Torchwood: Miracle Day - Episode 8

Once again no word count because a lot has been shocking this episode. Also, it's freaking Torchwood! How in the world can you keep it betwee 450 and 600 words?!

I finished watching the eighth episode of Torchwood: Miracle Day just a few minutes ago. Talk about some things that made me gasp in shock or in surprise. Also, there were a couple of things that made me start to get tears in my eyes. But first, I think that I am going to start with the things that made me gasp.

First, after that big (as in fat because I don't think it's nice to say fat) guy took Rex (the black guy) to another room, Rex was getting hit and the guy put a gun to Rex's head. I also gasped when the guy set off a bomb in the truck while two women were in there with him. So, they are all dead. Well, actually, they are Category Ones. I also gasped when Oswald Danes hit Jilly (the redheaded lady). I thought that one of them was going to become a Category One, not that I don't mind. But anyway! Jilly had an "intern" (who was actually a CIA agent following her and Danes). Well, let's start with The Family.

Back in the 1920s, when Jack was conscious after getting killed many times, he saw three men make a deal. One was tall, skinny, and black; the second was a big, short, white guy; the third was a tall, skinny, white guy. Well, in the present day, the guy that made an appearance in the fifth episode showed up again. He told Jilly that she was being followed by a CIA agent. Well, the "intern" was in the elevator waiting to go down. The guy took out a gun and shot the agent twice. He is part of The Family. He made a call and told the person on the other end that he had Jilly and that she joined them. Well, the person he was talking to happened to be a CIA agent who was talking to Esther (the blonde lady) about what was going on. So, the lady is part of The Family. Oh! And also, towards the beginning, when the guy was taking Rex to another room and Gwen was going after him and the black woman had a gun pointed at her, Jack kept on getting between Gwen and the gun. I gasped because, well, jack can die. You would think he wouldn't get in the way of a gun while he's mortal. And now the parts that made me get tears in my eyes.

Ianto was mentioned again! Except it was over Shag's, basically, death bed. Yeah. Talk about making me mad but I was still happy that Ianto was mentioned. This is how Jack's one-sided conversation went: "Did you see him? Did you see Ianto? You would've liked him. Or maybe not. You'd've been jealous." As soon as Jack said, "Did you see him?" I knew that Jack was only talking about one man. I knew immediately he was talking about Ianto. As soon as I heard Jack ask that question, I started getting tears in my eyes and I couldn't help but cry out during his conversation. And then, unfortunately, after the conversation about Ianto, Jack had to go and freaking give a quick kiss to Shag. As soon as I saw Jack start to bend over the guy, I was like, "Don't do it, Jack. Are you seriously going to kiss a guy after talking about Ianto?" But, jack just had to go and disobey my order and kiss the guy. I obviously turned away. I wanted to shake some sense into him.

Lastly... Jack was shot! He was getting away with the help of Rex and Esther (Gwen was forcibly put on a plane to go back to the United Kingdom) and he was shot. And obviously I gasped because I wasn't expecting him to get shot! I ended up with a bit of tears in my eyes bcause I kept thinking, "He can't die! He's going to die!" I thought I was seeing him die. And I will admit that part of me was like, "I hope he dies so that he can be with Ianto." And then when they would show Jack lying in the backseat of a truck while Esther is driving, you could see Jack slowly losing consciousness because, obviously, his eyes are slowly closing. When they would show Jack or Esther, part of me was expecting to see gasp himself back to full-life, the way he always does. And poor Esther is begging him to say something. She also says that she doesn't know what to do or where to go.
