I went into this thinking that this might be the end (I was mislead by the trailer.) But it this was to be the last episode of Torchwood, it would be by far the best way to end it.
Torchwood have just got out of the building destroyed by the bombs. There are wounds, most noticeably to Tosh Sato, who has been given painkillers by Owen. At the beginning the Rift activity to be dealt with easily (for example, Owen gives the Hoix cigarettes to eat, Ianto and Toshiko shoot the hooded figures and Gwen sedates the Weevils easily). But when the bombs go off and Jack is taken through the Rift, there appears to be a feeling of panic, and Torchwood appear to be taken back to how they were at the beginning of the series. However, Gwen seems to take the position of leader to Torchwood, which she took at the beginning of the series (even though Owen is meant to be second in command, Gwen has the credentials to do so.). They set about putting the city back together and suddenly you find yourself on the edge of your seat. The computers running the nuclear power station have crashed and meltdown is imminent. Gwen finds John in the Hub, but he reveals everything that he has found out and tells her Jack is buried under the city (John was under the control of Gray, and was going around with a walking bomb on his wrist). However, Gray has also come through the Rift and releases the Weevils to the streets, meaning Ianto and Tosh can't stop the meltdown but Owen can as he is King of the Weevils. This is when Gwen and John are surrounded by Weevils. Ianto and Tosh enter and everything seems to pick up from there...and then there was the gunshot, and Tosh left to die, Gwen, Ianto and John getting trapped in the vaults and Owen in trouble at the Nuclear Power Station. Then there was the return of Jack from the morgue. Gray was chloroformed, and then again things seemed to pick up, as they always do, Jack releasing John, Gwen and Ianto, and then I thought, it's alright, Jack will save Toshiko and go and help Owen. But by then it's too late....
I loved this episode, it goes down as one of my top 10-which are in no particular order: Countrycide, everything changes, kiss kiss bang bang, fragments, from out of the rain, something borrowed, day one, they keep killing Susie, sleeper and exit wounds. If you haven't seen it, I do recommend you see it quickly-search for it on YouTube!! It's an amazing episode, and it will make you cry and be on tenterhooks for the whole 50 minutes.
