Picking up an hour off from [[Torchwood/Recap/S2
Jack decides that ''this'' glove is one he ''can'' use, although they don't know anything about its effects yet. [[What Could Possibly Go Wrong?]] Owen is ripped back to his own body with a scream. After Owen bitches about being dead, Jack wants everyone to say their goodbyes... but only Tosh can summon up something to say: that she loves him.

She returns to UNIT, and Owen decides to remain with Torchwood for as long as he possibly can -- to make up for the twelve lives lost for the actions of him and Jack.
