Gwen watched Owen work on the alien corpse with wide-eyed fascination. 'How do you know if they're boy aliens or girl aliens?'

Owen sighed. 'I'm a doctor. That's how.'

'Yeah, but, I mean, they can't all have, you know... obvious bits.'

'Then I look for the not obvious bits. Pouches, egg sacks, glands...'

'Male seahorses carry their eggs,' Ianto added, giving a smug little grin.

'I just know, alright!' Owen retorted, slamming down his scalpel.

'Jack!' Gwen called out. 'How do you tell male aliens from female aliens?'

He shrugged. 'I buy them a drink and worry about it later.'
