Soon after leaving, G.R. Owen founded a department store in Cardiff and then vanished. By 2009, his disappearance had become Torchwood's oldest unsolved case. Led by Jack, Gwen Cooper and Ianto Jones went undercover in the store as employees to find out more information. Unbeknownst to Gwen and Ianto, Jack's real mission was to locate the alien lifeform that Gareth had stolen from Torchwood and return it to base.
