Torchwood: Miracle Day Review: End of the Road (S4, E8)

OK so I've had a change of plan. Originally I was going to do a double Torchwood episode when I return but because I'm currently using my parents TV to watch them, They become quite strict when it comes to TV. So with that out of the way, I'll do this weeks episode tomorrow if I have time (along with Doctor Who as well):


SPOILERS!!!!
So Angelo's grandaughter takes Torchwood (or whats left of them anyway) to her place of residence where Jack has a reunion with Angelo. Angelo's grandaughter explains about the cause of the miracle and what these 3 familys want to do with it. But then get disturbed by the CIA traitors who work for the familys who then get arrested by the real CIA and then along with the grandaughter (who also gets arrested) blow themselves up in a car. Gwen talks to Rhys and her mother about things while Jack, Ester and Rex talk to the chief about a partnership that TW and CIA can have to allow them to be one step closer to putting an end to the miracle. Later on, Jack has a last chat with Angelo upon discovering that he can die meaning that the miracle is slowly going away. Rex (who still has a gunshot wound) also wonders why this is happening now and why he isn't dead yet. The CIA then check out a hidden transmitter in the floor of Angelo's room and while Jack refuses to explain things to them, They then have Gwen removed from American soil which then has Jack explaining it. Two of Ester's and Rex's collegues from the CIA then decide to help them find the 3 familys while also help Ester's sister who now wants to volunteer for Catagory 1 which doesn't go down well. Meanwhile in Texas, Oswald (who now gets bored of all these conferences he has) asks his agent to get him a girl of some sort. The agent then leaves him to his toys while a undercover CIA agent goes to her and becomes her agent (until later killed by a member of one of the 3 familys). A girl pops in to see Oswald and it doesn't go down well which then see's Oswald on the run while his agent (who gets a promotion) gets escorted by a member of one of the 3 familys to an unknown place (which shall be revealed next time). Jack then takes a piece of the transmitter and escapes with Ester and Rex only to be shot and presumably start dieing. Ester takes a car with Jack inside and makes a run for it while Rex remains with the CIA.

Interesting stuff here so this story continues to get better and better each time I watch it. 9/10
