At the [[Cardiff]] [[Millennium Centre]], [[Jack Harkness]] and [[Gwen Cooper]] - who along with [[Ianto Jones]] had agreed to try things outside their comfort zones - attend [[Giacomo Puccini|Puccini]]'s [[La Rondine]]. Halfway through the performance Ianto contacted the pair and recalled them to the [[The Hub]].

The individual, an [[Italy|Italian]] man, was placed in the cells by Ianto. Jack immediately identified the man as [[Leonardo da Vinci]] and it became apparent to the group that the pair had encountered each other previously. Jack stated that they needed to return Leonardo to his own [[15th century|time]] as they couldn't risk him being influenced by the future. | |||
