''to be added''
Dr Godalming is on a conference call with Heights and a minister and debriefs them. She believes that Jack has wiped out Torchwood and says that the next stage of the plan is [[inoculation]]. She sets up the [[Emergency Response Centre]] at [[Cardiff Castle]] and does an interview with Martin, telling the audience to support [[British government|the government]] and that a vaccine is forthcoming.
 
Jack revives in Heights' custody and Gwen hallucinates that she is with Rhys before he calls her. She tells him that she is at Stage 1 and should keep away. Jack is tied down next to Andy and has a [[blood]] sample taken by [[Larsen (Outbreak)|Dr Larsen]]. Outside the castle, Ianto meets Luke and heads into the [[Marquess of Bute]]'s secret passage inside whilst Gwen enters Stage 2. Dr Godalming announces the successful completion of a [[vaccine]] which will be given only to those who bring the infected to the Emergency Response Centre. Luke tells Ianto that she is his wife and Dr Larsen confronts her about the vaccine, [[Provictus]].
 
[[Megwyn Davies]] takes her mother, [[Bronwen (Outbreak)|Bronwen]], to the castle and is injected with Provictus. Ianto and Luke get into the castle and hear the afflicted being shot. Dr Godalming argues with [[Professor (Outbreak)|a professor]] on the news and notices Martin scratching. She admits to Dr Larsen that the Provictus strain is active and information being transmitted from the infected to the [[Data Core (Outbreak)|Data Core]]. Ianto and Luke find people sedated and left to die, tagged as "BTCs" or "Bad Thinking Citizens".
 
Jack and Dr Larsen join forces and head to the Data Core, sedating [[Mark (Outbreak)|the guard]]. Gwen finds Rhys and shoots him in the shoulder. Becoming more lucid, she helps him up and takes him to the castle to be seen to, stealing a [[car]] after Heights men spot them. Ianto hands over Luke, who is beginning to lose control, when they are seen by guards. Gwen encourages the mob outside the castle to work together to break in and claim the cure. Jack accesses the Data Core and finds that it can be used to insert thoughts into the infected. He sets up a [[firewall]] and tells Dr Larsen to get to work making a real vaccine. She finds that Jack's [[antibody|antibodies]] can inoculate against the virus.
 
Gwen and Rhys get into the castle and Dr Godalming makes an announcement, saying that the vaccines are now available for all. Dr Larsen tells Andy that he has entered Stage 1 and, when Gwen enters, tells her the truth about Provictus. Jack, Gwen and Ianto are reunited.
 
Dr Godalming calls the minister, who is interested in what might be found from Jack's memory, and updates him. He tells her that, as there has been a report of an [[Invictus]] breakout in [[Newport]], she is to have the whole of the UK given Provictus, which she announces on the news. Jack approaches her and tells her that there is a [[Trojan Horse (virus)|Trojan Horse]] in his personal data which has deactivated all versions of the virus from the Data Core. He tells her that she and Luke have both been used and controlled and lets her drive away to safety to avoid being killed by her "husband" or the mob.
 
Gwen and Dr Larsen give out a real antidote as the Heights personnel drive away in their vans. Jack calls the minister and tells him that he will be going to prison. Dr Larsen tends to Rhys and Dr Godalming gets into her car, leaving the city and wishing everybody dead. She finds Luke in the backseat, sent there by Jack, and asks him what he is going to do to her. He tells her to keep driving and to "see what happens".
 
Gwen and Rhys go to an [[amusement park]] and Ianto confesses to Jack that he had the virus but had been resisting it.
