I thought she was just in pain.
Also, I don't remember if it was clear before this episode that Owen was (or used to be) a full-fledged doctor.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
So Nora, what do you really think of Owen?
I gotta say, I do find it interesting (if not necessarily fun) that such a vile little toad is one of the "good" guys. The actor's doing a phenomenal job of projecting both slimey and oddly charismatic. The only other actors I can think of offhand who can do that are Steve Buscemi and Willem Dafoe. Oh, and Walken.

Chuck: Kareena is Sarah's sister, right? Or did I make that up?
Journeyman: I think it's building in all sorts of interesting ways - more time travellers, more non-travellers who will know or suspect something funny with Dan. (Is the only reason he hasn't told his brother - because his brother already thinks he's nuts?)

So Nora, what do you really think of Owen?
NASTY.
(oh, wait, that was rhetorical? I care not! NASTY!)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You made that up. They just worked various missions together.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
Owen had a "fuck" in that speech too, as I recall. Are they bleeping for language?Yes but it’s pretty obvious
I don't think I heard "fuck" but I heard all about screwing and coming. So NASTY out of Owen's NASTY little weasle mouth and troll brain.
I know! See, that could have been hot if, say, Jack was saying it. . . I’ll be in my bunk.
Even if that someone was Owen? C'mon now... you're in pain and Captain Logic has abandoned you and Owen's trying to touch you?
Fair point. But Gwen clearly doesn’t have any issues with Owen’s creepiness. Or maybe she’s hate-fucking him.
Also, I don't remember if it was clear before this episode that Owen was (or used to be) a full-fledged doctor.
I’m sure he failed “bedside manner” in med school.

Some of the supplemental material on the BBC Torchwood site (which is pretty cool) indicated, IIRC, that Owen was stripped of his license for questionable activities with patients. Or something along those lines.

Punishingly Intricate

Oh, I think she does. I'm guessing she's not going to be loving herself so much the morning after.
