When Jack moves to open his veins and release his blood into the Blessing, the Mother stops him. This will not undo the Miracle. The original effect required Jack's blood to be introduced at both Blessing sites simultaneously. Since Rex and Esther's supply of Jack's blood was destroyed, she confidentially informs them that there is no way to do this. The Mother orders all of Torchwood killed. |

Rex falters, torn by his feelings for Esther. He asks Jack what to do but he is uncertain. However, Gwen declares they carry on, aiming at Jack, arguing they have to do it, citing Oswald Danes' killing of Suzie Costello as proof for why they should: "He chose when that girl lived and when that girl died and no one should that much power" Star struck, Oswald comments on how "remarkable" Gwen is. Rex concurs, kissing Esther before rising and opening the wound over his heart, releasing Jack's blood into the Blessing. Gwen shoots Jack through the heart, releasing his blood as well. |
The Miracle ends almost immediately, accompanied by an effect Gwen calls "a breath": all of the world's Category 1 patients regain consciousness for a few seconds, then die in the next breath. This includes Gwen's father, with Rhys at his bedside. Rhys tearfully lays his phone next to the dying man's ear so he can hear his wife [[Mary Cooper|Mary]] wishing him goodbye over the phone. Geraint then passes on. The girl Andy is with dies too as he comforts her with his company. At the same time, both of the Blessing sites begin to shake, making the structure around them unstable. |

| − | Oswald grabs the Mother and urges Gwen to leave. She does, but as the exit elevator rises, Jack returns to life. A brief struggle ensues between Jilly and Gwen. Gwen incapacitates Jilly and returns in the elevator to rescue Jack. The Mother begs Oswald to let her go, but Oswald proclaims he is happy to die and go to Hell, as that is where "all the bad little girls" go. Utterly unrepentant and gleeful, his final spoken words are directed toward his victim Susie Cabina, whom he believes was sent to damnation for being bad. Oswald beckons the girl to run away, because he's coming to get her in the depths of Hell. Jack and Gwen flee the facility seconds before Oswald detonates his explosives, destroying the Shanghai facility. Kitzinger follows close behind, but stumbles to the ground. Jack and Gwen cannot go back for her. The explosion engulfs the whole complex and Jilly disappears in the flames, and they can only assume the worst. The Buenos Aires team also move to leave, but before the Cousin can make it out, Rex regains consciousness long enough to grab him and throw him over the edge of the chasm around the Blessing. He vengefully tells Esther's killer, "Guess what? Death came back!", sending the Cousin to his demise. Rex falls to the ground next to Esther. They watch each other die, but are rescued by Captain Santos and members of the Argentinian Army. Paramedics immediately start work to revive them. Rex survives, but Esther's eyes weakly peek open for one last fleeting moment, and she dies on her medical cot outside an [[ambulance]]. |

Several months later, Jilly Kitzinger has beaten the odds and survived the explosion at Shanghai. She is alive and well in [[America]], but at the cost of selling her jewellery to buy her way out of China. She spends many weeks in search of one person, and after much persistence, he finally appears before her. Jilly meets the [[blue-eyed man]] at a familiar park bench. When she pleads that she has no place to go and no life to live, he offers her a chance to participate in the Three Families' "Plan B", then departs. After some delay, Jilly follows. |
