Remembering the clues coming from earlier, the Doctor becomes aware that George is worried of being sent out by his "parents, " and that is what is causing many his other anxieties. The Doctor tells your Dad that he would need to go help his kid, but the Dad is understandably cautious considering the fact his son is surely an alien. However, just as George is all about to be overwhelmed with the Gigglers, the Dad arguements his way through and also rescues him, telling him that he loves him regardless of what he is, and that he can never send him aside. The Doctor, meanwhile, looks on approvingly as the Gigglers vanish.
This Doctor then meets way up with Amy and Rory for a second time, they board the TARDIS, and discuss where to visit next. As they communicate, their dialogue fades available, and we hear the ominous singing of the Gigglers again:
"Tick-tock goes the clock.even with the Doctor."
The final shot is of the onscreen data the Doctor downloaded on the Teselecta last episode, stating when and where he is because of die.
Developments:
Not a lot, really, save for reminding us of the Doctor's impending death within the last beat; this really was the definition of a "standalone event. " With that mentioned, the alien Tenza/George's reaction and terror with the word "Doctor" again works into your theme of the Doctor being considered to be a something to be terrified of as an alternative to a figure of benevolence. The Doctor also spent considerable time in the episode bragging about how many monsters he has fought against and defeated, even though here his or her final role was as being a healer rather than a new warrior. Finally, though, following a wardrobe change last week, the Doctor was to his "junior professor" clothing again. Possibly a meaningless change after a only once anomaly, but perhaps indicative associated with something more.
Impressions:
The best "monster" episode in the grand tradition analysts, as well as something of the meta homage to this show's legacy of children peeking from behind the sofa (or however, the bedspread). One thing I sort of realized in this occurrence, though kind of by inversion, is that Amy and especially Rory have a tendency to "suck up the oxygen" in numerous episodes and otherwise stop some guest characters out of developing properly. Here, by trapping them within the dollhouse early in this episode and giving these individuals only brief cutaway vistas, it allowed Gatiss to help develop the central dynamic considering the father, son, and Medical doctor, making for an intriguing story and also a touching finale. It's a fantastic change of pace through what has sometimes been normal lately. Not a vital episode on the overall mythology of the actual series, but certainly worth a look untreated merits.
