Shapiro:
So, these are the Torchwood clowns?

Gwen:
Torchwood did more to piece this together than the entire CIA.

Shapiro:
You're that English girl, Cooper...Have I got that right?

Gwen:
No, I'm not English. And I'm not a girl.

Esther:
Gwen, this is Allen Shapiro. Don't. Really, don't.

Gwen:
Well, he's not scaring me. Hello.

Shapiro:
I am sick of her already. Can we deport her? Let's deport her.

Jack:
Hey, hey, hey, leave her alone.

Gwen:
Don't you dare.

Rex:
Don't touch her.

Gwen:
Don't you dare.

Rex:
Sorry, sir. With all due respect, Gwen Cooper's proven herself to be extremely useful. I think it's worth keeping her on our side.

Shapiro:
Did you sleep with her?

Gwen:
[outraged] Pardon me?!

Shapiro:
Because most women that bitter, you've slept with. [to Esther] Did you make that mistake?

Esther:
No. No, sir, I did not.

Shapiro:
Esther Drummond. Rex said you did a good job out in the field.

Esther:
Thank you, sir.

Shapiro:
In my opinion you deserted your post. I'm docking your pay. [to Jack] And what is it with you, Red Baron? You got Snoopy up your ass?

Gwen:
[snorts] That's funny.

Jack:
: While you're wasting time, Mister Shapiro, we've got the names of the people who are responsible for causing the Miracle. I suggest we get to work.

Shapiro:
Torchwood is going to work for the CIA?

Jack:
I think the CIA can work for Torchwood, if you're lucky.

Shapiro:
We've got a plane ready and waiting twenty minutes away. The sooner we pool our resources, the sooner we can end this thing. All right, let's go. Everybody out.

Jack:
What about him (Angelo)? We've got a very sick man here.

Shapiro:
Didn't you read the news? Nobody dies. Now, there's a nurse around here somewhere. You got two minutes. Don't leave them alone. [leaves]

Gwen:
Jack...did we just join the CIA?

Jack:
I think we did.
