Rome fell.//I know. I was there.
I CAN'T EVEN.
WHAT?
WELL THEN.
BRB, never sleeping again.
My thoughts are a DISORGANIZED JUMBLE but I'll try my best here.
♦ FIRST OF ALL because it's first on my thoughts: Amy's Schrodinger's pregnancy. The way the scanner kept flipping between positive and negative. "You will bring the Silence." Connected? I THINK SO. :|
♦ I don't buy that River and the Doctor are meeting in precise reverse chronological order. As a general rule, sure, yeah, they are mostly coming at the relationship from opposite ends. Strictly speaking we-meet-linearly-just-in-reverse? No. I don't buy it. River, I am sure you will encounter a later-timeline Doctor occasionally even after this happens in your personal timeline.
♦ ♦ Wow, talking about time-travel gets complicated sometimes. We need better tenses in English.
♦ ♦ ♦ It also just doesn't hold up with what we've seen before, has it? Syncing diaries doesn't make sense if they're meeting precisely back-to-front.
♦ Canton Everett Delaware III ♥♥♥
♦ ♦ Just saying. "This person you want to marry... black?" "Yes." "I'm a little more liberal than they..." "He is." Oh, Canton. I wish we'd gotten to see his guy, but MAYBE THEY WILL TURN UP TOGETHER IN A FUTURE EPISODE OR SOMETHING IDK TIME TRAVEL AND SHIT YOU GUYS.
♦ ♦ ♦ No, really, the Doctor still hasn't found out about his death/the envelopes/why they were all there to begin with, and eventually he's going to have to. And then we can see Canton again!
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ It's Mark Sheppard, okay, we can't give him up that easily. ... all right, this is getting ridiculous I'll stop this section now.
♦ Amy/Rory are MY OTPfor this era. His stupid face and she can always hear him and ohhh my heart.
♦ I like the clarification on Rory's memories of The Lone Centurion. That was well handled.
♦ AMY
♦ ♦ Amy trapped in the children's home was one of the most TERRIFYING THINGS EVER.
♦ River is BADASS you guys she's awesome I just can't ♥♥♥ And then she freaking BROKE MY HEART at the end even though I still can't buy that she'll never see a later-timeline Doctor who likes kissing her again IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE SENSE
♦ ♦ On the other hand, "Open all the doors to the swimming pool!"
♦ River and Rory are still ♥ and so are Amy and Canton as a team and OH I LOVE TEAM TARDISES SO MUCH ♥♥♥
♦ LITTLE GIRL TIME LORD
♦ ♦ No really, LITTLE GIRL TIME LORD WTFFFFFF
♦ ♦ ♦ I CAN'T EVEN
♦ There are far too many unresolved plot threads for this to be a real conclusion. I expect story arc ahead for the season! *excited*
Okay, stepping away from plot/characterization for a moment...
♠ These episodes have been so pretty. They really made the most of shooting on location.
♠ I really really want to buy the cinematographer a drink. The lighting this two-parter was PERFECT and really added to the creepiness.
♠ ♠ Hey, Doctor Who lighting team, if you need another gaffer I will do whatever it takes to get to Cardiff and work for you. I have no experience at all in TV or film, but I will learn fast in order to work on your lights. PLS?
In conclusion, NEVER SLEEPING AGAIN.
Next week: PIRATES!
WHAT?
WELL THEN.
