*Jack refers to himself as Jack Harkness in his Victorian-era flashback, but that alias was taken from a Second World War airman. | |||
*Jack is "killed" by the blast, Ianto gets at least a hand injury and head wound, and Tosh breaks her arm and some ribs, yet Owen - arguably the most fragile of the group and unable to heal - somehow manages to escape completely unscathed. | *Jack is "killed" by the blast, Ianto gets at least a hand injury and head wound, and Tosh breaks her arm and some ribs, yet Owen - arguably the most fragile of the group and unable to heal - somehow manages to escape completely unscathed. | ||
::Martha had said in an earlier episode that Owen can't bruise, and as was revealed by him cutting his hand open in [[Dead Man Walking]], he doesn't bleed either. If one considers this and the fact that he can't feel pain and was wearing clothes that covered most of his body, he could have suffered considerable physical trauma and he and the viewer would not be aware of it. Also, it might just be a storytelling device -- irony. Also, the explosion was down to chance. Chance doesn't decide which person is most 'fragile.' Another thing is that he may be wearing some form of protection underneath his clothing in order to protect himself more than normal. | ::Martha had said in an earlier episode that Owen can't bruise, and as was revealed by him cutting his hand open in [[Dead Man Walking]], he doesn't bleed either.
