Notes: There's not much they disagree on, but this is a bone of contention.

'No.'

'But, Jack,' Ianto pleaded.

'No means no, Ianto. I don't know how I can be any clearer on this.'

Jack's clarity wasn't in question. It was a matter of trying to convince him otherwise.

'She's already put two and two together. The rift takes people. That's a fact. Why can't they all know about Flat Holm?'

'They just can't,' Jack replied, and Ianto could see how much it hurt Jack just to talk about it.

'They could help.'

'Ianto, I know you mean well, but we can't make this better. Gwen needs to move on. Make sure she does.'
