There's so much stuff in this one that's introduced and then just not explored, it is maddening:
* What was the point of introducing the base's reprogrammed AI? Just to have the sacrificial lamb character have to sing a bit before they die? Why did the crew even do that? * What was the point of the concept of Grunts/474? I guess the idea is just to demonstrate how rubbish and evil the 38th century is? * Why does everyone say that line about gods over and over? What's that meant to connect to? * Similarly, the whole India-Japan fusion. I'm all for ethnic diversity in casting, but this was a bizarre way to justify something that didn't even need justifying, and neither culture was actually engaged with in any meaningful sense. * We're presumably picking up on Clara having been put in the Morpheus machine next week, right? Cause if not that's an outright dropped thread?
