213 : Exit Wounds

This was posted over at Digital Spy, and is supposedly from the IMDB boards....

Captain John has set bombs all around Cardiff. They explode, but he and Captain Jack are sucked up into a Riftstorm, and deposited in Cardiff, 2000 years in the past. The rest of the team discover that Captain John's bombs have damaged Cardiff's nuclear facilities.

John explains to Jack that he jumped into the Rift because he's under the control of Gray, who has basically turned him into a walking bomb via a wriststrap fused to his skin. At that moment, Gray appears through the Rift. Jack hugs his brother.. who then stabs him, and makes John cuff Jack's wrists and ankles, dig his grave, and bury him. (Just before he starts to fill it in, John throws a ring down into the hole.) Gray's insane, having been tortured by hellish creatures for years, and hates Jack - both for being immortal, and for losing him all those years ago.

He sets John's wriststrap for one trip, and only one... John goes to Cardiff.

Gwen finds him in the Hub, and wants to know where Jack is, and what's all this about a brother, etc... Gray then turns up accompanied by weevils (who only Owen can control as it seems he's still King o' the Weevils).

Not sure of exact order at this point, but Ianto saves John from weevils, then Grey finds John, much to his disappointment (he didn't expect John to want to do the right thing)... then he shoots Tosh. Owen is busy away somewhere trying to stop the nuclear whatsits from going into meltdown.

After shooting Tosh, Gray goes all psycho killer and wants to sit and talk to her as she dies... but he hears noises in the Hub and goes to investigate. Tosh lies dying, but continues what she was doing before she was shot - helping Owen via an intercom type thing. He doesn't know she's dying, but she knows he's going to be killed by the nuclear radiation inside the chamber he's stuck inside. They die together, apart.

Gray goes to investigate the banging he can hear. It's coming from the morgue. He opens a drawer and... it's Jack. John's ring *is* a bleepy thing. [Flashback] It's tracked down by two women from TW circa 1900 - Jack's been down there a long time. They dig him out, and he asks to be put in the morgue so he doesn't meet himself etc. [/Flashback] Jack tries to walk away, Gray starts telling him all about how he'll never forgive him etc. So, er, Jack knocks him out with a stinky hanky.

He goes into the Hub, Gwen and Ianto get hugs and stuff - this is all happening while Tosh and Owen are dying - apparently just as Owen dies, Jack runs in on Tosh, and she dies in his arms. Gwen gets upset.

Jack and John have a goodbye scene - John suggests he kill Gray, but Jack decides to put him on ice too I think - they have a snog, and then John decides to go backpacking round Europe, or something.

Finally - the team are clearing out Tosh and Owen's bit of the office. Packing up their stuff, logging off their PCs - Tosh's PC responds to this by popping up a video!Tosh. She says she realises she must be dead, and that she hopes it wasn't a trivial death. She loves them all, says thank you to Jack, tells Owen he didn't ever realise (but he's not there! argh! *gnashes teeth, wails* )

Final scene is Jack, Gwen and Ianto sitting on the docks.
