I’m a little fuzzy about a couple details.

Time appeared to revert to when they opened the rift - they didn’t really say, nor did they account for things that happened because of it - (wether or not the other plague victims still had it or if they ‘got better’) Reese was a notable exception.

What about the people whose life the Bad-Ass from the Rift ate? Are they still dead? If they’re not, it seems like there should be two time resettings. And if not, if people really did see a fifty foot tall Dio album cover mucking about Cardiff, can Gwen please tell her sweet baboo just a little about what she does? Not enough to change much, but enough to end his constant whining. Or would that take away his character’s reason for existing?
Another thing. Jack … Jack overfed it to death? He pulled a Mr. Creosote on it? I’m sorry, but my local Torchwood’s Policies and Procedures manual points out that while throwing sandwiches at a pursuing monstrosity may be a good delay tactic, it is not to be used offensively.
Oh, something else in our P&P manual – any machines or apparatus that are not to be turned on under any circumstances, are not to be left temptingly in the middle of the office in slightly disassembled states. Staff will know of such devices only on a need to know basis which, given the aforementioned status of the devices, there will be no need to know.
Why did Jack ask Gwen – and only Gwen – to drive him to monster central? Wasn’t that kind of dangerous, bringing a non-bad-wolf-protected human to the general vicinity of the life-sucking-monstrosity? Was he getting sick of her brooding? And why couldn’t he drive himself? Was he worried that the SUV woudl get a parking ticket? He wanted someone to carry his body back? Dramatic tension? Was there any rational?
Ok, lastly, why was Jack so pissed at Owen, when a few months/weeks ago it turned out that Jeeves was secretly keeping a proto-Cyber-blowup-doll in the basement? Seems that in comparing the two sins, Owen surely should have gotten off with less then he did. Or was Jeeves getting off of Jack part of his lenient treatment? And given that, isn’t the whole emotional bond between him and his former Cyber-girl a bit watered down? (Another bit from our local P&P manual: when staffing is at a premium, no employee is to be fired for past transgressions during a crisis. Once the crisis is resolved, the matter should be referred to the H&OR (Human and Other Resources) Department.)
Actually, I know the answer to all of the above … a wizard did it.
