Got Stuff Done Today

I got my homework done today, and I thought I was all the way through it all...only to find out I have more to do tomorrow. I also got some other major errands completed so I think tomorrow the only thing I have to do is that other homework.

Been sore today; it finally rained tonight so I feel a bit better.

I didn't get anything done on Prince Within today, as I was unable to think of anything really good to write down. Tomorrow I'll set myself down for an hour and really let my imagination run wild.

For tonight, I am happily watching David Tennant go psycho because he's figured out how to rescue River. Love that scene...

Tomorrow is the beginning of the end of season 4. Yikes. Notes from last week will be posted at the bottom of this entry.

Kris is fixing my DVD creating software because the stuff I had wasn't working for what I needed. He's particularly good at tricking the computer into doing what he wants, whereas I get hung up on little system flaws and problems.

That's about it for me. Let's get to the fun, shall we?

Ta,

The TARDIS is all red inside again like it was last year. A paradox created? Where and how and who's going to have to pay for it? And the Cloister bell was going off. These, people, are NOT good things. They mean trouble. They mean war. They mean his TARDIS is probably going to light on fire from all the bad things (in fact it will.)

But the Doctor's still alive (although technically he never died because the mistake in time was reversed,) so I don't know where he goes off to next episode. It looks like EVERYONE is coming in from ALL the spinoffs...aren't things going to be crowded? Let's see:

Gwen
Ianto
Jack
Sarah-Jane
Luke, SJ's adopted son
Donna
Rose
Jackie Tyler
Mickey
Jake?
Pete?
Martha

Geez.

It appears the Daleks have invaded Earth, presumably under the orders of the Red Dalek and Davros. I caught a glimpse of Gwen and Ianto shooting and shooting at the damned things, plus the full-scale invasion fleet of a size that we haven't seen since Season 1's end.

Will the Doctor and Rose be reunited? She seemed to know a hell of a lot about a hell of a lot, so Rose has either been time-traveling without the Doctor or she's got something to hide (I betcha she has special powers...)

Does Rose have powers left over from the Time Vortex?

Is Rose doomed?(forget Donna. She's already died once. Are they going to kill her AGAIN?)

Do the bees and planets vanishing have anything to do with this? (Donna's mum seemed to think so)

Did the Ood prediction of the song ending for the Doctor come true two episodes ago with River’s death, will it come true here, or is that prediction coming true later?

Is Pete Tyler dead?

What about Rose’s sibling?

What’s up with the constant Medusa Cascade references? The Master referred to it last year. Evelina brought it up when she said the Doctor's name was hidden in the Pompeii episode. The Doctor himself mentioned taking Donna to a moon in it somewhere in one of the Sontaran episodes. And then he threw it out there again in episode 10 when talking to Skye.

Davies has said this is a big part of what's happening, and since the Medusa Cascade is a time rift that the Doctor closed up some time ago, it's important and I still don't know why...

Gallifrey, at least the version that the Doctor knew, was destroyed. Kapoofka. There's not much here that we know; it's a painful subject for the Doctor seeing as he's the one who's responsible for it burning. The Daleks had taken the Cruciform; the Time Lords were losing the battle. The only solution was to have the Doctor roast Gallifrey, committing what appeared to be mass genocide of both Daleks and Time Lords. Nothing remained except the Doctor.

We don't know what happened to the Eighth Doctor-we only know that Nine appears in London in "Rose" but we don't know what happened to the previous guy. Nine does look in a mirror at one point and grump about his ears as if he hasn't seen them before, but we have no clue how long the Doctor has been in that particular body.

People have assumed (probably quite accurately) that Eight was the one who went into the battle between the Daleks and the Time Lords. He must have had to be close to push the button, so it's fair to assume he got hurt pretty badly trying to get out of there (or maybe he wasn't trying and the TARDIS yanked him out.) I can see the Doctor wanting to go down with Gallifrey, especially since Eight was such a drama queen; he must have barely escaped the destruction alive. He probably is still marveling (sometimes) that he is alive, probably still wondering why he is. Besides, who wants to survive when you're the one who blew everyone else up? Who wants to live with being the killer of his own kind?

Or something at the time might have saved him, knowing he still had so much to do...Rose? Donna? Medusa Cascade? Shadow Proclamation?

Eight must have been wounded enough, along with his TARDIS, to regenerate into Nine and the current TARDIS configuration (I assume that since Eight was mortally wounded the TARDIS was damaged a bit in the fight as well. Would explain the change of the "desktop theme.") Still no idea how much time passed after that regeneration but it must not have been long for him. Or he just hadn't been able to look at himself in a mirror due to the terrible guilt in his hearts.

2. Who dies: Donna or Rose? Or is it both of them? In my mind, Rose is literally lying beneath the ax, but Donna's odds aren't looking too pretty either. It'd be just like Davies to not kill one companion, but two.

Somebody is gonna die. In a spoiler-filled news report that I didn't read anything of except the headline, which read that the Doctor Who heroes would be crying. Who was crying, what they were crying about, or when this sobfest would occur I didn't find out.

3: Bad Wolf: Rose is Bad Wolf. We know this. She threw out a message to the Doctor at the end of episode 11 telling him the end of the universe was coming...hence the stars are still going out and bad stuff is going down.

4. Shadow Proclamation: The Doctor's invoked this more than once to try and get alien species to behave themselves, starting with the first episode and I really don't remember when he last referred to it, but it was definitely this year (Partners in Crime?) We're going to see the Shadow Proclamation, whether it be a bunch of bureaucrats or a piece of paper.

So:

Gallifrey restored? Or will the Doctor be forced into a decision between Earth existing or Gallifrey restored? (nasty decision)

Who dies? Rose? Donna? Jackie? Mickey?

Apparently the Doctor's little rebel group gets caught at some point because they've talked about standing in front of the Daleks already.

What is the Shadow Proclamation?

What happened to Eight that made him Nine?

Time War? Will we get a full story on what happened?

Earth gets moved. Why and are they going to move it back?

What and when was the Medusa Cascade?

What is so deadly about the Red Dalek?

Does Rose have superpowers? Is Bad Wolf about to rise again?

Has the Doctor's song ended already or are we still waiting on that bit?
