So really, he thinks Rose is dead and he's waiting for the Doctor.
Good point. Unless, of course, he's hoping that the (relative) past Rose pops up, but that's just silly.
(Our grammar has almost no room for accomodating discussion of time travel. Very awkward!)
*nod* the question of how Jack got the 21st century in the first place is a tantalizin' one. My personal theories range from "Went to Cardiff after leaving satellite 5, desperately bodged something together with scavenged equipment, threw a switch and hoped for the best" to "Just woke up there one day, with ANOTHER hole in the memory" to "There's another Time Lord left running around and he's got a nasty sense of humor", etc, etc.
In some ways, I hope they *don't* answer the question of how Jack ended up here/now...
