Sometimes, Jack is just not the sharpest tack in the box, is he? And he always goes for the flash, like gambling all night in a neon-lit resort. I think he doesn't really know Ianto all that well sometimes. Showy ostentation isn't the way, I would say. :)

He just wants to show Ianto the glamour of the universe, while showing Ianto off, but he's quick to realise that Ianto's idea is much more appealing, so he does learn sometimes.

He's just overconfident. Maybe he forgets that earth vehicles, no matter how well made and enhanced with alien tech they might be, still have their limitations.

Thank you!

And he wants to show Ianto to the universe . As the old quote says, "Come into the garden I want the roses to see you."

He's very quick to admit when Ianto has the better idea, and no too proud to indulge him. Of course, even after all this time he doesn't make allowances for Welsh weather

It's a typical British trait - no matter what the weather's like, we're never prepared for it even when we know it's coming and we always think it won't be as bad as the forecaster's say. It's a peculiar sort of optimism and short-sightedness. Jack is no different than the rest of us.

Jack will always indulge Ianto whenever possible. And indulge IN Ianto too ;)

Of course Jack wants to show Ianto off - who wouldn't?
