Doctor Who Universe

Jack Harkness landed in Ellis Island, but had his (forged) visa stolen by Angelo Colasanto. Angelo was imprisoned, but Jack faked him some papers to let him out. Jack and Angelo eventually found a room to share in New York City. They thwarted a plot from the Trickster's Brigade to use an alien parasite to harm future US President Roosevelt's mind and allow the Third Reich to win World War II. Jack disintegrated the creature, but was caught by the police. Jack was shot and Angelo got arrested, assuming Jack dead. (TW: Immortal Sins)
