I couldn't say, and I was wondering myself if it was a line from a poem or something. (I'll totally research that, because, you know, poetry.)
2. Owen was so snarkless I wasn't sure it was him. He was nice to Toshiko - and protective of her. Is this Owen, or a skrull impostor? He sounded most like himself when he said, "I didn't think you had some weird fetish for defrosted me."
I noticed that, too, and it was only after someone reminded me of Diane/the season finale that the new, gentler version of Owen made sense. I wish they'd shown his motivations more clearly; he could have mentioned Diane, at the very least. His newfound sensitivity does make sense for his arc, but there's still a teeny gap between S1 Owen and S2 Owen.
And, yeah, I miss the snark too. I keep waiting for him to go all mean again.
Ianto? I think I liked him better when he was all silent and mysterious. He seems more immature in this season, which is a big contrast to efficient S1 Ianto.

Other than that, thumbs up!
