'''''{{StoryTitle}}''''' was the seventh episode of ''[[Torchwood | '''''{{StoryTitle}}''''' was the seventh episode of [[Series 4 (Torchwood)|Series 4]] of ''[[Torchwood (TV series)|Torchwood]]''. It was written by [[Jane Espenson]], directed by [[Gwyneth Horder-Payton]] and featured [[John Barrowman]] as [[Jack Harkness]], [[Eve Myles]] as [[Gwen Cooper]], [[Kai Owen]] as [[Rhys Williams]], [[Mekhi Phifer]] as [[Rex Matheson]] and [[Alexa Havins]] as [[Esther Drummond]]. | ||
For the most part, it consisted of a flashback in pre-[[Great Depression|Depression]] era [[New York City]]. It importantly introduced the character of [[Angelo Colasanto]], a lover that [[Jack Harkness]] met while standing in line at [[Ellis Island]]. Colasanto's granddaughter [[Olivia Colasanto|Olivia]] — played by ''[[Star Trek (franchise)|Star Trek]]'' regular [[Nana Visitor]] — also made her debut. [[Rex Matheson]] and [[Esther Drummond]] were resigned to cameo roles, while [[Gwen Cooper]] played an important part in the final acts of the episode. From a continuity standpoint, it was clearly the single episode of ''Miracle Day'' which made the most references to the broader [[DWU]], even giving a shout-out to a ''[[Sarah Jane Adventures]]'' [[the Trickster|character]]. Narratively speaking, it was the only episode in the Miracle Day arc to feature the appearance of an [[Brainspawn|alien]]. | |||
