The Doctor telling Nixon he has to tape everything in the Oval Office? Priceless.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
that was incredible. It felt like a season finale setting up a new season, with it's epicness. It so did not feel like a season premiere ep (2-parter) and I severely appreciate that freshness. Although it does set a pretty high f****** bar.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
The entire portion in the nursing home was one of the creepiest things ever.

Literally howling with laughter over that one. That and the David Frost comment.

Yes.
Also, Moffat is evil.

And, of course, Mark Sheppard's wonderful "Yes...he is."
But that ending with the little girl. OMG! WTF?

I think Amy's fears about what traveling in the TARDIS might do to a gestating child are not all that far fetched.
I love the reveal that Rory does remember his 2000 years of waiting.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So Amy has Schrödinger's pregnancy? And she's the mother of a Time Lord? Maybe?
Yes. WTF.

Yes, someone please explain that. Because I was pretty certain of the River is Amy's daughter and the little girl theory and then the end. Also WTF is up with the pregnancy test?

Yes, I was thinking that too, but is it Rory's child? TCG wants to know if the Tardis could have impregnated her. It is supposed to be alive, right?
