Well, that was OK.
Ha ha, yeah, basically. That...sure was an episode of Doctor Who with pirates. Who became SPACE pirates!
I liked the "healer gone wrong" plot better in "The Doctor Dances." This one didn't make much sense.
Or maybe you could just be Buffy, he'll see your amazing heart, and he'll fall in love with you.

I didn't get Rory's hand cuts equating to him drowning once off life support.
Or why she was "saving" them without really saving them. Except suddenly all the crew seemed to fine except Tyhpoid Boy

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

When he got knocked overboard, the Doctor said he was drowning.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Rory was drowning when the siren got him out of the water.
For most of the crew, the only health problem they have were their nicks and cuts, which they could heal on their own. The exceptions were Rory (drowning) and Toby (Typhoid). It's weird that none of them chose to go back onto their own ship (although, I suppose, becalmed is bad).

He was drowning because he was drowning when the siren transported him to the med center to save him.
What the hell she was doing with the pirates who were PERFECTLY FINE except for a little cut is anyone's guess.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Rory was drowning when she got to him--he had dived into the ocean. She was taking in any human with an imperfection and made no distinction between a cut finger or a case of Typhoid. And she wasn't curing them, just keeping them alive. She was more an EMT than a doctor, really.

Apparently, when we know an answer, we really like to jump in with it.

All is well that ends in pizza.
