Torchwood 2x07: "Dead Man Walking"

[windemere]

Firstly, good use of title.



Alright, I admit I wasn't overly concerned last week. Though I freaked a bit just before I sat down to watch this episode. Niggling doubt and all that.

There were so many ways this could have gone...wrong. And none of them happened. My faith is restored.

Although, what I said last week still stands, if this had actually been the end than Torchwood would have deserved the award for best kept secret. And let's face it, there isn't a great record with keeping secrets. ::cough:: Doctor Who ::cough::

I love Jack. (You may also note I did not start this week's post off with 'I love Ianto')

I also love Tosh. And she got hers this week. Finally.

And Burn is kind of awesome as an actor. Acting possessed isn't easy, you know.

I knew the other glove was going to show up at some point. And because it's the glove it was bound to bite them all in the ass...I was just surprised it happened to Martha.

But, of course, it's not like that was going to be permanent. Can you imagine Jack trying to explain that? Actually...I'd like to see him try.

I am still iffy on how this is all going to work out, as having 2 members of a 5 (+1) member team being freaks sounds like a bit much ratio-wise. I'm sure they'll figure something out; but meanwhile, breaking into heat-censored security systems will pass the time. Hee.

I still love Ianto, just not for anything particular this episode.

*random incoherent squee*

Someone had better be writing Tosh/Owen smut. I don't care that they actually said (several times) that Owen can't have sex. THERE MUST BE FIC.

I think I am going to go look at the moon (or lack thereof).

Oh, that was tonight, wasn't it?

Someone will. We're fanfic writers. Someone always will.

What about Ianto's little scream/laugh of joy when Martha grabs him at the end or his sarcastic "Here we go again" when Owen isn't dead? Not that you need a reason to love Ianto, but those where a few I found this episode.

You are right, of course, but those are the kind of things I've come to expect from Ianto this season. But usually there is something sudden and unexpected that I heart.
