[When Ianto appears on screen, it should be apparent to anyone who's familiar with the recent rash of attack victims that he's the latest. He's slumped against the wall, looking much the worse for wear, with an expression on his face that speaks of imminent panic.]

Has anyone seen Jack Harkness? I was attacked, and he-- [He has to pause, his voice failing him momentarily. He's too weak to be expending this much energy worrying.] He was right down the hall. He would have come looking for me, but he isn't here and he isn't responding.

Jack, if you're seeing this, please, please respond.

[He slides further down the wall, exhausted, and winces as the fabric of his jumpsuit brushes against the wound on his chest.]

[ALARM!!!]

Oh-oh god. Uh, no, but I can go look for him? Uh, what happened?

[Tavros immediately assumes it was Bec Noir]

[coffeeking]

Tavros...be careful. There's something on the ship attacking people. If you look for him, don't go alone.

[peanutblooder]

O-okay. Is this the same thing, maybe, that Cave Johnson warned us about?

[coffeeking]

[Ianto swallows, trying to keep his head from lolling to the side]

Yeah. I have the same injury on my chest as the others.

[peanutblooder]

Um. Ianto, there is not a nice way to say this, but, uh, you look really bad. Did you go to the Med bay?

[coffeeking]

I can't get there on my own. Rory's coming.

[peanutblooder]

Oh god. Okay. Um. I'm in my room, I can come help? I, uh, have wheels, will travel?

[coffeeking]

[Ianto laughs a little, despite himself]

Thank you, but... can you look for Jack, like you said? Take someone with you and try to find him. Please.

[peanutblooder]

Yes, I will find someone to look with me. Um, please be okay.

[coffeeking]

Thank you, Tavros.
