Chasing your dream
1 September 2009
When Eugene Swanson awakens he realizes that he is laying in the road with no memory of what happened to him. Soon he realizes when he sees Gwen and the rest of the Torchwood team examine his body laying in the dirt that he must be dead. Then his wish becomes reality. For years he has been trying to meet the members of Torchwood and know as a ghost he is able to follow Gwen who is trying to investigate why he died . Gwen first visit Eugenes mother, than his friends where he worked, but they are all obviously hiding something. Eugene looked very cute and his crush on Gwen was nice. All he wanted was to believe in the impossible. Unfortunately while he was convincing himself that somehow he will get to contact with alien his personal life was a disaster. The episode is really a story from an angle by Eugene and it was fun to see through his eyes Torchwood. Also the scene in Gwens bedroom was very beautiful, and somehow the way he was able to connect with Gwen was interesting to watch. He himself said that he doesn't want it to end, but of course nothing lasts forever. The episode was in very slow narrative pace and I really liked it.
