Boom Town

I'm watching this episode of Dr Who, and I have no clue what's going on! "Bad wolf" and something, some phrase going on between the doctor and Rose. For some reason the TARDIS is unable to fly, so they have to wait with the last remaining Slitheen before they can deliver her to her home planet, where she will face the death penalty. This being Britain, that's a troublesome outcome. Actually, I have seen this sort of plot device before, in Star Trek.

You know, I didn't expect we'd be seeing much of Rose's boyfriend, Micky, again. But here we are, watching them have relationship troubles. He makes silly faces when he's emotional. Apparently Micky is breaking it off with Rose. Probably not forever, but if it is, it's probably for the best. He doesn't deserve to be in a relationship that isn't official, where the other half of the relationship keeps going away for who knows how long to who knows where.

One intersting thing about this episode is the criticism the Slitheen gives the Doctor for meddling in other people's lives. And we also learn that the TARDIS is alive and has a soul, apparently. A bright soul that regresses people to eggs?
