Season: 8 | Episode: 2 | BBC America Air Date: 30 August, 2014 A Dalek fleet surrounds a lone rebel ship, and only the Doctor can help them now… With the Doctor facing his greatest enemy, he needs Clara by his side. Confronted with a decision that could change the Daleks forever he is forced to examine his conscience. Will he find the answer to the question “am I a good man?”
So, it's been at least three weeks (from Clara's POV) since she sent the Doctor out for coffee and he got distracted...classic.
A new-ish teacher, who's ex-military has started at Clara's school: Danny Pink.
Danny Pink cries when a student asks him if he had to kill anyone who wasn't a soldier.
Journey Blue. Danny Pink. Is there a theme starting?? I'm sure this will be important later.
Rusty the Dalek.
Clara slapping the Doctor.
The Doctor giving up one soldier to the Dalek antibodies so they can have more time.
The Doctor's pure hatred for the Daleks backfires on his "mind meld" moment with Rusty and turns him into just a different version of evil Dalek -- wanting to exterminate ALL Daleks. Not a Victory in the Doctor's eyes.
...and that's all I have for right now.

I thought that was an interesting touch. THe Doctor thought the mind meld would expose him to the wonders of the universe, but it was the darkness that shined through.

it was a good episode. i'm a little amazed at how quickly peter capaldi has grasped the character! which dr does he remind you of most? i'm seeing flashes of it, but i'm not sure. maybe several. damn but he's good! moffet deserves a butt load of credit for casting him. better than matt smith? i'm not ready to go there yet, but i'm very very impressed. the doctor is in!

I'm not sure if he reminds me more of the 1st or the 6th.
