Ianto again

[beccaelizabeth]

If I had more brain cells working I'd drabble this, but: Ianto in 1-04, revelation of background, that he was in Torchwood Tower when the Cybermen took it, that he found Lisa and got her out.
I've read people being awed at the mad skillz demonstrated, wondering how he evaded the cybermen, writing nifty adventure stories where he struggles through the battlefield to reach her.

When the Cybermen take humans to be upgraded, they stand them in lines and make them wait their turn.

Isn't it most logical that when they took Lisa, Ianto was standing right behind her?

I know, not everyone is a terminator. Even Jack got rather emotional in Cyberwoman and he was the one holding the gun! TW does have that grand human element where they're not perfect and most of the stuff they deal with was usually started by their own mistakes.

I still want to know the canon a-to-b set up of how it went from leaving him in the basement a wreck to coming in the next day to get the nod of begrudging forgiveness from Jack. Lord I love this show but their vagueness is going to be the death of me!
