Lots of stuff going around and far too many questions needing to be answered, but here are some incoherent thoughts.
Cut because.... )

television, sci-fi, doctor who

At some point, someone has told him what's going to happen at the lake, or he finds out (not from River if we are truely going backwards in her timeline).

He also has to meet Canton again to instruct him to bring the fuel - or was that just in the invitation? In which case Canton's invitation would have been more detailed than anyone else's, because he clearly had much more idea of what to expect. I imagine we'll meet him again.

Hmm There seems to be some disagreement in various sites if its the Silence or the Silent ...

Which is also making me think I need to go back and rewatch 'Silence In The Library' given the fact we have spacesuits, dead bodies, the end of River Song and Moffat way of refering back/forward.

hmm ok - so singular is Silent, more than one is Silence... That's just bad grammar

The Schrodinger's baby thing breaks if you think about it for long - if she thought she was pregnant 3 months ago but then thought she wasn't, she can't now be pregnant with "the same" baby, realistically - not without knowing about it one way or another. Even if the baby has a Time Head.

(It doesn't rule out her deciding she definitely wants one and conceiving it in the intervening time, of course, per se - except we don't know if she and Rory were together for much/any of that time.)

Perhaps the Silence are responsible for the pregnancy somehow (what did they do to her in the time the had her?) and it's only done after the three months gap? And they implanted the suggestion that she sould tell the Doctor she's prengnat in that bathroom.

Why make the TARDIS invisible?

Yes, why? Normally a TARDIS would disguise itself to fit in with its surroundings. What's the point of a feature that turns it invisible?

Also I didn't understand why it was necessary to have the FBI or whoever it was chasing them. Is it just so we can see more locations? Suppose Canton has magic bullets; what if someone else gets trigger happy and shoots first?
