Clara: Clara Oswald is a cover story, a disguise. There is no Clara Oswald.

Clara: Oh, don't be so slow, it's embarrassing. Who could fool you like this? Who could hide right under your nose? Who could change their face any time they want? Hmm. You see, I'm not Clara Oswald. Clara Oswald has never existed.

Kate: Kate Stewart. Divorcee, mother of two, keen gardener, outstanding bridge player. Also Chief Scientific Officer, Unified Intelligence Taskforce, who currently have you surrounded.
Cyberman: Human weaponry is not effective against Cyber technology.
Kate: Sorry, you left this behind on one of your previous attempts.

The Doctor: Everyone in London just clapped and went whee. Hush, I'm trying to count.
Osgood: 87, I think. OCD.
Missy: 91. Queen of evil.
Kate: How could Saint Paul's be full of 91 Cybermen and nobody noticed?
The Doctor: Dimensional engineering. One space folded inside another. Bigger on the inside. Easy if you're a Time Lord.
Osgood: Mostly deploying south, a smaller number east.
The Doctor: Yep, but one straight up.
Osgood: So 91 isn't a coincidence?
The Doctor: Of course it isn't.
Kate: Osgood? 91. Explain.
Osgood: 91 areas of significant population density in the British Isles.
The Doctor: That's one Cyberman for every city and major town. It's happening everywhere, all over the world, right now.
Missy: Sweet planet, this. I think I might keep it.
Kate: One Cyberman per city. What could they hope to accomplish?
Osgood: Doctor!
( explosion )
Kate: Has it exploded?
Missy: More than that. Cybermen don't just blow themselves up for no good reason, dear; they're not human.

Seb: Well, when I said "afterlife", I was being a tiny bit poetic. And Nethersphere's just a cool name we come up with during a spit-ball.
Danny: What is this place?
Seb: Well, you have to think of it as a data cloud. You know, for storing data. In this case, it's the storage of recently deceased minds.
Danny: We're in a cloud?
Seb: A sort of cloud, yeah.
Danny: And what's happening to it?
Seb: What happens to any cloud when it starts to rain.

The Doctor: You don't have a future without me. Do you think your father would've done this?
Kate: We both know he absolutely would.
Kate: Who is she?

Kate: Clara Oswald, your assistant?
The Doctor: My friend. She was with me in Saint Paul's.

Ahmed: Not the President of America, sir. The President of Earth.
The Doctor: There isn't one.
Ahmed: There is now.
Kate: The incursion protocols have been agreed internationally. In the event of full-scale invasion, an Earth President is inducted immediately, with complete authority over every nation state. There was only one practical candidate.
The Doctor: That's your answer for everything, isn't it? Vote for an idiot.
Kate: If you say so, Mister President. So long as you're on this plane, you're the Commander in Chief of every army on Earth. Every world leader is currently awaiting your instructions. You are the Chief Executive Officer of the human race. Any questions?

Clara: Well, gentlemen. Where to start? I was born on the planet Gallifrey, in the constellation of Kasterborous. I'm a Time Lord, but my Prydonian privileges were revoked when I stole a time capsule and ran away. Currently pilot a Type 40 TARDIS. I've been married four times, all deceased. My children and grandchildren are missing, and I assume, dead. I have a non-Gallifreyan daughter created via genetic transfer. How much more do you need? I'm the Doctor.
Cyber-Skarosa: This information is not proof. We require proof.
Clara: How about my name?
Cyber-Skarosa: Explain.
Clara: Well, my name isn't Doctor, is it? I don't even really have a doctorate. Well, Glasgow University, but then I accidentally graduated in the wrong century, so technically...
Cyber-Skarosa: This information cannot be confirmed.
Cyberman: You are Clara Oswald.
Clara: Ah, no. I'm not!
Cyberman: Your deception is intended to prolong your life.
Cyber-Skarosa: Your presence has not been ordered.
Cyberman: Correct. You are Clara Oswald.
Clara: Oh, seriously, this is getting old. Look, there is no Clara Oswald. I invented her. I made her up.
Cyberman: Born 23rd November, 1986.
Clara: Yeah, I chose that date. Always liked it.
Cyberman: Father: David James Oswald. Mother: Elena Alison Oswald.
Clara: Stories. Stories. Stories. I made them up. Look, ask anybody who knows me. I am an incredible liar.

The Doctor: That was fairly quick.
Osgood: We do have files on all our ex-prime ministers. She wasn't even the worst. Doctor, there's something nobody's talking about.
The Doctor: Which is?
Osgood: The clouds caused by the exploding Cybermen, they haven't dispersed. They're still there. In fact, they've expanded and are covering almost all the land masses. We're all looking at the graveyards. Maybe we should be looking up? What do you think?

Ahmed: Active?
The Doctor: Hatching.
Kate: More are coming. Potentially millions.
Ahmed: So the rain caused all that in just a few hours?
The Doctor: It wasn't rain, Man Scout. It was pollen. Cyber-pollen. Every tiny particle of a Cyberman contains the plans to make another Cyberman. All it has to do is to make a contact with compatible living organic matter and bang! Full conversion. But if they have learned how to convert the dead.
The Doctor: That's what she was doing. That's what 3W was for. She creates an all-new paranoia among the super-rich about dying. She exploits the wealth and the mortal remains of selected idiots so she can create a whole new race of Cybermen. Cybermen who can recruit corpses. Throw away your guns, Man Scout, it's all over. How can you win a war against an enemy that can weaponise the dead?
Ahmed: They're not attacking, apart from isolated incidents. They're just wandering about.
The Doctor: They're newborns. Give them time. Why were you there this morning? Why were you already attacking?
Kate: Been investigating 3W for a while, then we got a tip-off.
Ahmed: From a woman with a Scottish accent.
The Doctor: Can't play to the gallery unless there's a gallery, and here I am.
The Doctor: Dead bodies don't have minds, of course, but she's been upgrading dying minds to a hard drive for a long time. So she upgrades the hardware, and then she updates the software.
Kate: What do you mean, a long time? How long?
The Doctor: Well, she must have a TARDIS somewhere, so as long as she likes. The past, the future...
Kate: How long, Doctor?

The Doctor: What gift?
Missy: Cyberdears! Look at Mummy! Raise your arms. Lower your arms. Raise your right. Lower your right. Turn on the spot. There are exits at the front and rear of the aircraft. Please follow the lights up the aisle. You see, Doctor? The power to slaughter whole worlds at a time, then make them do a safety briefing. Everyone who ever lived, man, woman and child, is now at my command. An indestructible army to rage across the universe. The more they kill, the more they recruit. Happy birthday. Oh! You didn't know, did you? It's lucky one of us remembers these things. Happy birthday... ♪ Mr. President. ♪
Cyberman: Doctor.
Missy: Tiny bit pleased? Oh, go on, crack a smile. I want to see if your eyebrows drop off.
The Doctor: All of this. All of it, just to give me an army?
Missy: Well, I don't need one, do I? Armies are for people who think they're right. And nobody thinks they're righter than you. Give a good man firepower, and he'll never run out of people to kill.
The Doctor: I don't want an army!
Missy: Well, that's the trouble! Yes, you do! You've always wanted one! All those people suffering in the Dalek camps? Now you can save them. All those bad guys winning all the wars? Go and get the good guys back.
The Doctor: Nobody can have that power.
Missy: You will, because you don't have a choice. There's only way you can stop these clouds from opening up and killing all your little pets down here. Conquer the universe, Mister President. Show a bad girl how it's done.
The Doctor: Why are you doing this?
Missy: I need you to know we're not so different. I need my friend back. Every battle, every war, every invasion. From now on, you decide the outcome. What's the matter, Mister President? Don't you trust yourself?
[ FLASHBACK ]
The Doctor: Tell me. Am I a good man?
Danny: Sir!
Rusty: I see into your soul, Doctor. I see hatred.
The Doctor: I'm not a hero.
Dalek: You are a good Dalek.
[ END FLASHBACK ]
The Doctor: Thank you. Thank you so much.
I really didn't know. I wasn't sure. You lose sight sometimes. Thank you! I am not a good man! I am not a bad man. I am not a hero. And I'm definitely not a president. And no, I'm not an officer. Do you know what I am? I am an idiot, with a box and a screwdriver. Just passing through, helping out, learning. I don't need an army. I never have, because I've got them. Always them. Because love, it's not an emotion. Love is a promise. And he will never hurt her. PE, catch! You didn't notice, did you? While you were doing all your silly orders, while you where showing off, the one soldier not obeying.
Missy: No, that's wrong. That's impossible.
Cyber-Danny: The rain will not fall.
Missy: Oh? Why won't it?
Cyber-Danny: The clouds will burn.
Missy: And who'll burn them?
Cyber-Danny: I will burn them.
Missy: How?
Cyber-Danny: I will burn.
Missy: One burning Cyberman is hardly going to save the planet.
Cyber-Danny: Correct. Attention! This is not a good day. This is Earth's darkest hour. And look at you miserable lot. We are the Fallen. But today, we shall rise. The army of the dead will save the land of the living. This is not the order of a general, nor the whim of a lunatic.
Missy: Excuse me?
Cyber-Danny: This is a promise. The promise of a soldier! You will sleep safe tonight.
Clara: Well. The clouds have all gone.
The Doctor: Yes, burned up. Totally burnt. Burnt to nothing. Sorry.
Missy: 10, 0, 11, 0, 0, by 0, 2
The Doctor: What did you say??
Missy: The current coordinates of Gallifrey. It's returned to it's original location. Didn't you ever think to look?
The Doctor: You are lying!
Missy: We can, we can go together, just you and me. Just like the old days.
The Doctor: You'd be clapped in irons.
Missy: If you like.
Clara: Doctor, I'm assuming you'll remember those coordinates?
The Doctor: No. No, don't you dare. I won't let you.
Clara: Old friend, is she? If you have ever let this creature live, everything that happened today, is on you. All of it, on you. And you're not going to let her live again.
The Doctor: Clara, all I'm doing is not letting you kill her. I never said I was letting her live.
Clara: Really?
The Doctor: If that's the only thing that will stop you, yes.
Missy: Seriously. Oh, Doctor. To save her soul? ( chuckles ) But who, my dear, will save yours? Say something nice. ( he sighs ) Please?
The Doctor: You win.
Missy: I know.
Clara: Doctor!
The Doctor: Kate. She's breathing! She's alive! She can't be here.
Clara: She is.
The Doctor: She fell out of a plane. The Cyberman must have caught her.
Clara: Doctor, she's talking about her dad.
The Doctor: Of course. The Earth's darkest hour and mine. Where else would you be?
The Doctor: Thank you.

Clara: Please say it's you.
Danny (O.C.): Clara.
Clara: The Doctor told me about the bracelet, how it can let Missy travel from one world to the other.
Danny (O.C.): This place is dying now.
Clara: Yes, but the bracelet can bring you home.
Danny (O.C.): There's only enough power for one trip.
Clara: Then come on. Hurry up!
Danny (O.C.): Just one trip. One trip, one person.
Clara: Danny!
Danny (O.C.): You need to find his parents. He died a long time ago.
( boy gasps )
Danny (O.C.): I'm sorry, Clara. ( sobbing ) I truly am. I had, I had promises to keep.

The Doctor: Hey.
Clara: Hey.
The Doctor: I got your message.
Clara: Two weeks late.
The Doctor: Not bad.
Clara: Improving.
The Doctor: I see you've got news for me.
Clara: News?
The Doctor: He figured it out then? PE figured out there was a way home.
Clara: Yeah. Yeah, he did.
The Doctor: Oh, good old PE. He'll make a maths teacher yet.
Clara: Listen, Doctor. There's, there's something that I have to tell you and, er, it's not good news so just, just listen, OK?
The Doctor: I know.
Clara: Sorry?
The Doctor: I know exactly what you've got to tell me.
Clara: You do?
The Doctor: You and Danny are together now. That's great. That's how it should be. But the old man and the blue box, that's never going to fit in. So no more flying around. No more lying.
Clara: OK, no, that's not exactly...
The Doctor: It's fine.
Clara: No, it's not fine. It, it really isn't fine.
The Doctor: I've found Gallifrey.
Clara: Wow! Oh, my God,
( low booming )
The Doctor: I entered the coordinates, just like she said. And I found Gallifrey. For once, she wasn't lying.
Clara: So, what are you going to do now?
The Doctor: Go home.
Clara: OK.
The Doctor: Gallifrey can be a good place. I can help make it that.
Clara: What, you?
The Doctor: Shut up!
Clara: You won't just steal a TARDIS and run away?
The Doctor: No, not this time. Never again.
Clara: Never again.
The Doctor: It's a long commute, so, you know, I thought, with you and Danny...
Clara: Yeah. Me and Danny. Me and Danny, we are going to be fine. Don't you worry. You go home. Go home. Go be a king or something.
The Doctor: Yeah, I might do that.
Clara: Or queen, you know. Whatever.
The Doctor: Yeah, queen, that would be good too.
Clara: Yeah. ( she sighs heavily ) Tell you what, seeing as it's goodbye, shall we break a habit?
The Doctor: What? What habit?
Clara: Hug.
The Doctor: Why not. Within reason.
The Doctor: Come on, you're on the clock.
Clara: Fair enough.
Clara: Why don't you like hugging, Doctor?
The Doctor: Never trust a hug. It's just a way to hide your face.
Clara: Yeah.
