[last lines]
River Song : It's the TARDIS translation matrix. It takes a while to kick in with the written word. You have to concentrate.
[Amy looks at the etching on the crib]
Amy Pond : [levels the gun at River again] I still can't read it.
[Rory grasps Amy's hands and gently takes the gun from her]
River Song : It's because it's Gallifreyan and doesn't translate.
River Song : [picks up the prayer leaf and places it in Amy's right hand] But this will. It's your daughter's name in the language of the Forest.
Amy Pond : I know my daughter's name!
River Song : Except, they don't have a word for "pond," 'cause the only water in the Forest is the river. The Doctor *will* find your daughter, and he will care for her, whatever it takes, and I know that.
[as Amy looks at the back of the prayer leaf, its stitched lettering changes to "River". Amy turns it over and the front side has already translated to "Song"]
River Song : It's me. I'm Melody. I'm your daughter.

[first lines]
["Demon's Run"]
Amy Pond : [to her baby] I wish I could tell you that you'll be loved, that you'll be safe, and cared for, and protected, but this isn't the time for lies. What you are going to be, Melody, is very, very brave.
Madame Kovarian : Two minutes.
Amy Pond : But not as brave as they all have to be, because there's somebody coming. I don't know where he is, or what he's doing, but trust me: he's on his way.
["Twenty Thousand Light Years Away"]
Amy Pond : [continuing, V.O] There's a man who's never going to let us down, and not even an army can get in the way. He's the last of his kind. He looks young, but he's lived for hundreds and hundreds of years. And wherever they take you, Melody, however scared you are, I promise you, you will never be alone, because this man is your father. He has a name, but the people of our world know him better... as The Last Centurion.
Rory : [dressed in Roman Centurion garb] I have a message and a question. A message from the Doctor, and a question from me: *Where* *is* *my* *wife*?
[the Cybermen stare at him, saying nothing]
Rory : [walking into the room] Oh, don't give me those blank looks. The Twelfth Cyber Legion monitors this entire quadrant. You hear everything. So you tell me what I need to know. You tell me now, and I'll be on my way.
[Rory stops in front of an observation window]
Cyber Leader : What is the Doctor's message?
[outside, the fleet begins exploding, startling the Cybermen]
Rory : [unfazed] Would you like me to repeat the question?
-
Rory : My daughter. What do you think?
The Doctor : Hello. Hello... uh... baby.
Amy Pond : Melody.
The Doctor : Melody? Hello Melody Pond.
Rory : Melody Williams.
Amy Pond : ...is a geography teacher. Melody Pond is a super hero.
-
The Doctor : [talking to Amy's newborn daughter] It's okay. She's still all yours. And really, you should call her Mummy, not Big Milk Thing.
Amy Pond : Okay, what are you doing?
The Doctor : I speak Baby.
Amy Pond : No, you don't.
The Doctor : I speak everything. Don't I, Melody Pond?
[the infant babbles, the Doctor adjusts his bow tie]
The Doctor : No, it's not. It's cool.
-
Amy Pond : A crying Roman with a baby - definitely cool.
-
Amy Pond : [Baby Melody is crying] She doesn't like the TARDIS noise. I asked him to turn something off but it was all "I don't want to punch a hole in the space-time continuum".
-
Lorna Bucket : I brought you something. Your child's name in the language of my people. It's a prayer leaf and we believe if you keep this with you, your child will always come home to you.
Amy Pond : Can I borrow your gun?
Lorna Bucket : Why?
Amy Pond : I've got a feeling you're going to keep talking!
