' | Sent on a "cosy assignment" by [[Jack Harkness|Jack]] to impress the newly-recruited [[Gwen Cooper|Gwen]], [[Ianto Jones|Ianto]] and [[Toshiko Sato|Tosh]] track [[the Rift|Rift]] energy to a [[village]] where the air becomes [[poison]]ed by a strange [[mist]]. They take refuge in the [[Torchwood SUV|SUV]] whilst villagers are torn apart by an [[alien]] which thrives in the [[atmosphere]] and manage to drive a distance away before the engine stops, apparently damaged by the mist. By accessing a [[satellite]], Tosh learns that the mist is growing and deduces that it is a self-replicating [[terraforming]] system. | ||
Tosh boots up an [[electric fuel cell]] and, after the alien attacks the car and fails to get in, Ianto drives away until the cell runs out, needing [[solar power]] to recharge. They push the SUV up a hill and drive down backwards, after which the mist starts talking through the SUV and explains that it works with the aliens, the [[Zahir]], to clear [[planet]]s for it to inhabit. Ianto and Tosh work together and use the wire frame from under the seats to break out of the locked car and tubing from the [[computer]] cables to siphon out the car's [[petrol]], which they then set alight to burn the mist. | |||
The Zahir [[suffocation|suffocate]] without the mist and the SUV is damaged, which Ianto believes Jack will be more upset about than if he and Tosh had died. [[The Sun]] rises and the electric fuel cell is recharged, allowing Ianto and Tosh to drive back to [[Cardiff]] for their appraisals with Jack. However, Jack calls them and lets them know that he and Gwen are hunting a [[Yeti]] and, as a result, the appraisals have been cancelled. | |||
