I'm entirely believing he's the Do That If We Have To guy.
I wonder if it's due to a certain deadness within him because of the whole immortal thing.

I wonder that too.
I'm also wondering how far underground the Hub went and if it was built on the rift what the explosion might do - I mean could Grey and the aliens in storage have been blasted into another dimension?

Oh, and Christina Cox (of Blood Ties) has a new show - a space show on ABC.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That's probably more reasonable than the explainataion they'll come up with as soon as they need one in a story.
I've been wondering why the site didn't fill with water from the bay.
I've been thinking about Jack's actions in 1965 in light of him now knowing what happened to Grey.

They certainly seem to be showing that he doesn't do great with watching the people he loves grow old and die again and again. I can see how that would make death seem so inevitable that it doesn't really matter when or how it comes.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I don't know though... the Doctor is still subjectively older than Jack is at this point, right? And while he's avoid-y over the pain of losing people, I don't get the sense that it's numbed him to the impact of death. It may be more something in Jack's own character than a natural consequence of immortality.

Want back story on Alice's mother.
I wonder if she tried to hide Alice from Jack - or if Jack disappeared on her.
It does make me worry for Ianto.

Alice talked about him watching Mom Mum grow older and being at her funeral, so there was at least some contact.

Yeah, but it seems like something significant happened in 1965 with their family. And I'm thinking it had something to do with Jack's role in giving up the 12 children, or was there a specific threat to child Alice as in the 456 wanted her?
It's all very creepifying.

How old do you think Alice is? How old was she in 1977 when her mother asked her to be put undercover. (Was that the British version of WitSec?)

She's old enough to look older than Jack -- I'm guestimating 40+
