Tenth Doctor : But don't worry, I started a very long time ago!
[Numerous TARDISes approach Gallifrey]
First Doctor : Calling the War Council of Gallifrey, this is the Doctor.
Eleventh Doctor : You might say, I've been doing this all my lives.
Second Doctor : Good luck!
Third Doctor : Stand by.
First Doctor : Ready.
Fourth Doctor : Commencing calculations.
Fifth Doctor : Soon be there.
Seventh Doctor : Across the boundaries that divide one universe from another.
Sixth Doctor : Got to lock on to his coordinates.
Ninth Doctor : And for my next trick...

Eleventh Doctor : [to himself] I could be a curator. I'd be great at curating, I'd be "The Great Curator" ha-ha. I could retire and do that. I could retire and be the curator of this place.
The Curator : [behind him] You know I really think you might.
[the Doctor turns and studies the Curator curiously]
Eleventh Doctor : I never forget a face.
The Curator : I know you don't. And in years to come you might find yourself revisiting a few... but just the old favorites, eh?
[the Eleventh Doctor winks at him]

[the Curator and the 11th Doctor look at a painting]
The Curator : You were curious about this painting, I think. I acquired it in remarkable circumstances. What do you make of the title?
Eleventh Doctor : Well, which title? There's two: "No More" or "Gallifrey Falls".
The Curator : No. You see, that's where everybody's wrong. It's all ONE title: "Gallifrey Falls No More". Now... what would you think that means, eh?
Eleventh Doctor : ...That Gallifrey didn't fall. It worked! It's still out there!
The Curator : I'm only a humble curator. I'm sure I wouldn't know.
[moves off]
Eleventh Doctor : Then where is it?
The Curator : [comes back] Where is it indeed?
Eleventh Doctor : Yes!
The Curator : Lost! Shhh!... Perhaps. Things do get lost, you know. And now you must excuse me. Ohhh... you have a lot to do.
Eleventh Doctor : Do I? Is that what I'm supposed to do now, go looking for Gallifrey?
The Curator : Well, that's entirely up to you. Your choice, eh? I can only tell you what I would do. If I were you...
[laughs]
The Curator : "If I were you..." Perhaps I was you, of course. Or, perhaps you are ME.
[both laugh, and the Curator shakes the Doctor's hand]
The Curator : Congratulations.
Eleventh Doctor : Thank you very much.
The Curator : Or, perhaps, it doesn't matter, either way. Who knows? WHO knows?
