Why this must be read:

"I can never remember," Jack said finally, his eyebrows drawn, still looking somewhere over the Doctor's right shoulder. "There's just... vague images. Then I wake up in a cold sweat and there's nothing. But it feels like... whatever they did to my head--" He finally met the Doctor's eyes. "Two goddamn years, Doctor."

He stayed quiet.

"And you still trust me," Jack said. "I wonder why."

"I trust what I know."

"You don't know much."

"Neither do you," the Doctor pointed out. "I'd say we're on equal footing."
