'Doctor Who' The Well Review | Season 2 Episode 3

1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,000
I got to be honest, I thought
this episode was going to take

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:08,320
place in a bakery.
The doctor's got cakes, baby

3
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:10,880
cake, cake, cake, cake, cake,
cake.

4
00:00:20,350 --> 00:00:24,190
Hello everyone, and welcome to
another episode of A Bite of I'm

5
00:00:24,190 --> 00:00:26,390
Derek.
That's Noah, and we're talking

6
00:00:26,390 --> 00:00:29,350
about Doctor Who Season 2,
Episode 3.

7
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,520
We're saying it too much at the
top of an episode.

8
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,960
So you're saying it, but then
you say it, and then I say it

9
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:36,480
again.
I just seen it.

10
00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:37,560
You don't know what I'm going to
say.

11
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:38,880
Oh, I know what you're going to
say.

12
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,320
We're talking about Doctor Who
Season 2, Episode 3.

13
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:46,320
Yeah, the.
Well, this one highly

14
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,760
anticipated just because of
rumors, you know, So we got a

15
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,280
lot to talk about with this one.
Were the rumors right?

16
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,320

OK, spoilers ahead for Doctor

Who the Well go watch it please
and maybe watch an episode from

26
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,520
season 4, episode 10 My Help.
Just look at that tight

27
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,800
costuming in this episode, So
tight.

28
00:01:33,320 --> 00:01:37,560
Let us officially take a bite of
Doctor Who Season 2 Episode 3

29
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,120
the well written by Russell T
Davies and Sharma Angel Walfall

30
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,320
and directed by Amanda Brocchi.
The Doctor and Belinda suit up

31
00:01:45,320 --> 00:01:48,280
and skydive with a team of
troopers, landing on a deserted

32
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,920
planet.
The heartbeat of a Soul Survivor

33
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,000
is discovered, but something
lurks just behind their back.

34
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,960
When the clock strikes midnight,
something seems all too

35
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,720
familiar.
Familiar.

36
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,000
Can you believe it?
So what are your general

37
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:08,400
thoughts, Mr. Noah?
I dare to say it's probably one

38
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,360
of my favorite episodes of
Doctor Who in a long time.

39
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,680
I think it actually has knocked
out some of my favourites from

40
00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:21,960
Anshuti's first season being the
Devil's Cord and 73 Yards.

41
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,120
I was trying to think of what
the unit of measurement was.

42
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:29,280
I would say it's like now on top
of my favorite Fern Chuti.

43
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:34,800
And that's mostly because I just
think the acting and the

44
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,560
building of paranoia and fear,
it's like a pressure cooker of

45
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,640
all of that was so well done.
Coupled with the music, the

46
00:02:42,640 --> 00:02:45,320
costuming, which we already
mentioned, which is dangerous

47
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,840
and sexy and probably the best
space suits in recent memory.

48
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,400
I think it's a very good episode
of Doctor Who.

49
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,240
And it sometimes whenever I see
episodes like this, I'm like,

50
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,120
you know, if we could just
always be running on all of

51
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:05,000
these cylinders all the time.
I know it's impossible, right?

52
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:10,240
But like, it would just make
Doctor Who like just so much

53
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:11,680
better.
Does that make sense?

54
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,880
Yeah, I understand.
I mean, at first I want to say

55
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:20,000
I'm sorry for putting my male
gaze on Inchuti, but but they

56
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,840
were like doing back shots of
him, like even some of his

57
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,520
reactions, like nobody was
turning.

58
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,200
Like everybody was fully turning
around except for him.

59
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,960
Can you rephrase that 'cause I
think using back shots is even

60
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,840
worse?
I think that was perfect, no?

61
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,120
Made it 10 times worse.
What?

62
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:42,680
He looked great.
You know, I mean, there's no

63
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,720
apology.
There's whoever I, I meant to

64
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,200
look up the costume designer.
I didn't.

65
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,480
Whoever the costume designer was
was like, you know what, let's

66
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,600
make sure everybody looks hot.
This entire cast, even that's a

67
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,240
little small.
Everybody was very attractive.

68
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,120
This was a sexy group of
troopers, that's for sure.

69
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,000
But all together, back to the
actual episode, I agree with

70
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,920
you.
You know, I think some of my

71
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,680
kind of issues with some of the
latest episodes, this diminished

72
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,240
all that.
This took those things and

73
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,600
corrected it.
This felt like a very sorry to

74
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,720
use this word again tight
episode, right?

75
00:04:18,079 --> 00:04:20,120
Everything.
There was a linear plot point.

76
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,360
There were some mysteries
dropped in there.

77
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:28,360
I think that the emotional beats
were we, we, we got them on a

78
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,240
fairway.
It felt natural.

79
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,600
Whereas sometimes it feels a
little forced to me.

80
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,760
Sometimes the storyline feels a
little muddled.

81
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:41,080
This one was super tight, super
to the point, and I felt like we

82
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,800
could follow it the whole time.
It wasn't really muddled by any

83
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,520
side stories or anything that we
were kind of introduced to

84
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,560
things last minute.
Like this was a really great,

85
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,720
intense episode.
I think this is a good example

86
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,000
of even though it is essentially
a sequel to an episode that

87
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,280
happened years prior with
another face and everything,

88
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,000
sometimes with Doctor Who, they
like to introduce this sci-fi

89
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,480
concept, this alien concept and
then over explain it almost or

90
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,400
be like, just so you know, like
this is how it works.

91
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,000
Where it's like, I think we need
to give some grace to the

92
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,000
audience that we're a little
smarter.

93
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,520
Like if we're this deep into
Doctor Who, I think we can

94
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,560
figure it out, right.
And what this episode did was

95
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,840
show that you don't need to
handhold and you just need to

96
00:05:26,840 --> 00:05:29,360
tell the story.
And I'm not saying Doctor Who

97
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,320
does that a lot.
I'm just more, I guess I should

98
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,960
broadly say sci-fi can tend to
do that.

99
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,880
Or it's like, we got it, like
just just show us the story and

100
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,280
then we'll figure it out, right?
And this one did a good job of

101
00:05:41,280 --> 00:05:46,080
like just we're figuring it out
as our characters are figuring

102
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,600
it out, but we're in the dark
just as much as they are.

103
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,240
And with an episode like this,
like this sci-fi horror, it

104
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,240
works so well.
Yeah, and it's funny because

105
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,840
when this episode started, I I
was nervous because I thought

106
00:05:58,840 --> 00:06:01,440
that they were going to do that
hand holding thing because

107
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,080
there's kind of the over
explanation of how they can't

108
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,320
get back to Earth 2025.
And, you know, Belinda being

109
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,240
like, are we going to change
clothes?

110
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:10,680
And it's like, oh, we're doing
this again.

111
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,680
You know, we're we're we're
doing the same beat from the

112
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,840
last episode.
But then when we get into it, it

113
00:06:15,840 --> 00:06:18,960
really kind of lost that.
And I also liked that we got

114
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,480
those very classic who things,
right of him showing his blank

115
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,680
badge, you know, of him using
the Sonic screwdriver.

116
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,840
Psychic Paper.
Psychic paper.

117
00:06:27,840 --> 00:06:30,480
Sorry everyone.
Sorry, sorry, the comments are

118
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,800
going wild.
But you know, and there was no

119
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,560
explanation of it.
It just happened.

120
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,920
Everybody kind of saw what they
needed to see and it just

121
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,240
worked.
Their choice of using toxic in

122
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,840
an unironic way was a choice
that was This is my biggest

123
00:06:44,840 --> 00:06:48,080
critique of this episode because
toxic has been played before but

124
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:52,200
more of like mocking.
So in this way I was like I

125
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:57,080
don't weird weird choice and.
Again, it yeah, it was something

126
00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,040
about that first scene right out
of this whole episode, which was

127
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,280
really great.
That first scene was the only

128
00:07:03,280 --> 00:07:05,240
kind of hiccup for me.
And what?

129
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,000
I liked, I liked the first
scene.

130
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,040
It did feel a little like, OK,
we got to get the episode

131
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,920
started right because we pick up
right from the last episode and

132
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,680
Belinda and the doctor are
talking and she's like, are my

133
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,880
parents there?
Like if Earth doesn't exit, like

134
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,480
what are we talking about?
Like, and he comforts her and is

135
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,000
like, I'm going to make your dad
laugh.

136
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,560
You know, we're I'm going to
meet your parents.

137
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,200
It's going to be fine.
So we have that moment of like,

138
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,560
OK, like, let's just try to
figure it out.

139
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,320
I know it's scary, but let's
figure it out.

140
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,240
And then it does kind of get to
that.

141
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,400
Can't be.
It'll be that.

142
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,880
I don't know if it hit well, but
I do like them changing it to

143
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,160
different outfits.
And I like that the TARDIS was

144
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,080
like, I know exactly the space
outfits that these troopers

145
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,560
have, so here you go. 100% the
TARDIS always knows what it's

146
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,000
doing, you know?
But I do.

147
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,200
And another point that's kind of
interesting about this season is

148
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,400
that these first 3 episodes are
back-to-back to back, right?

149
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,640
There's no adventure in between.
It's literally picking up where

150
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,920
the last one left off.
I like how there's two things so

151
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,080
far and this is on us or mostly
on me.

152
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,240
And I was saying, you know,
there's episodes in between,

153
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:15,720
there's journeys in between
these things.

154
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,480
We don't see them this we're
seeing the relationship in real

155
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,640
time.
Another thing that I, when you

156
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,680
said what do you think about the
Vindicator, I was like, it's

157
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,240
fine.
It's one of those things that's

158
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,560
just going to go away, not going
to come back.

159
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,520
It seems like it's going to be a
big part.

160
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,040
It's the major pop point of the
season.

161
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,039
And, you know, something that I
noticed in this episode was that

162
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,559
kind of looks like a guitar.
Yeah, right.

163
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:38,080
So there's still that music
thing.

164
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,720
And even, again, Belinda brings
up that my parents, it's Friday

165
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:42,919
night.
My parents are at the pub.

166
00:08:42,919 --> 00:08:46,040
My dad is going to sing.
So, you know, we still have that

167
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,000
theme of music running through
this season.

168
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:49,480
Well, it's entertainment, you
know.

169
00:08:49,560 --> 00:08:51,680
And then Toxic by Britney
Spears, Yeah.

170
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,280
Yeah, I think we're still.
Yeah, as the season goes on, I

171
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,120
think we'll start getting a
clearer picture of what's going

172
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,200
on right now.
I think the mystery of Earth not

173
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,600
existing and we find out that
these people that are on this

174
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,560
mission as well have never heard
of Earth or humans.

175
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,520
So it's just adding to that
mystery.

176
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:13,120
But I like that that was really
the only thing outside of this

177
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,440
episode that we got.
Everything was self-contained

178
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,560
into this.
And that brings me to the

179
00:09:17,560 --> 00:09:19,160
comparisons with Midnight,
right?

180
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:24,360
So this is very much a sequel.
And I put like sequel only in

181
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,560
that it takes place in the same
literally the same planet

182
00:09:27,560 --> 00:09:30,040
hundreds of thousands of years
in the future.

183
00:09:30,680 --> 00:09:34,200
Midnight is considered and is
one of my favorite top five

184
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,680
episodes of Doctor Whoever.
It's just so well done.

185
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,360
It's one of those like, I
believe it was like almost a

186
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,560
last minute addition to David
Tennant's last season on Doctor

187
00:09:44,560 --> 00:09:46,720
Who, and it turned out to be one
of the best ones.

188
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:52,320
That episode did a really good
job of showing how much paranoia

189
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,160
and fear a group of people can
have and how that changes

190
00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,320
humans, how the best types of
humans, that assistant in

191
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,240
midnight turned even on the
Doctor and was like, let's get

192
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,280
rid of them.
So that's what that episode did

193
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,000
really well.
And I think this episode did the

194
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:11,520
same thing while there was, I
would say these are like

195
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,480
military people, right?
So they're a little more

196
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,480
hardened and they're a little
more like, I will do what you

197
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,680
tell me to do.
I still think showing that fear

198
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,640
and not really knowing what's
happening can change people.

199
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:29,480
Yeah, I thought that that that
sense of paranoia was definitely

200
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,160
palpable in both of these
episodes.

201
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,800
And, you know, as I was watching
Midnight, I'd seen it for the

202
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,440
first time.
One of the things that really

203
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,720
stuck out to me was how, you
know, first of all, it all takes

204
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,600
place in just this one vehicle,
right?

205
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,680
Which that's great writing when
you can make that much paranoia.

206
00:10:44,680 --> 00:10:48,320
And that much happened for 40
something minutes in one set

207
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:49,760
piece.
And non-stop.

208
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,000
Right.
And so that's really fantastic.

209
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,280
So that was written by Russell T
Davies.

210
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,160
This is also written as a Co
writer by Russell T Davies.

211
00:10:57,560 --> 00:11:01,640
But something that struck stuck
out to me at Midnight was that

212
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,680
there was this kind of power
play that I saw it towards the

213
00:11:04,680 --> 00:11:10,080
end of the episode where it felt
very much like how angry white

214
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:15,200
people can stir an entire
movement of paranoia towards

215
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,240
against one person.
And the people of color need to

216
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,880
struggle to try and regain
control and stop them from doing

217
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,840
that.
And in this one, it felt a

218
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,400
little more like that paranoia
again, but there was that power

219
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,800
dynamic.
It felt more like between almost

220
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:34,720
like men and women, right?
Of like when we have this kind

221
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,560
of second in command character,
Cassio, who automatically keeps

222
00:11:38,560 --> 00:11:42,320
pushing against their captain,
who was really fantastic.

223
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,400
You know what I mean?
They were incredible.

224
00:11:44,680 --> 00:11:46,360
Shia, I believe, is the name of
the character.

225
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,520
And so again, we see this power
struggle, we see this dynamic,

226
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:54,400
we see this reflection of of
kind of what we see in society.

227
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,840
And I think both episodes did
that well, but in different

228
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,960
ways.
In this one, it's a definitely a

229
00:11:59,960 --> 00:12:02,440
little more intense.
The set is a lot bigger.

230
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,920
There's a lot more people at
play here and there's a bigger

231
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,840
mystery.
I feel we're we're walking into

232
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,720
the mystery, whereas the other
one, the mystery, we kind of are

233
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,520
along for the ride with the
characters.

234
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,920
Yeah, Missus Sylvester and
Midnight was very much the

235
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,440
subject of paranoia and the
person that was repeating, and I

236
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,880
love the whole sequence.
And then the repeating caught

237
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:29,080
up, and then it was taking the
voice in this one, it was we got

238
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,840
to see a different side of the
entity, if that even is the same

239
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,040
entity, right?
We don't necessarily know.

240
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,800
It could be, it could not be.
It's been hundreds of years.

241
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,440
Are we supposed to assume it's
the same entity?

242
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,560
Probably.
But this one more played on.

243
00:12:43,560 --> 00:12:46,200
I can't really see what's there.
I know there's something there

244
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,560
behind you.
And then as soon as you go to

245
00:12:49,560 --> 00:12:52,000
try to perceive it, it kills you
automatically.

246
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:53,760
I don't know how it kills you.
It just like crushes you and

247
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,080
throws you in the air.
Terrifying, but you know, if

248
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,840
this is a clock face, you die at
midnight.

249
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,800
I think that was just such
clever writing to be like just

250
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,520
calling back to the name of the
planet.

251
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,200
If we're going to say like if
you ever try to perceive

252
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,240
somebody from behind, I mean,
and shoot you with that booty,

253
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:15,240
it's like Killa all right,
enough within shooty's booty.

254
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:16,560
All right, but I.
Couldn't stop staring at it.

255
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:17,280
There.
I said it.

256
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:18,760
I couldn't stop staring at it.
It was beautiful.

257
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,720
It was glorious.
You know, he's just he's just

258
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,360
working it.
Anyway, sorry, I think this

259
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,960
there's also a comparison for
these two episodes of kind of

260
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:33,360
like childhood games, right?
It feels like in in, in the in

261
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,800
midnight, it feels very much
like when someone's parroting

262
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,920
you.
Whereas in this one, it's almost

263
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:40,400
like a red light, green light
thing.

264
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,800
Like if you get caught at the
wrong time then you're out,

265
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,640
you're going to die.
One of the things I also liked.

266
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,720
So I actually watched the well
before I watched Midnight As.

267
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,040
Soon as we saw, I said, Derek,
you need to watch Midnight.

268
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,280
Absolutely.
And so there was that point in

269
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,400
this episode where the doctor is
talking.

270
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:59,880
He's he's very close to Alice
and Alice and he, there's a

271
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:01,960
close up of his face and his
eyes are really wide and he

272
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,360
starts to cry.
It's when he realizes who he's

273
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,040
dealing with.
And that is such a callback to

274
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,040
Midnight, where the doctor is
stuck in that Crouch.

275
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,280
He's absolutely frozen, and his
eyes are so wide.

276
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,560
It's like you can see that he's
losing control of who he is.

277
00:14:16,680 --> 00:14:18,800
But on the inside, he knows
what's going on.

278
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,920
What's so terrifying about this
specific entity with Midnight is

279
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:28,720
that it was one of the few
Preachers entities whatever to

280
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:33,120
defeat the Doctor.
The Doctor didn't even beat this

281
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,920
entity twice.
Both times people had to

282
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,920
sacrifice themselves and the
Doctor got out of it.

283
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,160
And so that's what is so scary
about this.

284
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,960
And that's why when the Doctor
found out that this, wait, this

285
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,320
had the surface was made out of
diamonds, what was this planet

286
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:48,960
called?
Midnight.

287
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,720
That's why he got so scared and
ran back to where Alice was.

288
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:58,960
And I think very few creatures
or entities have the honor, I

289
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,480
guess, of saying I could be the
Doctor and I know the Doctor's

290
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,360
name.
So This is why it's so scary

291
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,800
because we also know nothing
about this entity.

292
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,560
And I was really worried.
I, I did hear rumors that this

293
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,280
was going to be a Midnight
sequel.

294
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,520
There was rumors that it might
be a Waters and Mars sequel.

295
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,480
And I was like, OK, those are
some big episodes to fill.

296
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,280
And that worried me because I
don't think Midnight needed a

297
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:23,080
sequel.
This is the best we can come to

298
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,320
for a sequel for something like
that because we still don't know

299
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,160
anything and I'm very happy
about.

300
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,200
That and it feels like more of a
companion episode rather than a

301
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,400
sequel, right?
It's not the same storyline.

302
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,440
It's just taking place on the
same planet.

303
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,640
And I think, like you're saying
that was a good choice, right?

304
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,920
Especially if an episode is so
beloved, you know, let's not

305
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,200
marred up by trying to change
the storyline or continue it.

306
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,720
Yeah, and that episode was so
well perceived that I believe it

307
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,600
was made into a limited stage
run.

308
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:55,200
So it's cool all people just in
the same thing because it's such

309
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,080
a small cast and it's really
just the people that are driving

310
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,520
the pot and the paranoia.
OK, on the subject of Alice,

311
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:05,480
which I think absolutely
breakout performance, an all

312
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:09,760
timer for a guest appearance
performance by this actor, the

313
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,760
use of assistive technology.
So freaking cool.

314
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,160
Leave it to Doctor Who,
especially in this new revival

315
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,760
run with Russell D Davies, to
like have more, I guess,

316
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,280
assistive technology, but also
like including people with with

317
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,640
impairments or disabilities.
I really loved the use of just

318
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:32,400
like a real time caption device.
Why don't we have that now?

319
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:36,400
I know well there are, there is
some technology being developed

320
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,360
more like glasses and things
that can do that, which is just

321
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,120
incredible.
And I mean, just think of how

322
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,960
communication can change and how
travel can change and how

323
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,200
inclusive we could be if
something like that did exist

324
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:50,800
and if we were all willing to
have something like that, which

325
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,000
whatever anyway.
And, and I think that there's

326
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:58,440
also a point being made here
where they turn it off when they

327
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,520
don't want Alice to know what
they're saying.

328
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,680
And so they are choosing to
exclude her from the

329
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:05,920
conversation.
And granted, it happens because

330
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,359
they're trying to figure out
what's going on.

331
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,280
They don't know if she's truly
trustworthy.

332
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,880
But in reality, there is just
something being said here about

333
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:17,440
how we are include and exclude
people with disabilities in our

334
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,240
lives and society and
conversations.

335
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,040
And on purpose.
And on purpose, exactly because

336
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,880
it's too much trouble, quote UN
quote, you know, to to wear

337
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,200
something on you that could
help.

338
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,560
You know, I also like that in
this episode we see someone with

339
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,560
a limb difference.
One of our troopers has a limb

340
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:34,920
difference, which is really
incredible.

341
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,640
I mean, just all around this
episode just shows how well

342
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,520
Doctor Who is included, like
just how good it is at

343
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,840
inclusivity.
Yeah, yeah, I loved.

344
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,600
I don't know why this is like
such a funny coincidence, but

345
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:53,120
the actor that played Alice's
name Rose, their real name is

346
00:17:53,120 --> 00:17:57,480
Rose, which just goes back to
this is David Tennant's like era

347
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,520
the sequel which also had to do
with Rose and she doesn't make

348
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,160
an appearance on ATV screen
behind him.

349
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,320
And I don't know, it's just like
such a weird coincidence that

350
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,280
only Doctor Who could have.
Absolutely.

351
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:12,080
What did you think of?
So I'm kind of going back and

352
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,480
forth on this, right.
One of the reasons that it seems

353
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:19,880
that Alice has survived is
because of her her deafness.

354
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,600
And so it's like, oh, well, you
can't hear it.

355
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:27,920
But I was kind of hoping that in
a way, it wasn't going to be the

356
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,120
thing that saved her.
It was just going to be a part

357
00:18:30,120 --> 00:18:31,760
of her.
But then it became part of the

358
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,080
plot.
What did you think of that?

359
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,600
I don't know if that's
necessarily true though, because

360
00:18:37,120 --> 00:18:40,280
I mean, OK, if it's behind you,
right, it latches on.

361
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,360
This is a little different than
what we saw in midnight and

362
00:18:42,360 --> 00:18:44,680
Midnight kind of just possessed
and this one, it just more

363
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,440
latched on.
I don't know if that's evolution

364
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:51,720
or just what it really does, but
I think the doctor had said, and

365
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,800
I could be wrong, he said that's
might that might be how you

366
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,400
survived because you're just not
hearing it.

367
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,320
But I don't know if just hearing
it really does anything to you,

368
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,480
you know what I mean?
Because like regardless, if you

369
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,920
go behind and you try to
perceive the monster, you're

370
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,600
dead anyway.
So I think that's just like

371
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:12,840
added to like, maybe that's why
she didn't lose her mind almost

372
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,280
because it was whispering to
her.

373
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,320
I I hope, right, that that's how
I read it because I was like,

374
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:22,160
oh, I don't think they really
made it like her deafness saved

375
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:23,720
her.
But that's also not a bad thing.

376
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,760
I guess in that light, you know,
it's like, oh, yeah.

377
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,800
Because because she happened to
be deaf, it did end up helping

378
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,000
her.
I did like the added effect of,

379
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:34,760
you know, this the reflection,
right?

380
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:36,480
It didn't want to see its own
reflection because I would

381
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,240
defeat itself using the mercury
waterfall.

382
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,200
Oh, that just looks so cool.
This whole set, just everything,

383
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,320
the visual effects really just
like peak.

384
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,240
And I think when you have like
this big budget like this and

385
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,280
you have performance like this.
Oh, the performance is just

386
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,760
shine so much.
But yeah, I think her sorry, I

387
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,760
didn't mean to like segue from
that, but I I think her deafness

388
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,640
was I don't think it was used as
like a plot device.

389
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,240
I think it just added to the
story.

390
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:03,920
All right, that's fair.
I appreciate that.

391
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:08,240
But yeah, I agree that mercury
waterfall was so cool.

392
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,440
And again, this is something
that they did with a lighter

393
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,960
hand than they do sometimes.
Learning that Shia is an amazing

394
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,520
shot, right?
It kind of just happened in the

395
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,880
scene before and then the doctor
realized it.

396
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,520
It wasn't like, you know, oh,
you were an incredible Marx

397
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,800
person.
You know, it wasn't like over

398
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,960
explained in any way.
It was something that happened

399
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,400
and then it was used to, you
know, defeat the monster.

400
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,880
Yeah, I so before we get to like
kind of like the end of the

401
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,200
episode of wrapping up a review,
there's two scenes in particular

402
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,560
that I really want to talk about
that I think really stand out.

403
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,000
While I like the clock facing
scene, which I'm going to say is

404
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,480
when everybody was in that room
in a circle and I loved, loved

405
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,520
when the entity was killing
them, that they're replacing

406
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:54,120
them as numbers on the clock,
which just, you know, it's just

407
00:20:54,120 --> 00:20:56,360
so cool.
But there's two scenes that I

408
00:20:56,360 --> 00:21:01,120
think we're so, so, so good is
when they're going to the escape

409
00:21:01,120 --> 00:21:04,560
pods or going to the things that
get them back up there and the

410
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,400
entity possesses them again,
right?

411
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,960
So you have Alice and the two
other troopers that go, right?

412
00:21:10,360 --> 00:21:13,760
And then you have the doctor,
you have MO, you have Belinda,

413
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,320
and you have Shia, and the
entity comes back and possesses

414
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,720
one of them.
The amount of fear and trying to

415
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,800
figure out who is possessed in
that scene.

416
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:24,640
And then it ended up being
Belinda.

417
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:29,000
Then Shia had to use her shots
to shoot Belinda, and then they

418
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,280
had to revive her.
And then Shia sacrifices herself

419
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,000
in this scene.
Do you think because we find out

420
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,800
that MO, possibly, I don't know
if it's just because they're

421
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:42,520
paranoid, actually was the one
possessed?

422
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,360
Do you think that Belinda was
shot for no reason and Shia

423
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,520
sacrificed herself for no
reason?

424
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,280
Absolutely, 100%.
I do.

425
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,040
Absolutely, I do.
Yeah.

426
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:56,480
That was definitely a bummer
because Shia was I, I really

427
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,720
warmed up to Shia.
I really liked them.

428
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,080
I thought they were a fantastic
leader.

429
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,320
I thought that they were smart,
level headed and to see them

430
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,440
sacrifice themselves, it felt
like, OK, it's a poetic way to

431
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,920
go out, but for it to be for
naughty, that was a bummer.

432
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,880
You know, I think Belinda had to
be shot in order for Shia to

433
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:18,800
then be, what are we saying
inhabited, latched on by, you

434
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,720
know, grabbed on by the by the
entity.

435
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:27,880
So that made sense.
But I think that Shia definitely

436
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:34,480
sacrifice himself in vain.
Unfortunately, I'm curious if I,

437
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:39,480
I I want to believe that Belinda
was was latched onto possessed

438
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,120
in the beginning, but I think
when it when it showed the wind

439
00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:47,200
go across Shia's face, I think
then it went to MO just to mess

440
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,920
with them.
Like I I'm not sure that Shia

441
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,840
ever was actually possessed.
I think it just went straight to

442
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,760
MO and that I just think that
might be this entity is smarter

443
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,320
than we believe.
I mean, it knows the doctor's

444
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,160
name, you know, it's been inside
the doctor's head.

445
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,800
So I don't think it's dumb.
I just, you know, that's just

446
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:08,960
like peak Doctor Who of just
like devastating, like, Oh no,

447
00:23:09,120 --> 00:23:12,920
like that's that sucks.
At least Shia doesn't know the

448
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,320
truth right?
And their sacrifice, they

449
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,800
believe they did it and solved
the issue and saved everyone.

450
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,600
So there's that poetic justice.
But but that scene with the

451
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:24,480
poetic.
Justice.

452
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,320
That scene it it with the four
of them in kind of like the

453
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,640
escape pod room is again, felt
like a call back to midnight,

454
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,600
right?
It's a smaller encapsulated

455
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,680
space.
Something is in there with them

456
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,520
and they're trying to figure out
what's going on.

457
00:23:38,120 --> 00:23:40,040
But yeah, that was a bummer when
Belinda got shot.

458
00:23:40,360 --> 00:23:43,680
Yeah, I mean, Yikes.
You know, having her get shot.

459
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,840
She was shot.
You know, she looked like she

460
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,760
was hurt.
I did like that in this episode,

461
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,600
we saw Belinda Belinda's a
nurse, right?

462
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,120
And loves being a nurse and
loves caring for people, and we

463
00:23:55,120 --> 00:23:59,400
saw her step into action.
I like that she's not a fearful

464
00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,520
companion, that she's willing to
get in there and help people.

465
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,080
This is the second time we've
seen her do this.

466
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,120
We saw her do it in the first
episode and now in this episode

467
00:24:07,120 --> 00:24:09,600
as well.
Yeah, she, I love the just the

468
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,360
tension of the entire scene, the
doctors with the leaders and

469
00:24:12,360 --> 00:24:13,720
stuff and trying to figure out
the well.

470
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,840
And then Belinda's there trying
to care for this person while

471
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,200
also being paranoid and seeing
something, but not really seeing

472
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,560
something.
And like trying to figure out

473
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:25,400
this alien technology or this
alien medicine, but also being

474
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,000
confused by nobody knows what
Earth is.

475
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:28,720
So there's just a lot of moving
parts here.

476
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:32,440
And I think Varadasath, who did
such an amazing job of balancing

477
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,440
all of that.
Absolutely, I will say.

478
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,440
So there's something I went back
to look at it.

479
00:24:38,120 --> 00:24:42,240
I'm more convinced that the
entity went back up with the

480
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,880
first people because when you
look at the thing that says how

481
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,640
many people are in the thing,
because it only says 6 people

482
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,360
can be in at a time.
It says 4, but there was only

483
00:24:51,360 --> 00:24:53,840
three of them that we could see
they're staying.

484
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,880
I think it was still attached to
maybe Alyssa.

485
00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,240
Wow, yeah.
And now so it's just on the

486
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,320
ship.
So that leaves it up to just,

487
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,440
it's still there.
So we either have the potential

488
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:09,520
for a sequel or, I don't know,
it's just out there.

489
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,560
And is there something to be
said that maybe there's more

490
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,520
than one entity?
We don't know anything about

491
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,320
this.
Is it a Pantheon member?

492
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,880
Was it trapped there in the
diamonds for a reason?

493
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,280
I don't know who.
Knows does it crawl on our all

494
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:23,760
fours?
Is it bipedal?

495
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,040
I don't know.
It's kind of like creeping

496
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,040
around the corner, you know,
just they just gave you.

497
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,440
Glimpses.
The thing about it, though, is

498
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,120
like they gave you glimpses of
something.

499
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,720
You couldn't make it out, you
know, we got that very brief

500
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,600
shadowy thing which I think is
the most we've ever seen of this

501
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,800
entity.
But like, I don't want I I it

502
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:45,040
was so frustrating because when
you saw it behind Alyssa, it was

503
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,680
like you couldn't your brain
just it was too fast.

504
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,600
Like I was like, ah, there was
something it.

505
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,480
Was kind of funny, right, That
it would kind of just be like,

506
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,720
and then it would disappear
again.

507
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,720
Like it was like, it was like
playing with everyone.

508
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:00,880
It's like I'm here.
Yeah.

509
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,920
You can't do anything.
It's just like what is

510
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,800
happening?
What is it showing itself so

511
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,080
much?
Yeah, I think I might have.

512
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,840
You said you had two scenes.
You wanted to talk.

513
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,240
About I kind of talked about
them both in the oh, OK, OK, OK.

514
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:16,000
It was then MO up in the ship
and having that conversation

515
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,280
with the other person that was
on their team.

516
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,800
Because we didn't really see
anything behind MO.

517
00:26:22,120 --> 00:26:25,400
And I'm more convinced that
maybe it's still attached to

518
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,200
Alyssa, which is really sad
because she has a daughter and

519
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,440
she just wants to get back home.
Oh, Alice, Alice.

520
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,160
Alice, am I saying Alyssa?
Yes, yes.

521
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,680
You guys know what I'm talking
about.

522
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:38,520
Sorry, Alice.
And you know, I it might still

523
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,360
be attached to her, but I'm I
think the paranoia just

524
00:26:41,360 --> 00:26:45,000
continued with them and they're
just fearful of it, which is

525
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:50,040
another layer of just kind of
you know, but this episode

526
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,320
wouldn't be complete without
missus flood appearance.

527
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,640
What I just and she's after the
vindicator or she wants to know

528
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,600
more about it.
She said that's what I feared.

529
00:27:00,120 --> 00:27:04,200
So what?
And what's this felt more like

530
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:09,760
Susan Twist in the way that like
she's not just misses Flood kind

531
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,840
of appearing in places she's
taking on.

532
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,560
It's almost like she has her own
TARDIS, right, where she can

533
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,840
change her clothes and be a part
of the the group that's there.

534
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,360
Because she kind of looked like
she was from the 50s in Miami

535
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,720
and now she had a uniform on
when MO was talking to her.

536
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:26,360
So that's interesting.
Right.

537
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:29,840
I mean, yeah, I I have no idea.
She she can time travel with

538
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,040
them.
She's always there either in the

539
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,000
beginning or the end of their
episode or their story.

540
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,000
So that's weird.
And she does seem like a Susan

541
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,160
twist.
Like now that you say that, that

542
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:43,280
is kind of interesting that now
she's kind of taking the place

543
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,360
of Susan twist because do that
in the first season she didn't

544
00:27:46,360 --> 00:27:49,280
really appear in places like
that.

545
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:54,080
She was always with Ruby's
apartment around there, so she

546
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,480
wasn't necessarily anywhere else
aside from the end of the

547
00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:58,880
season.
She was on the rooftop and all

548
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,640
the all white.
So this is weird.

549
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,360
It was almost like they liked
the Susan twist thing and was

550
00:28:04,360 --> 00:28:07,320
like, OK, let's make Misses
Flood kind of take that.

551
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,600
But I I.
Think the difference is that the

552
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,920
Susan Twist character was more
of like a a Belinda in the sense

553
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,560
that she just kind of existed in
these different timelines,

554
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:19,720
whereas this seems like Missus
Flood is following them and keep

555
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,080
track of them and knows exactly
what's going on.

556
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:23,240
Right?
It is Missus Flood.

557
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,280
It's not multiple different
Susan's, you know.

558
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,240
Yeah, I have no idea.
I don't.

559
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,320
I mean, there's so many theories
that it could be whoever it is.

560
00:28:33,120 --> 00:28:35,200
I don't know at this point.
I just want to wait and see.

561
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,000
Yeah.
So I mean.

562
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,320
The question is, what is Russell
T Davies saying about old women?

563
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,440
That they can.
Act and they deserve a job, you

564
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,480
know.
No, he's saying that.

565
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,760
They're going to take over the
world and bring us all down.

566
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,640
Yeah, sure.
That's if that's if Misses Flood

567
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,680
is actually bad.
We still don't know.

568
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,720
She's not really done anything
bad.

569
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,000
I don't know.
I don't trust her.

570
00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,160
She's just commentating.
What she's doing all right.

571
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,520
We should Maybe.
Maybe she's a scorned companion.

572
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:04,800
Maybe.
Right.

573
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,920
She could be, Or she's the
doctor's granddaughter.

574
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,880
Oh my.
God, we still never got.

575
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,240
Anything off of that, they were
right there.

576
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,600
I don't know, It's it's too
convenient.

577
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,600
Still mysteries.
Abound.

578
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,720
Absolutely.
OK, well.

579
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:21,560
Let us know what you thought of
the well.

580
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,520
Was it everything you hoped for?
Did you like it?

581
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:25,640
Did you not like it?
Did it hit?

582
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,280
Did it not hit?
Would you wear one of those

583
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:30,840
space outfits?
I know I would.

584
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:33,720
Just to feel nice.
Just to feel pretty.

585
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,000
Yeah.
All right, Till next time.

586
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,360
Bye.
