At a [[St. Helen's Hospital|hospital]], Dr [[Rupesh Patanjali]] fails to save a man's life. [[Jack Harkness]] and [[Ianto Jones]], whom Dr Patanjali believes are the man's neighbours, ask to see the body alone. Jack uses a [[laser saw]] to open the corpse. He extracts an [[alien]] organ. Dr Patanjali re-enters, sees the alien organ and asks if the men are Torchwood. Jack quickly denies it. Dr Patanjali tells them the bodies of five ethnic males have vanished over the past two months.
