Jack: We're traveling circus folk.
Rex: Yeah, and he's the clown.
Gwen: I'm the bearded woman but I've shaved.
Jack: Yeah, you missed a bit.

Landlord: By the way, if you get hungry, there's a cafe on the corner that does a guava jalapeno cheese tart that's just fabulous. Laters.
Rex: Fabulous? What is it with you? You make everybody around you gay?
Jack: That's the plan.

Gwen: No, you know what Torchwood's like. It's terrible. I mean, we're living in this... shed thing. And there's no electricity, there's no water, it's dark and cold and damp.

Jack: George Eliot wrote this chapter in Middlemarch. She said that if you take a piece of metal with random scratches written all over and hold a flame up to the metal, the scratches look like they're forming patterns, circling around the light. And that's Oswald. He's blazing away, and patterns are starting to revolve around him and all we have to do is keep watching.

Jilly Kitzinger: Listen, clear the schedule. It is Oswald 24-7 from here on out. Dr. Juarez!
Dr. Vera Juarez: This is disgusting.
Jilly Kitzinger: I know!

Gwen: Who the hell are you?
The Gentleman: Names aren't important right now.
Gwen: Oh, great, he's cryptic.

The Gentleman: It's got to be said Miracle Day has hardly been advantageous for those in my line of work-- the day the killing stopped. But I can't tell you, Jack, how wonderful it is, how truly wonderful it is to meet somebody who's mortal. It's my holy grail.
Gwen: If he's the only one that can die, then it's in your interest to keep him alive.
The Gentleman: That's exactly what I'm doing. Haven't you noticed the absence of killing?

Gwen: He was just about to tell us.
Rex: Thanks? Anybody? Thanks?
Gwen: And you shot him in the throat!
Rex: Well, dead is dead.

Jack: Thanks again for saving my ass yesterday.
Rex: I was saving her ass. You were just gravy.

Torchwood: Miracle Day: Escape to L.A.

The fourth episode of Torchwood is here and it brought us deeper into the story. As always, when you haven't watched the episode yet and don't want to know what happens next, please stop reading now.

Summary:
Esther visits her sister but she isn't allowed to get into the house to see her nieces and so she calls the authorities who should check on them. Torchwood moves to L.A. to break into PhiCorp but they don't know that someone is following them because of Esther. Meanwhile the situation in the hospitals gets worse and people are just left there and the "Dead is Dead" campaign isn't very helpful. Oswald gets back into the media when he speaks to the people in these hospitals and promises them everything will be better and he will care for them. The killer catches up with Jack and Gwen when they steal a server from PhiCorp and wants to know from Jack who is behind all this. Rex can save them from being shot. They find out about the camps PhiCorp has established for all the people who should be dead and they can't they can't prevent that Gwen's father is brought there.

So now we know definitely that the miracle has something to do with Jack's past because why should this killer ask Jack who is behind everything when it's not connected to him in some way. I sometimes felt a bit sorry for Esther because of her sister and everything but it was her fault they were caught in this trap. It was so cute to see Jack an Gwen playing this couple and Gwen looked really hot in her outfit when she went into PhiCorp. I still love Eve Myles tooth gap. She just looks gorgeous when she smiles.
So, I really liked this episode and I think it had a nice mixture between fast paced scenes and scenes were we get to know the characters a bit better. I'm warming up with Rex and Esther and think they are a nice addition to the Torchwood team. It will be great to see Rhys and Gwen reunited again.
