I am not going to summarize everything but I will give some thoughts.
1. That is the coolest...weirdest prison ever.
2. That was a lot of blood in the opening scene...whose was it....and why did the person who brought
the doctor there turn to dust....?
3. That thing looked like it was right out of Harry Potter....can you say Dementor
Alright...those were my initial thoughts. As always Twelve was exceptional. He was it. He was the only person there...well him and a CLOCKWORK dementor (seriously why are the most terrifying Who monsters clockwork?!?!?!). He was amazing. Just give Capaldi all the awards he is freaking phenomenal.
So all in all, I thought this episode was wondrous. There was an air of mystery but enough hints that if you were paying attention, you kind of figured it out. As we all know hindsight is 20/20 but I really did catch onto a few things before the big reveal even if I didn't quite put them together in time.
For instance when he sees the portrait of Clara... my questions were: why is it so worn? Is it really old? Wait, how long has it been there? Who drew it? Did he draw it? Why does it look ancient?
When he jumped out the damn window into the sea of skulls... Holy $hit that's a lot of skulls. Wait...whose skulls are those? They all look similar... What species has skulls that uniform...humans don't...well not that uniform.
Mind Storm Room...did Moffat forget he was writing Who and not Sherlock??? OMG Clara is in his storm room. Even in Death she keeps him grounded.
Was I the only one that questioned the f**king extra suit drying by the fire? My initial reaction "wait...how many times has he done that???" Turns out THAT is the right question!
So the "dementor" for lack of a better word needs "truths" or it kills him. But why??? What secret(s) are they trying to get out of him and who is they?!?!?
"I am in 12"...that is a CLEAR reference to him being the 12th incarnation of The Doctor...right?!?!?!
That "diamond" wall said "Home"...I rewound it and clearly saw the word Home. Everyone online said its the T.A.R.D.I.S. I said "Gallifrey" and I got so many replies saying that was stupid, the T.A.R.D.I.S. is Home, duh.
When things start to fall into place...Wait how long has he been there??? OMG all the skulls are him! How many times has this happened?!?! It's like f**king Groundhog Day! Two billion years?!?!!? Hold up, how come the diamond wall doesn't repair like the rest of the castle!??!!?
They keep you so involved in the scare factor, you don't realize who "They" clearly are. The second he broke through the wall I literally screamed "Gallifrey!" And then squeed like an idiot when they showed the dome. My brain caught up and....
Then he says this "You can probably still hear me so, just between ourselves, you've got the prophecy wrong. The Hybrid is not half-Dalek. Nothing is half-Dalek. The Daleks would never allow that. The Hybrid destined to conquer Gallifrey and stand in its ruins is Me." F**king Timelords messing with The Doctor...AGAIN!
People were like Holy $hit, he's the Hybrid!!! The movie is cannon!!! He is half human!!! And I'm over here like "Wait...isn't the little crazy girl calling herself Me these days???" So that's my prediction for the Finale. The "hybrid" isn't the Doctor...its Me...and the Doctor is gonna either help or stop her. Or it at least has something to do with Me. He recognized her when she was Ashildr but couldn't place her. She is significant to all this Gallifrey BS! I could be totally wrong but that makes sense to...well me. What do you think???
Below were my real time online musings as things progressed:
- Anyone else not realize the bugs were on the tv at first….I thought I had some unwanted guests
- "Whose been stealing my nightmares…" Yikes!
- He just…he just jumped out a f**king window…
- Awwww, Clara is in his “storm room”
- So is the question, how many times has he done that….?
- Is he in azkaban…?
- "I am in 12"… What?!?!
- “I didn’t leave Gallifrey because I was bored, I lied”…..“I was scared…I ran because I was scared”
- “I’m not scared of hell…its just heaven for bad people” well you aren't wrong
- Did that just say “home”? Like as in Gallifrey????
- Eeeeee Clara! Even if it’s just a memory…inner conscience…. what ever
- Dafuq just happened?!?! Did he die...?!!?!
- All the blood is his!?!?!? The hand....the, the...whoa
- How long has he been there?!?!?!?
- Holy crap!!!! The skulls, they are all him….what?!?!?
- It’s Groundhog Day for the doctor!!!
- Did he just say 20,000 years that time?!?!?!?!??
- 2 billion years…good god
- What in the what what…what?
- I'm not okay...send help...and wine...
