Combat query
I was watching Combat again last night (my DVD's have only just arrived, growl), and I saw, or thought I saw, something odd.
When the muppet who had been running the fight club thing stepped into the cage at the end of the episode, Jack was pointing his gun at the Weevil. Now, it may have been my overactive imagination, but it looked to me like he lowered his gun, the Weevil stayed where it was watching Jack as well as the bloke. It didn't move until Jack inclined his head slightly in the bloke's direction, either instructing it, or giving it permission, to attack. Then when the camera cut back to Jack's face, there was this look of, kind of, satisfaction.
Is there a possibility that Jack is better able to communicate with/understand Weevils on the telepathic or emapthic wavelength they seem to posess than he wants to let on to his team?
It wouldn't be the first time, would it?

I don't think anyone's psychic. Jack's got enough weird going on, and Gwen is already enough of a mary-sue. If one of them turns out to be psychic, I won't be amused.

Actually if anything, it's Owen who may turn out to have the most understanding of weevils. Jack did say to Ianto that Owen had been studying them for a while.

he was very understanding in that one....
