I love how in the end she greets him instead of saying goodbye because she knows the Doctor doesn't like endings.

"Fear me, I've killed hundreds of Time Lords"
"Fear me, I've killed all of them"
says it all really

[BoloBouncer]

She spent over 1, 000 years waiting to say hello to him.

[hunterkiller]

"Fear me, I killed all of them." I love that line.

[HeatherParkinJustMeAtAll]

"Alive isn't sad"
"It is when it's over."

[Phoenix-bibn]

I love Matt's acting in this. He goes from victorious and giving House a beating and then totally emotional. His reactions to Idris are perfect

[JaayCeez]

In 3:30 I never knew the Tardis said "I Love You" to the doctor she whispered it so low that I never really heard it  

[Jamestopboy]

And thus, how to make a scene between A NORMALLY SILENT OBJECT and a Timelord, into a sad one.

[GorTesK]

The Tardis, his first love. The girl, that he snatched away. Stole her and ran off into adventure and spent his whole life with her.
It's a magical love story, that transcends time and space.
And in the end he even gets to marry her, or at least a part of her, when he marries River Song, who is the Tardis's child.

[MissRedHeadedGeek]

"I don't understand, there isn't a forest in here." Foreshadowing at it's finest.

[BriEva]

This explains why when Rose looked into the matrix everything she saw revolved around the doctor. The TARDIS loves the Doctor and that love engrained itself into Rose becoming the Bad Wolf and eventually The Moment. Which is why the Moment hears everything about the doctor too.

[renae]

"please...I don't want you to..." in this, he is so young. just a young creature whose hearts are aching. 
but then in an *instant*, when he is sniffling, oh what a very old man he is. so very, very old in that shot. must pick yourself up and pretend to walk forward again.

thank you Matt Smith, for being the very first and so far the only to get me to believe how simultaneously young and old the Doctor is. He's hundreds of years old in this scene - and I believe it. 

The Doctor and his forever companion.

[jdunn]

Who would have ever imagined that a "hello" could be infinitely more heartbreaking than a "goodbye"?

[amcdo]

The Tardis exists throughout all of time and space so when she says "This is when we talked" she's not just referring to present Doctor... she's talking about all of them. A lot of comments are saying she's known the doctor for X amount of years but the Tardis/Idris knows every Doctor that's been, and every Doctor that's to come and it's just sadder when you think about it like that.

[TheZilte]

The biggest reason I find this so heart-breaking is that The Doctor knows how alone he is and always will be. Everyone always eventually dies, a part from the Tardis. Her being alive and speaking meant that he could have a companion forever with him and because she became someone who could never speak to him again it just broke his heart.

[NottherealLucifer]

"I'll always be here but this is when we talked..." always hits me so hard. For the Tardis to know this is the only time she gets to speak with the Doctor and for her to cherish it this much, it just hurts.

[karlohliger]

If you STILL think Matt Smith is a bad actor, or a bad Doctor, then give this scene a re-watch. No, give this episode a re-watch, because Neil Gaiman poured his heart and soul into this script. A truly amazing episode, the best of Series 6 for sure.

[trikstari]

For me, what Matt Smith does with his jaw after she leaves him is what gets me the most.

He just has to swallow this loss. He has no choice. He just has to swallow it, and live with this pain, and this loss, the rest of his life. I don't know why but what he does with his jaw is so incredibly emotive to me.

[daleksvscybermen]

''See house, that's your problem: Size of a planet but inside you are JUST... SO... SMALL'' 

Matt's delivery of that line was... perfect.

[StringerCourier]

Here I am, a 63-year-old retired man who watches this scene over and over and never fails to wipe away a tear and get all sniffly, like The Doctor. Superb, and what makes the show so compelling. Now onto the video where Capaldi leans over to River Song and says, "Hello, Sweetie."
