Theory:Torchwood television discontinuity and plot holes/Escape to LA

* Jack sees Gwen tied up but in no immediate danger. And obviously there as bait in a trap. So why does he instantly go to rescue her, leaving his back exposed? He was an experienced Time Agent even before he became immortal, he should not make such an error.

* Jack claims to have lived thousands of years and not to remember all of the people he did deals with. Is this right? Apart from the time he spent buried underground, he seems to have begun as an imortal in the late 19th century. As a Time Agent he presumably would have aged normally.

You are exploring the Discontinuity Index, a place where any details or rumours about unreleased stories are forbidden.
Please discuss only those whole stories which have already been released, and obey our spoiler policy.

This page is for discussing the ways in which Escape to LA doesn't fit well with other DWU narratives. You can also talk about the plot holes that render its own, internal narrative confusing.

Remember, this is a forum, so civil discussion is encouraged. However, please do not sign your posts. Also, keep all posts about the same continuity error under the same bullet point. You can add a new point by typing:

* This is point one.
::This is a counter-argument to point one.
:::This is a counter-argument to the counter-argument above
* This is point two.
::Explanation of point two.
::Further discussion and query of point two.

... and so on. 

• After Rex shot the man, Gwen and Jack seemed annoyed that the man did not get a chance to tell them who he was working for, specifically mentioning him being shot in the throat. Surely the man could write about who he worked for?

Well, they would have to drag him around, wait for him to recover, and then try to get him to write it down... but yeah, I can't imagine what's stopping them from doing all of that.
