I fully agree. Ianto could probably use that power for good with Owen much as he used it to control Jack. Except instead of distraction, it would be bribery. And they would both know it.

"Come on, Ianto, you really think I can be bribed?"

*Ianto gives him a look that says "I am not about to insult either of us by actually answering that."*

". . . right, that should only take me an hour and then I'm all yours."
