sgteam14283massive spoilers for the episode
IANTO JONES FTFW (for the fucking win)!
Another good episode; it kept you on the edge of your seat wondering what the hell was going to happen next. Although I have an idea as to what the aliens want; I think that that they want to kill everyone on earth and are using our own technology to do it for them.
I have to feel really sorry for Jack, he can’t seem to catch a break in this episode; first he was blown up, re-grown, buried alive in cement and then thrown off of the edge of a quarry. Wonder what his mental state is after each time he dies...he must go through hell coming back. The thought also crossed my mind that after being buried alive again his love for small spaces wouldn’t increase at all.
And the episode also answered the question as to how Jack comes back if he gets blown up...although that was kind of squicky.
Also another thought crossed my mind at the beginning of the episode; where the hell happened to Myfawny? I hope that she/he wasn’t in the Hub when it happened...’cause that would suck if she/he got killed.
PC Andy was FUCKING AWESOME! He gave one of the best lines of the episode, ‘She shot your tires, what kind of terrorist shoots your tires?’
Ianto had the best line of course; (in response to his sisters question, ‘what kind of civil servants are you?’) ‘Unappreciated ones.’
Truth!
And the awesome!Temp solidified that, she even said so when talking with Gwen and Rhys. I’m starting to like her, although I’m waiting for her to get in trouble for hacking (ok well not “hacking” hacking, but still...) into restricted files. Although I can see that they’re setting it up so that the other PA is going to take the fall for it (maybe). They’re also setting it up so that she might join them...it’s still a toss up (although Gwen did make an offer).
There’s no love for Frobisher or SpecialOps!Bitch, in fact I hope that they die horrible deaths when the aliens come. At first I thought that both of them were aliens and were the first wave to get everything ready for the rest but now I think that ThamesHouse!Guy is one of them. Him and SpecialOps!Bitch.
Question: If Frobisher is part of the Home Office then why on God’s Fucking Green Earth would he want to kill Jack!? Wouldn’t he know that Torchwood could help with all of this? Seriously...without Jack (or the Doctor but since this is TW it’s Jack) the Earth is fucked.
Speaking of Jack, loved the cock shot as well as the shot of Jack when he’s naked as a jaybird. Gwen’s expression was amusing but Ianto’s made me laugh out fucking loud...the man looked like he was going to jump Jack right there and then. Plus it’s nice to know that he’s not ashamed of hiding his God given talent and can still pull off that cocky swagger moment after he’s come back from the dead.
Plus it’s nice to know that the supporting men of Torchwood still suffer from Dispantia*.
Although those scenes will get edited for the BBCA.
One thing had me puzzled though, what the hell does Jack know? Before SpecialOps!Bitch encased Jack in cement she said that she wasn’t going to tell him anything because he wouldn’t stay dead but when Frobisher found out that Jack was alive and escaped he was like ‘well we’re all fucked if he tells them what he knows.’
I’m sure that it’ll be answered in the start of the next episode though.
*Dispantia is a condition where men in the Torchwood/Docto Who 'verse suffer from a forget-fullness to wear pants while at home/at night. There is no know treatment. (kudos to theoriginalspy for coming up with the term)
no spoilers for future episodes in the comments please! Thank you!
