Holy hell. teddy0bear totally called it!

And no, you are not the only one who didn't see it coming.

I'm glad. I never see things coming. (RORY!)

What are they going to do about kid-Melody killing the Doctor? Because I knew that adult-River killed him, but I figured, hey, regeneration, no harm done. But kid-Melody killed him a second time during the regeneration cycle, and this series is far too lucrative to stop now.

Related: what are they going to do when he hits 12?

Although, how the hell did the Doctor kill ganger-Amy so nonchalantly after he had been all "oh goodness me, Flesh is all sentient, we mustn't kill them!"?

These are the things that keep me up at night.

I think because Flesh-Amy wasn't sentient. The other gangers became sentient when that electrical thingy happened, but Flesh-Amy was still a puppet being controlled by Real-Amy.

I've been assuming that it's the Flesh-Doctor who gets killed, though I bet it's not that simple. IHNI what they're going to do when he hits 12. Find a way to retcon it, probably.

But they were talking about how when the gangers melt, the eyes are the last to go, and they ask "why?". So it sounds like the electrical thing merely allowed them to detach themselves from the humans, but they were aware all along.

I am thinking about this way too much.

They retconned the Master hitting 12. They'll manage it for the Doctor.

Ack, IDK, then. Maybe they're aware in an animal-level sort of way - that pile of Jennifers didn't seem humanly intelligent. (Which still doesn't make me feel good about killing them.) Or the human-humans are drawing unwarranted inferences from the existence of eyes and how they'd feel if they were melting.
