Paradox Talks: Doctor Who Season 8 Episode 13: Last Christmas. · 4:19am Oct 2nd, 2015
Oh my goodness. . .this episode. . .
I do not kid, I loved it.
We start with Clara who wakes up due to a noise outside.
It turns out the noise is Santa and his Elves.
Santa. . .SANTA!
The Doctor shows up and asks Clara if she believes.
We then transfer to a base in the north pole where a group of four are monitoring another group of four that have things on their faces.
During a test, the Doctor and Clara arrive and breaks the concentration of the woman doing the test.
Suddenly, weird crabs drop down from the ceiling and Santa shows up to blow a hole in the wall.
Everybody freaks out, and the lead scientist explains to the Doctor what they know.
Clara confesses that Danny Pink is dead, and tries to think about him as another crab (now called a Dream Crab) works it's way towards her.
She wakes to find herself spending Christmas with Danny, while the Doctor keeps trying to wake her.
Then the Doctor allows a Crab to latch to him to join Clara's dream. Danny tells Clara to wake.
After Clara and the Doctor wake, they realize they're still dreaming. Santa says "Duh." and tells the whole group to wake up.
They do and Clara and the Doctor go to leave, only to stop as Clara asks why Santa was on her roof.
The Doctor and Clara go back inside the facility and tells the group of four that the four sleeping scientists are themselves.
After trying and failing to wake, they call Santa to save them from the part of their minds that have already surrendered.
It's revealed that no one was a scientist, and everyone wakes.
The Doctor goes to Clara's house, and pulls the crab off her face. It's revealed that she's now 62 years older. We get a touching moment with them before the Doctor turns and sees Santa (again), who tells the Doctor to hurry and wake.
He does, and then asks Clara to come with him. She says yes, and the episode ends.
I LUV IT! ALL OF IT!
Now, I have a new favorite quote:
"I have three words for you, don't make me use them!" <---Santa
"What are they?" <---- Scientist girl I can't remember the name of.
"My Little Pony." <---- Santa
ALL THE YES!
