Here's my review and response to episode 2. Heavy on the screencaps. Heavy on the Ianto. You've been warned. :D 

Though if I have to warn for Ianto, then I don't think you're paying close enough attention.







Action-Hero!Gwen



Poor Ianto! First his boyfriend has a bomb in his stomach, then his place of employment blows up and now he's being shot at! Poor thing doesn't get a break.



PC Andy! How I've missed you. Even if you are a bit of a horny thing who cocks things up now and again. But look at the face!



Oh your face! Someone's been watching a bit too much Scooby-Doo...






Oh Rhys, I'm loving those undies of yours.



Ianto doesn't like ice cream? I'm sorry pet but the intimate relationship I have with Ben & Jerry will no longer allow us to be friends. 



Poor Andy! Always in over his head.



Did they model that space whale after this guy? Cause I'm seeing the similarities. And just like that whale, I did not need to see this. 



Who could that figure be in the distance there?



Why it's Ianto Jones! I always knew he was a stalker at heart.



Why don't you just break my heart Gareth!? I swear there is no emotion this man cannot express through his eyes.



Oh Ianto, ever the efficient one.



I like Ianto's nephew. He thankfully seems to take after his mother's side of the family.



I don't know if I mentioned this yesterday, but I also really like Ianto's sister. But that card pretty much broke my heart. 



The worst John Barrowman's ever looked...? Possibly...



I'm beginning to think that I have something in common with Ianto/Gareth. We have no idea how to talk to children.

I like the fact that Ianto's sister took everything about his job in stride. 




That strategically placed X is endlessly funny to me.



Ianto's back to the stalking game. 



I think I have an addiction to pictures of sad Ianto.





Oh Ianto Jones, I love you so hard! :D



There's that naked John Barrowman I was promised.







Shiny Happy Ianto is shiny and happy! Yay!



I love the way that Ianto just stares at Jack and follows with his eyes with that little smile on his face. Can you feel the love!?



Pretty, pretty London. How I wish I could teleport to you right now.





Another one of John's toys?



Ianto's got a new suit!

Some concluding thoughts:

I don't know if I like the fact that Lois caught on so fast that something was eschew in that office or if it's just something to move the plot along. I do like how competent she is and if she survives and ends up at Torchwood, it'll be interesting to see how she gets along with Ianto. Competition much?

I love Ianto. (In case you couldn't tell by how this became the Ianto show) Gareth's performance and the continued mystery and depth of the character are IMHO the best part of the show and what drew me in to begin with. If there is no Ianto, there is no Torchwood. 

Is it tomorrow yet!? I need MOOORREEEE!!!!

Poor Ianto's pretty suit also got ruined. I realise the main part of his bad day was probably the whole bomb/getting shot at thing but still, a moment of silence for the suit. Still, he's got plenty more :)

If there is no Ianto, there is no Torchwood. Word. I love him so much.

I don't know if I like the fact that Lois caught on so fast that something was eschew in that office or if it's just something to move the plot along. This was my only problem with this episode. The way Frobisher and his assistant woman just randomly took her along with them, allowing her to glimpse what they were building. According to day one she was supposed to be a temp there to do data entry - why would they take her to the MI5 building? I call plot device.
