| Eleven: | We have ten minutes; get dressed. |
|---|---|
| River: | Oh, that's so close to the perfect sentence |
| The Doctor: | What's this? Oh, it's a timey-wimey distress beacon. Who built this? |
|---|---|
| River: | I'm in charge of the TARDIS. I understand the physics. |
| The Doctor: | But that's all you've got is a distress beacon? |
| River: | I've been sending out a message. A distress call. Outside the bubble of our time. The universe is still turning and I've sent a message everywhere. To the future and the past, the beginning and the end of everything. "The Doctor is dying. Please, please help." |
| The Doctor: | River! River! This is ridiculous! That would mean nothing to anyone. It's insane. Worse, it's stupid! You embarrass me. |
| Amy: | We barricaded the door. We've got a few minutes. Just tell him. Just tell him, River! |
| River: | Those reports of the sun spots and the solar flares. They're wrong. They're aren't any. It's not the sun. It's you. The sky is full of a million million voices, saying, "Yes of course. We'll help." You've touched so many lives, saved so many people. Did you think when you're time came you'd really have to do more than just ask? You've decided that the universe is better of without you. But the universe doesn't agree. |
| The Doctor: | River, no one can help me. A fixed point has been altered. Time is disintegrating. |
| River: | I can't let you die— |
| The Doctor: | But I have to die! |
| River: | Shut up! I can't let you without knowing you are loved. By so many and so much. And by no one more than me. |
| The Doctor: | River, you and I, we know what this means. We are ground zero of an explosion that will engulf all reality. Billions and billions will suffer and die. |
| River: | I'll suffer if I have to kill you. |
| The Doctor: | More than everything living thing in the universe?! |
| River: | Yes. |

I liked the way this prayer leaf from Lorna tied in with the whole River-Pond/Melody-Song bit.
I called this one quite a while back. I definitely enjoyed this episode a lot, and though I do like River, I think they could have made this moment a bit better. I feel like Amy and Rory act relatively the same around her, you know?
Badass Rory the Roman is badass.
