7X02 Dinosaurs On A Spaceship (Grading/Discussion) (SPOILERS!)
- Thread starter Samurai8472
- Start date
The Doctor is not a signatory of the shadow proclamation. hell they were surprised to find out that he existed, but that doesn't stop him from getting others to live up to obligations which they (or their representatives) signed up for.
Well, let's assume for a moment that the alleged murder happened in the jurisdiction of Earth and that both the Doctor and Solomon are persons within the meaning of Earth law.
A principle of murder is that the intention of the act was to kill the deceased. Since both the targeting of the smaller ship and the locking of said ship were for the purpose of saving the larger ship and not for the purpose of killing Solomon, there's really no issue here. Justifiable homicide, maybe. (Even an active killing of Solomon would arguably have been a justifiable homicide, as Solomon was an unrepentant mass murderer and would-be slaver who had committed an act of war against the Doctor's - and the Earth's - allies.)
Anyway, maybe (just maybe) the Doctor can pick him off the ship before it explodes. But I wouldn't make a habit of it.

Hadn't thought about that, but, yeaWhy are people so surprised that Nefertiti understood about spaceships etc?
She's probably already met the Goa'uld
Or the Osirians that fought and subdued Sutehk. Plus, we don't know how much the Doctor explained to Nefratiti before she slinked her shapely way into the TARDIS. For all we know, he may have gone so far as to discuss his family on Gallifrey.
Besides, I've always been a sucker for lovely ladies in Egyptian garb. Dress one of the cat ladies from New...New York in similar attire and I'd probably, well, we won't get into that here.

Bill

I actually think it would be kind of random and hilarious if, say, next season, something happens that puts the Doctor in a really good and forgiving mood, and he hops into the TARDIS, materializes inside Solomon's ship, and grabs him just before the missiles hit.Anyway, maybe (just maybe) the Doctor can pick him off the ship before it explodes.

I'm more bothered that she knew what Dinosaurs were.
Did she, though? I thought I heard her simply call them "monsters."
Heads Solomon, tails Adric.I actually think it would be kind of random and hilarious if, say, next season, something happens that puts the Doctor in a really good and forgiving mood, and he hops into the TARDIS, materializes inside Solomon's ship, and grabs him just before the missiles hit.Anyway, maybe (just maybe) the Doctor can pick him off the ship before it explodes.

Really? Because I don't like either option.
It was pretty good, but I'm just waiting for the drama to come back. It seems the seasons of late are more comedy/family kinda things than more serious drama. I want that.
The robots were hilarious by the way, as was the tri.

I'm expecting a TON of Eleven/Nefertiti "Missing Adventures" from Big Finish in about a decade (along with Eleven/River, Ten/Donna, and Nine/Sally Sparrow if they can ever bring Eccleston around).
The robots reminded me of Hack and Slash from the Reboot CGI show from the 1990's.
OK, I didn't catch that. I thought she reacted with indifference to them.
"Dear Big Finish. Shut up and take my money."
Don't you mean Ten and Sa lly Sparrow? Nine never met her.
