Ha! Doctor in a cake. The right cake,
this time.
Oooh, nice bit of slightly threatening on “I like it better when someone says it’s bigger on the inside . . . I always look forward to that”.
“According to this, I’m your eunuch.”
“Oh, yeah. I’ll explain later.”
Ha! The Doctor can be a bit petty sometimes, can’t he.
Vampires, but they were out in the sun? I mean, veils yes, but also – daylight! Hmmm. Aliens, I’m betting!
She just wants a bit of an adventure before she marries you. Or, you know, instead. Why should that make you nervous or cranky, eh?
No reflection! Classic vampy good times! “How are you
doing that? I am
loving it!”
“I have a thing about guns and huge quantities of explosives.”
“Makes you wonder what would be so bad it doesn’t actually mind us thinking it’s a vampire.” Indeed!
“I’m a gondola . . . driver. So . . . money’s a bit tight.” “Join your school for special people.” OMG, such a wonderful horrible job of lying! Ha!
Going undercover as a Daughter of Dracula? BAD idea!
“Yours is bigger than mine.”
“Let’s not go there.”
A UV light is a good idea.
“You make them want to impress you. They don’t want to let you down.” He’s got a point there.
“There are 10,000 husbands waiting for you in the water.” (Water? Hmmm.)
“Yeah, sorry. I’m kind of engaged.”
And then, like every classic wise-cracking heroine/hero, she kicks some ass! Or rather, kicks some hip – which is where the alien-bug-lizard-real-visual-hiding-device is!
“This rescue plan. Not exactly watertight is it?” First, you’re right – and yet still it seems to be working, eh? Second – water seems to figure into your vocabulary a lot, missy.
“They’re not vampires! They’re aliens”
“That is good news!”
“What is wrong with you people?!”
HA!
What’re the bitey things in the water, hey?
Refugee, like her. That makes him pause, for just a second.
“Where are you from?”
“Gallifrey.”
“You should be in a museum.”
Ouch!
The cracks, again.
“I’m a Time Lord. You’re a big fish. Think of the children!” HA!
Classic thing that always pisses off the Doctor, big time. Callous disregard for the other living beings that are in the way of what you want to do. So, sympathy for wanting to save your people, but why do it by killing off the others, eh?
Damaged perception filter – HA!
“She’s got 10,000 children swimming around the canals, waiting for mum to make them some compatible girlfriends! . . . Ewwggg. I mean, I’ve been around a bit, but really, that’s . . . that’s . . . . ewwww.”
“They’re not vampires. Fish from space.”
Oh, he’s going to blow them up, with himself.
Send Amy and fiancé to safety, only not so much. And she taunts him with the classic “why so upset about one city when you’ve killed whole worlds, etc.”. Like that’s gonna make him less likely to fight you. Oy!
Nice taunting, fiancé! And then he and Amy get rid of fish-boy!
Alien environment device is rather nicely steam-punk, with the gears and spinning and what not.
But, you didn’t have to all die as a race. The Doctor could have found you a non-populated place to go, couldn’t he have? Some nice watery fishy place that you could have lived in without having to kill others to have.
Silence and cracks again.
