30 Days of Torchwood - Day 20 - Your favourite Owen moment
Both my options are in 'A Day In The Death'.
First option - Owen is having a very bad week. First, he died and then he was resurrected as an undying and yet unhealing zombie. He can't sleep, he can't eat, he can't have sex. Which given that Owen is a hedonist who does all of the above to excess in order to cope with being Owen would be terrible before you get into the greater philosophical problems of being undead.
Owen, understandably, is upset by this, but because of who he is, the way he explains this to Tosh is by breaking two of his fingers, which he knows will never heal. And yes, he does it in the heat of an argument, but he knows exactly what he's doing. And that scene is a lot of Owen's character distilled into one scene.
But what the meme is asking for is favourite moment, not most intrinsically Owen moment. And that would be the end shot of 'A Day In The Death', where Owen is holding Maggie's hand, and even knowing what he knows, they both decide that this is better than nothing. And it's a very hopeful moment in a show that doesn't really have them, with a character who doesn't really have them and it's the other part of Owen coming through, the part that does keep trying to save the world, despite everything and it's just lovely.
