SJA - 1x02 - Revenge of the Slitheen, Part Two
I really love the background music for the show. :)
Sarah Jane uses perfume and sonic lipstick to escape the Slitheen. It's oddly appropriate, actually.
Luke: I found a secret room.
Maria: Not now!
Sarah Jane calls to let them know that, guess what, there are aliens...
"Yeah, I know."
Poor Sarah's starting to realize just how many people are depending on her.
Clyde's not the type to take "no" for an answer, I see.
There's a Judoon reference.
Hee! Poor Sarah Jane can't pronounce Raxicoricofallapatorius either.
Sarah: [startled realization] "Slitheen in Downing Street."
Luke: What?
Sarah: Something a friend said once.
"Call the army!"
Yes! Call UNIT! :-P
"Sarah Jane, I've done something really stupid."
And Luke just realized what he did.
"We bomb the school?" Methinks Clyde sounds a little too happy about that.
Maria: And how do we get past the Slitheen?
Clyde: We bomb them?
I think that he and Ace would get along very well. Fanfiction, please?
"Let's have a High School Musical moment."
And, of course, the power goes out just before Mr. Smith can tell them that the Slitheen's weakness is vinegar.
Radio: The Prime Minister has promised that the blackouts will not affect the UK...
[power goes out]
Alan: [dryly] Thank you, Prime Minister.
Clyde just figured out that vinegar's their weakness.
And there goes the sun.
Wow. I knew Elisabeth Sladen was short, but there's like an inch difference between her and the kids. And the kid who plays Luke is even taller than her, if I'm not mistaken.
Maria just killed that Slitheen.
And the rest of the Slitheen just teleported in.
Sarah: Why are you doing this?
Janine: The family came here once before, just a routine job. But they never came back.
Sarah: I think I might know what happened. Who happened.
Jeffrey: This planet will pay in blood. They were our family!
Sarah: And Luke is mine!
"What's a bluff?"
Of course, in the heat of the moment, Luke calls her "mum" and not "Sarah Jane."
The child's beamed out at the last minute.
"He was a child, twelve-years-old."
I notice that they don't mention that Carl was a twelve-year-old child before the Slitheen killed him and stole his skin. A little too dark for a kid's show, I guess.
Hee! UNIT to the rescue!
"Bye now, love to the Brig!"
I'd seriously kill for him to appear on the show sometime. I mean, it's the Brigadier!
Yeah, the kid who plays Luke is definitely taller than her. Was he taller than her in the special or has he grown since then? I'll have to rewatch sometime.
Sarah: That's how I got started, asking questions.
Clyde: But you never told me. How did you discover all this stuff? Aliens and things?
Sarah: I met this man called the Doctor. He was an alien too.
Clyde: What? Like a big green thing?
Sarah: No, he looked just like you and me. Except he was nothing like you and me. He took me out into space, far away from Earth.
Clyde: You traveled through space!?
Sarah: And time. I saw planets and galaxies and all sorts of creatures. Oh, things you would never imagine.
Clyde: So where is he now, this Doctor?
Sarah: Still out there. Still wandering. Still wonderful. And he left me behind with his legacy, I suppose. To help, and to protect, to make a stand, and to never give up.
I think that's one of the best descriptions I've heard of the Doctor.
Mr. Smith doesn't seem to like Clyde much. :-P
"Temporary reversal of the Earth's magnetic pulse."
Not quite "reverse the polarity," but it works.
Aw. Her face when he calls her "mum" is so sweet.
All in all, I think that I'm going to like the show. Yeah, there are a few times when it's obvious that it's for kids. There's a lot more to it than just that, though.
And I'm already getting fanfiction ideas. Harry, the Brigadier, Jo, Liz, Benton, UNIT, Torchwood getting their butts handed to them by SJ and three kids, Jack, Martha, [casting spoiler], the Doctor, the Master, the Year That Never Was, various other old school companions... there are so many possibilities. *holds up hands* That won't come into fruition until I finish everything else on my plate! I promise! :-P
