 ** The concept of "Miracle Day" in a nutshell is [[Fridge Horror]]. What's gonna happen when there's no more food -- malnutrition, sans death, for ''everyone'' on the planet? People suffering from something like cancer or a disease, who'll continue suffering but can't die?
 ** A trailer for future episodes notes that if the Miracle stops it still might be [[Fridge Horror]], as  {{spoiler|All bacteria will become super-resistant to antibiotics, since the people who are sick or maimed will continue to live on as incubators for them.}} So if Miracle Day isn't reversed before that happens, the day everybody would become mortal again could also be the beginning of a worldwide  {{spoiler|pandemic}}.

 * It bothered me that the Owen Harper reference was passed by so fast, when one hopes the character's name could get a little more time than that. Then you realize: In the same way the show seems not to care who Owen Harper was, the world doesn't either. This is a place where Torchwood doesn't matter.
-* Jack suggests detaching the head of the blown-up suicide bomber. At first this seems like a complete [[What the Hell Hero]] moment for Jack -- but when you remember that from what we've seen of forced immortality in Torchwood so far (Owen), Jack was probably trying to put the man out of his misery.
