I remember watching 'Fragments' and suddenly *so* many things clicked into place re. Jack, and why he was the way he was.
Yes!! I thought I was the only one who saw it like that! Not so much during S1, but in S2 I never quite understood what made Jack tick or how all the separate aspects of his character came together; Fragments was the missing piece that suddenly made sense of the whole.
You know, I think another thing is that Torchwood was probably not entirely unlike the Time Agency, so that he felt 'at home' even though he might not be comfortable.
You're right, and I phrased it badly. What I meant was the step from thinking of himself on some level as the (mostly) good guy in (mostly) bad organisation he'd been (mostly) forced to join against his will, to realising that the century spent there left its traces.
