Doctor Who

I cannot process this episode. Like at all. It has blown my mind hole and I just want to run around screaming, WHAT? No, seriously, WTF WHAT? I do need to re watch this but...WHAT?!!

The thing that has me the most confused is River. So, she was a data ghost from the library? Has she been there the entire time the eleventh doctor has had the TARDIS? Is she always just floating around, watching him and her parents? Or, was it just a link from Vastra and she somehow maintained it to stay linked to Clara ergo to stay linked to the Doctor? Or is she like projecting herself there from the libarary?  Like was this the last adventure they ever had? From her pov? She was "put on a shelf" by him, what does that mean? That he knew she was data ghosting or whatever, but he chose to ignore it, cause it hurt him? So River just knocked about until he was ready to deal with her? Cause I don't know how to feel about that.

I am not ready to say bye to River. I need to see him give her the screwdriver and to tell her his name. I would really love a ep where it's just the two of them. Which would then rip me to pieces, I'm sure. Cause this ep sure as hell did. I want to cry thinking he couldn't deal with being a part from her, so he just didn't acknoweldge it. And then when he caught her arm...and the I always see you/hear you...THE KISS. OMG THE KISS. Please kiss for reals River like that. I can't handle another of my ships having fakey kisses. I DIED when that happened. Just, yeah, dude, you go kiss your wife like that. :p
but then they ripped my heart out when she faded away and said goodbye sweetie. NO. Oh god my heart. So, she hung around to get a proper goodbye from him? That is so selfish of him, he must have hurt her when he was ignoring her, and she just wanted to rest in peace and he couldn't give her that, cause he can't deal with her death. DUDE. Give your wife some comfort. ( I mean he did but still)

My heart and brain exploded over this episode. Clara hanging out with the old Doctors was so COOL. They are really hyping up the 50th no? I don't know how I feel about her always being a part of him, but at least we know why he's so drawn to her. I feel so bad for her, how many times has she died and been reborn? Will that keep happening forever or until he does eventually die? Now that she knows all of this, will she just constantly have updated memories? Like, oh hey, we're going to do this someday, etc. I don't know how to feel about anything. I NEED HELP REACTING TO STUFF if I can paraphrase Abed. :)

As for the end- DUDE. What the hell did he do? Who was that guy? I like some of the theories about him being from the Time War and we know the Doctor isn't happy with what he had to do there (Ten angst over it enough). Huh. i...just...is it November yet? It'll probably take me until then to fully understand this episode! Hee.
