Twelve years after disappearing at a [[fayre]] at [[Penarth Pier]], [[Molly Morgan|Molly]] shows up on the doorstep of her mother, [[Alison Morgan|Alison]], who has been having [[nightmare]]s about her ever since she vanished. [[Ianto Jones|Ianto]] visits the house with a cover story about investigating the malfunction of [[satellite]] systems at the same time that Molly returned, but Alison refuses to answer any questions until he goes to see if any footage was caught on any the neighbours' [[camera]]. When he confirms her suspicion that he is [[Torchwood Three|Torchwood]], she lets him in and tells him about Molly, whose disappearance he remembers from his childhood as he grew up on the estate, and her ex-husband, [[Stuart Morgan|Stuart]]. | Twelve years after disappearing at a [[fayre]] at [[Penarth Pier]], [[Molly Morgan|Molly]] shows up on the doorstep of her mother, [[Alison Morgan|Alison]], who has been having [[nightmare]]s about her ever since she vanished.

A scan determines that Molly is completely [[human]], but | A scan determines that Molly is completely [[human]], but [[Bunny (Missing Molly)|Bunny]], the stuffed toy that her father won for her at the fayre, has no signs of wear and her clothes fit her despite twelve years having passed. Ianto advises Alison not to tell Stuart and decides not to bring in Torchwood either to ensure that the situation is dealt with sensitively, instead promising to visit every day to observe Molly and try to trigger her [[memory]]. That night, however, Alison tells a disbelieving Stuart over the [[telephone]] and then shows Molly the [[birthday present|birthday]] and [[Christmas present]]s she bought for her each year she has been gone. The next day, Ianto takes Molly for [[ice cream]] and asks her about the day she went missing. | ||
Alison is concerned that Molly has not been especially upset about not seeing her father or happy about her presents and worried that Torchwood will study her or lock her away when Ianto eventually has to give [[Jack Harkness|Jack]] a report. Ianto borrows Bunny and visits Stuart, who has no memory of the toy, accuses the woman with Alison of being a [[con artist]] or helping Alison as part of a scam and asks him to leave when he questions whether he would recognise his daughter given that he has no [[photograph]]s of her on display in his apartment. Ianto takes Bunny and tells Stuart how the toy was won by Molly's father at a shooting game at the fayre after fourteen attempts. | Alison is concerned that Molly has not been especially upset about not seeing her father or happy about her presents and worried that Torchwood will study her or lock her away when Ianto eventually has to give [[Jack Harkness|Jack]] a report.

When Alison gets Molly to close her eyes and try to remember where she has been, Molly recalls how she dropped Bunny in the [[sea]] and Alison suggests that Stuart does not want to see her because he is angry. This fails to get an emotional response from her, however, and she hurts her to try to get her to cry. | |||
