Martha is welcomed warmly by Torchwood. She catches up with Jack regarding the events of [[Doctor Who (TV)/NS/Recap/S3 E13 Last of the Time Lords|the lost year]] and tells him that her family is gradually recovering from the trauma. She also befriends Gwen, asks Ianto what Jack is like in bed ("innovative... bordering on the avant-garde"), ignores Tosh, and flirts with Owen. Jack reveals that he's the one who got Martha her new job. Martha just sort of [[Doctor Who (TV)/NS/Recap/S4 E4 The Sontaran Stratagem|assumed]] that [[Doctor Who (TV)|the Doctor]] had been the one who'd done her that favor. Jack and Martha [[Doctor Who (TV)/NS/Recap/S3 E12 The Sound of Drums|once again share a moment]] about the Doctor apparently being oblivious to them.
