Plot
Some squatters are scared off frrom a warehouse by something that crashes through the roof. It asumes a human form and leaves the building.

The poilice investigate has Torchwood arrives and takes juristiction. The find that the item that crashed was a transport pod with preprogrammed cordinents to drop off something non organic with a Morphangenic signicture. Jack recognises the signiture and freaks telling the team they have to get back to the Hub and that he will explain on the way. Gwen and Rex want answers now but Jack says if they dont beat this thing to the Hub it will start killing innocent people. He tells them its going to the Hub because its looking for him.

The creature is travling to the hub; its face is obscured in shadowes when it is set upon by some youths who attack it when it ignores them. It responded by breaking the groups legs and stabbing them with a metal spike that emerges from the palm of its hand.

In the SUV Jack explains they are dealing with a Synthdroid; robots similar to the fictional terminator that are used by various races to assasinate spesific, difficult targets. They are self repairing, posess great speed and strength, retractable stabbing blades and bare the appearance of somone close to their targets. Jack says they have to deal with it quickly because it will kill innocent people and cause chaos to draw Jack out and the regular police wouldnt be able to handle it, "just piss it off". Jack dosent know who sent it but admits he has enemies and one them must have decided to settle the score.

They enter the Hub and find the power has been cut and Jack sends Rex and Gwen to the Armory because the Synthdroid will kill them to get to Jack. Jack gose alone into the main part of the hub to restart the power unaware the Synthdroid is pearched in the raffters. Has soon as he get the power back on the creature lands in front of him dressed in black and to Jack's horror is wearing Ianto Jones's face. The creature stabs Jack in the chest before he can even mutter Ianto's name. It turns to leave only to met by a hail of bullets from Rex and Gwen.

Rex checks on Jack; who is quickly healing and Gwen keeps her gun trained on the robot who is horrified that it has their dead friend's face. Jack comes to and tells the team they dont have long has the Synthdroid is quickly repairing. He explains that those who use Synthdroids have a twisted sense of irony by sending a "loved one" to kill the target. He is finding it difficult to look at the creature but affirms its not Ianto; its just wearing his face and is nothing but a reuthless killing machine.

Suddenly part of the Synthroid moves and it soots two spikes at Rex and Gwen wich Jack blocks with his body has the body crawls off into the darkness of the Hub. The Spikes retract from Jack who catches one of them and tells Gwen to fetch item 23475D from the weapon vault. The weapon is an EMP canon wich will fire a projectile at the robot and disable it so long as the bolt remains in place.

Jack will lure the creature out by going to the aqua dock in the Hub while the other two set up.

In the Aqua dock Jack taunts the creature to come and get him to get back what he stole from it and to finish the job. He asks who sent it but is met with silence and gusses it dosent matter. He says its ironic because the real Ianto said he would watch Jack die one day but that Ianto was no killer.The spike shoots from his
