Added DiffLines:

It's been four years since the Miracle, and Gwen and Rhys have settled down into a nice, quiet, normal life raising Anwen and staying out of trouble. They haven't seen Jack either. Then one night, Gwen gets a call from an old woman at the Bryn Offa Nursing Home. She only speaks Welsh, but Gwen picks up the most important part - "Jack! Jack Harkness!" Gwen and Rhys head off to investigate and find an old man who claims to be Jack.

Because unfortunately, you can't just quit being Torchwood that easily. Trouble always finds you again.

!Tropes:
* FreakyFridayFlip: The Evolved are a whole society based around this, the idea being you should treat everyone well, because they could be ''you'' tomorrow. The downside is they're so self-righteous and sanctimonious they want to export this way of life to everyone. Whether they like it or not.
