Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
RTD says he [day 5 spoiler] always sort of knew Jack would kill his grandson but I swear he also said in his first submitted version of the script he did not and he was told to make it so.

I think I know where I got my impression. The "meet cute fighting monsters" scene at the end of season two seemed to show Ianto as very experienced in flirting with guys in a way that can be shrugged off if it does not take. But maybe it is the same technique he used with women, or maybe he's been at the other end of such flirting enough that he knew what to do. So still an impression, but really weak evidence.
On edit: oh and I love when sister has just promised to keep his affair quite, and husband comes up and in a big affectionate booming voice says: "so I hear you've been taking it up the ass". And then gives him a big hug.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
The next (and last) Torchwood episode airs at the same time as the next Eureka episode, so it wouldn't work.
This move to Friday night is killing me. I was thinking, "Oh wow, poor people have to wait until Tuesday for the end."
No, Austin. Just until tonight. When Eureka also airs.

I read that differently--I expected to see more flirt in it, but until they rolled around on the ground (i.e. Jack had broken Ianto's personal space bubble) things looked pretty neutral to me.

“Not dead yet!”

Not in the BBC America version. I think all we got was something along the lines of "Hey, here's the gayboy!"

Well I've been watching the free on demand, which is BBCA but is apparently uncut. (Each ep is 63 minutes with the only commercial being an extended promo for Being Human which is repeated several times per show. So I'm guessing this is the full uncut version. On the other hand it is very random when the eps show up.) The channel as opposed to on demand BBCA is not in my comcast package. I could get it but I've got a very good (read not much money) deal for internet and cable and don't want to add stuff and make in expensive.

Wow. Eureka was really stupid tonight. I guess every show of this sort needs its phantasm episode, and this was a poor example of the genre.
