What was Mikey Thinking?

  War of the Sontarans notes Opening with the cloister bell and no visual was a strong start What is that house that looks like the poster for Cabin in the woods. The Doctor says end of the universe. Doctor, Yaz and Dan all woke upk in the crimean with no idea what happened when they hit the flux.   They’re assuming they bounced off the flux and got kicked back in time.   Is that really true Mary thinks they’re battlefield scavengers Mary:   Doctor’s a mans term Doctor:   It’s fluid 1885 Crimean war Mary Seacole? She doesn’t know the word Russians.   The Russians have been substituted by the Sontarans. I don’t love the new design A Sontaran on a horse is cute though.   Did Linx ride one? Vinder’s escape pod has ended up where…? Are you response.   Canm you repair?   The flux impacted the inner temple.   What does any of that mean? Priest Triangles.   Interesting The Mouri are the people in the circl...

  Speakeasy does it notes Not a great idea to driver Hoover’s car into town Zari’s taking ownership of the phantom house.   Why aren’t all but one of them just hanging out there.   Much less conspicuous Gary overtips.   That’s a good thing Wig shopping. They genuinely are surprised by the racism toward Zari.   That’s a privileged perspective See, should’ve ditched hoover’s car Why aren’t they just beating up the salesman. They could always rob another bank, right?   Should’ve taken extra from the first ojne Their priority is to not be blondes at the moment. The Sapphire String – The password is password This was an exercise in stripping them of their resources The guy let them in because he bnonded with what Zari was saying, not just because she tripped on the password. I hadn’t even noticed how far the Legends have gone from the mostly white male original crew Eddie’s club is running low on drinks Love the guy is in drag in ...

  1917 Patrol notes Who’s doing the narrating? Nice Wizard of Oz effect out the porthole Did Rita just forget that time travelling wipes your memory? *** When was the last time she followed her bliss? So was that how Mme Rouge’s memories were purges too?   By reliving and purging her memories? Iowa 1917 Love the clumsy way that Rita gets out of the ship Betty Ann Bucklestone takes Rita’s appearance well in stride Funny that the first thing you have to do after time travelling is pee The bureau of Normalcy is right on the scene to investigate April Bowlby is playing this subtly differently now that Rita is unburdened by her past The Brain and Monsieur Mallah! Paul is just muttering nonsense.   Makes sense given the assault by dada Jane is smuggling Kay out to be in control.    How does physically buying shoes for the conceptual alter personality actually work. The Brain is now going to reverse engineer the design for a time machine...

  Guideon Not found notes Astra, Spooner and Gideon are walking to NYC.   Or to the highway to hitchhike The gag of Spooner knowing to do things by the sun is pretty cute Strawberry Rhubarb is Astra’s favorite.   Gross. Astra and Spooner are extra bickery here It’s Schroedinger’s pie theft Gideon: That pie is historically significant Astra starts out having difficulty recognizing Gideon to be a person What are Spooner’s powers exactly So they’re going int oGideon’s mind and only Gideon can lead them out It’s nice that it’s the two newest Legends wih the least history with Gideon who are exploring her mind Franz gets to use his real accent! All the old logos in the brief credits was a sweet touch Oh fuck, not Bishop again Ah well, at least it’s the tolerable version of him Bishop’s brain wipe doesn’t appear to have taken.   He’s getting lfashbacks. Earlier Bishop has Gideon’s operating code – he brought a copy of her hard drive back i...
