Sleeper, or "How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Ianto"

[kalleah]

I had absolutely zero use for Ianto during the first series of Torchwood, and I'm completely turned around on him as of this last episode.  For one, I love a deadpan delivery (see my gigglyfest over Ben's snarking on Lost for evidence) and I certainly got my fair share of that.

I liked this episode even beyond the one-liners, which were abundant.  The fact that Janet the weevil went and peed in the corner when she/he/it saw Beth was appropriately revealing.  I liked Beth and the stunt she pulled at the end.  I love the idea that they can come back to the concept of sleepers in a month or a year -- or never.

My husband had one major issue with the show, and he makes a very solid point.  When they put the mind-probe on Beth and made all the comments about possible brain explosion, could they have not put her in some nice room that they could have wiped down a bit easier?  It would be a bitch to get all the brain out from between all those nooks and crannies.

And Ianto FTW:

"He is dashing.  You have to give him that."

ETA:  Now, Jack can't die, but surely his coat would have a big-ass hole in the back of it now?  This is going to bother me now.  Maybe Owen sewed it up for him.  (Yes.  It would be Owen.  He's a doctor.  He'll have nice, small, neat stitches.)

ETA Part 2: Thanks roquentine.  I am occasionally dense and I have fixed the quote.  ::facepalm::
