Character Bio
Rex Matheson is a CIA agent at the top of his game. Ruthless, brilliant and destined for fast-track promotion, nothing's going to stop this man from getting whatever he wants in life. But when the world convulses under Miracle Day, Rex discovers that everything he thought was true and safe and fair is now in danger. And when the CIA itself turns against him, Rex finds himself on the run. The only people he can trust are some strangers from a long-lost British institute called Torchwood. Rex finds himself traveling across continents as the scale and ambition of the threat is revealed - but in trying to save the world, will he put his own life at risk once too often?

Rex Matheson Quotes
 | Season 4 / Episode 10: - The Blood Line Rex Matheson: So, you found The Blessing and worked out this morphic field. The Cousin: The Blessing exists in a symbiotic relationship with the human race. It transmits the morphic field around the planet, binding us together like magnetism, like sunlight. Esther Drummond: But binding it wasn't enough. You had to experiment on it. The Cousin: No, we fed it. The Mother: We fed it the blood of an immortal. We had one remarkable artifact. We found a second remarkable artifact. |
| Season 4 / Episode 10: - The Blood Line Rex Matheson: You've seen immortality. I'm living it. Why would you want this? The Cousin: This is only stage one. Gwen Cooper: But you ruined the world out there! The Mother: The Miracle shocked the economy. The economy collapsed. We tear down in order to rebuild. And now it's almost within sight - the new world. Gwen Cooper: Yeah, with no room for the poor, the weak and the ones who don't fit in. The Mother: That's the way the world works now. We're just making it official. The families have just been waiting. Now we can step in to control the banks. The banks control the government. The government controls the people. Soon we'll be able to decide who lives, how long, where and why. Jilly Kitzinger: [relieved sigh] It's about time. Gwen Cooper: Oh great, so it's about the world according to Kitzinger, is it? Jilly Kitzinger: Listen, you can bleed your liberal heart all over the place, but are you really going to tell me the world was working before? 'Cause I have worked for the rich, the powerful, and the obese. I have stared into the high end of the Western Society and let me tell you, it's like shoveling an open sewer. These families - they want to make the world fitter, more compact, more disciplined. I like the sound of that. That sounds like salvation. |
