I just.. omg, Doctor Who's continuity. (Spoilers)

[TP]

Dear Doctor Who fans,

Captain Jack is the Face of Boe.

Captain Jack cannot die.

Captain Jack was once a Time Agent, or pretends to be one.

Captain Jack wears a vortex manipulator.

Dorium Maldovar sold River a vortex manipulator “fresh off the wrist of a handsome Time Agent.”

Dorium Maldovar works with the Headless Monks from time to time.

The Headless Monks decapitate people.

The Face of Boe is a head with no body.

Jack has never pretended to be a Time Agent when he wasn't one. He was one, but then he wasn't, and so he became a Con Man. But he did not pretend to be a Time Agent at any point in either series.

Didn't he pretend to be one during his con with the medical ship. And anyways,

No he didn't. He assumed (in the beginning) that Rose and The Doctor were Time Agents, and he told Rose he was ex-Time-Agent-freelancer and tried to sell them the Ambulance.

Further, this nugget

Possible origin

In the episode "Last of the Time Lords", the immortal time traveller Captain Jack Harkness expresses concern about how he might look if he lives "for a million years", because although he cannot die, he is still aging, albeit slowly. He tells the Doctor and Martha Jones that it's a matter of vanity, because as the first person from the Boeshane Peninsula to join the Time Agency, he was featured on posters, becoming known as "the Face of Boe". The implication of this astonishes Martha and the skeptical Doctor.

Writer Russell T Davies, in the episode's commentary, called the implication of this scene "a theory" as to the Face of Boe's origins, prompting Executive Producer Julie Gardner to urge him to "stop back-pedaling" about the two characters being the same. Davies also said that after writing the scene he inserted a line in the ADR recording for "Gridlock" in which the Face of Boe calls the Doctor "old friend".[1] However, Davies does not like making the relationship explicit, stating "the moment it became very true or very false, the joke dies". He has refused the publication of spin-off novels and comic books that have tried to definitively link the two.[2]

In short, you're working off the assumption that said theory is correct, when you yourself point out that Captain Jack cannot die, but the Face of Boe did die, in the episode Gridlock.

Of course he can't die, he still has one of those cursed dubloons.
