[[Ianto Jones|Ianto]] is walking the streets of [[Cardiff]] in the early evening, when [[Rupert Howarth]], his old mentor from [[Torchwood One]], whom he believed to be dead, confronts him. Ianto takes him back to [[Torchwood Three|The Hub]] where he is questioned by [[Jack Harkness|Jack]]. | [[Ianto Jones|Ianto]] is walking the streets of [[Cardiff]] in the early evening, when [[Rupert Howarth]], his old mentor from [[Torchwood One]], whom he believed to be dead, confronts him.

Rupert was the head of Torchwood One's [[Bio-Medical Research Division]]. He was on the verge of a massive breakthrough in [[Immunity-Boosting Drugs]] which would have ended all viral diseases. However, | Rupert was the head of Torchwood One's [[Bio-Medical Research Division]]. He was on the verge of a massive breakthrough in [[Immunity-Boosting Drugs]] which would have ended all viral diseases. However, pharmaceutical companies found out and at first tried to bribe, then kill him so they could retain their control over third world natural resources. He faked his own death by burning down his lab and went into hiding. | ||
At the end of Rupert's story, [[Toshiko Sato|Tosh]] picks up a [[police]] report about ''something'' running from a burning warehouse, leaving behind a neat pile of dead bodies. Jack, [[Gwen Cooper|Gwen]] and [[Owen Harper|Owen]] go to investigate the warehouse. Inside: the bodies of [[homeless]] people. Gwen believes that the fire and the fact Rupert had been sleeping rough was too much of a coincidence for the warehouse not to be a targeted attack. | At the end of Rupert's story, [[Toshiko Sato|Tosh]] picks up a [[police]] report about ''something'' running from a burning warehouse, leaving behind a neat pile of dead bodies.

Whilst Rupert tells his story, the Chimera breaks into the Hub. The alarms go off. Rupert admits before he disappeared, he began a program to find drugs to suppress the alien DNA in the Chimera. He tracked down Ianto and Torchwood Three to access the [[Torchwood Mainframe]] to retrieve the recipe for the serum. | Whilst Rupert tells his story, the Chimera breaks into the Hub.

Ianto is disappointed that Rupert, whom he admired, lied to him. He goes to look for the creature on his own. When he finds it, it appears as a metal man and begins to strangle him. | Ianto is disappointed that Rupert, whom he admired, lied to him. He goes to look for the creature on his own.
