Ianto then said to Jack that one day Jack will gonna need some help, but he will look him die.

The next morning, Ianto came back to the hub, look at to Jack and then go back to his work.

In the next episod, "Small Worlds", Jack wakes up after a nightmare and find Ianto in the hub. He then asks Ianto what is he doing here, putting his hand on Ianto's shoulder. Ianto then looks at him a little tense, perhaps because he's still mad about Lisa's story or because he starts to fell attracted to him or the both...

In "Countrycide" Ianto is seen for the first time in casual clothes, not in a suit. He goes on the field with the team for the first time. Gwen starts the game "who's the last person you've kissed", when it cames to Ianto's turn, he said it was Lisa, putting a little tension in the team, then looking to Jack (Because he still angry at or/and knows that Jack kissed him).

Owen, hoping to retrieve his lost love Diane, wants to trie to open the rift without the complete equation, but Ianto refuses saying it's to dangerous. The two argue, Owen tries tu put the key so Ianto shots him in the shoulder. Thanks to Toshiko genius they succeed to open the rift and get Jack and Tosh back and closed the rift.
