History Headscratchers / DoctorWhoSeries7

** It's possible that this will be explained in a later episode, but most likely, it was River; it does fit her MO, so it's hardly a great leap to suppose it was her.

*** 1. Lactation doesnt work that way. 2. I'm almost certain that wouldnt actually work for making a soufle.

** Only pure Daleks ares sent to the Asylum, and even then only when it isnt inconvenient.

*** I assume that the Prime Minister is basically an extension of the Emperor, or possibly something like the Classic Series' Dalek High Council. The Emperor can't dictate everything that happens in the Dalek Empire and needs a Dalek to basically be his voice. The Prime Minister would be his representative-just being a mutant in a fancy tube could signify that the Dalek Prime Minister has no real power. Being called a "Dalek Prime Minister" was [[EvilHasABadSenseOfHumor both a joke]] and nod to their involvment with Winston Churchill.

** It's not exactly uncommon for couples who have seemingly strong relationships to break down after discovering that one of the partners is infertile, and remember that Amy is going through a lot of grief and insecurity about this; it might not be strictly logical of her to think in this way, but then love, grief and insecurity very rarely operate according to strictly logical terms. River is is not exactly a conventional example of having a child, since they've missed out on several fundamental parts of the process of rearing their child (such as the whole 'childhood' thing for one).

** Remember the afterword, too. Amy was apparently a lot older when she wrote it, and it confirmed that they never saw eachother again (alright, so he ''could'' go back to a time after she wrote it... but somehow I think meeting her again as a very old woman not far from death would probably upset both of them more).

** The farm ''doesn't make any sense.'' The angels feed by zapping people into the past and soaking up the potential energy their removal from the time stream generates. They also can apparently physically teleport people without sending them back in time, too. And they take over a hotel in New York and use it as a location that they can keep zapping people back to to feed younger versions of themselves. ''That'' part, I get. However, New York has only been around since about 1624, and chances are high that part of it's going to be underwater within the next century. It's one of the worst places you could possibly build such a farm. Plus, they ''can't'' be zapping prey much further back than the 1930's era we see in the episode, because otherwise there would have been no Old Rory to die in front of Young Rory's eyes. So they're getting, what, maybe three or four meals per victim out of it? And then they're keeping those victims imprisoned in the hotel, fed and cared for, even after they've fed. And when the victims try to escape, they (or the Statue of Liberty) zap them back to their room. But if the angels need to eat, then they clearly require energy to live, and they must be ''expending'' energy to return their prisoners to their cells. So unless Rory only ever tried to escape ''once'' before giving up--which I think we can all agree is unlikely--then the angels must have needed to keep expending energy to imprison him again. Not to mention the other resource drains that would come with maintaining the hotel for centuries. Yes, sure, Ten called them "thoughtful psychopaths," but if they're unable to handle basic resource management, they're not thoughtful, they're stupid.

** I'm pretty sure the only way to escape is not to click on the Wi-Fi connection in the first place, or at least that's what the opening scene implied to me (apart from the blatant Apple MacBook Air placements all over the scene, which imply that that scene was just an Apple advert instead). Once you've clicked, it's over, I presume.

* When Clara is traveling through The Doctor's time-stream, how come we never see her saving the Ninth Doctor? I know theirs a clip of her helping Ten at the Library (even though it was cut for some reason), but no Nine, why is that?

** The doctor had to turn the power up on it and he might have been afraid it might hurt the kids.

*** He ''didn't'' kill them all last time, [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E03VictoryOfTheDaleks they won.]] It makes sense they'd have gotten more powerful.

*** Given the events of ''The Stolen Earth'' and ''Journey's End'' got eaten by time-cracks, he might never have even made it out of the Time War. Unless they got brought back in Big Bang 2, but then everyone should know about aliens.
** Even if he survived thanks to JokerImmunity, genetically pure Daleks tend to hate him and only seek his help when they have no other choice (against the Movellans in Destiny of the Daleks, Caan when he's the last left).

** Perhaps Daleks have a means of teleportation built into the casings (like the Emergency Temporal Shift.)

* The Dalek from ''Dalek'' had been put in chains by humans who didn't know its strength. And it worked because it was so heavily damaged. Seeing it break free of those after repairing itself was a nice effect. But why are there so many shattered links in ''Asylum of the Daleks''? Who thought it would restrain anyone? Or were the Doctor, Amy and Rory leaving time energy everywhere?

** The final answer from ''The Name of the Doctor'': [[spoiler:Oswin and Clara are both the same person, a girl named Clara who becomes the Doctor's Companion and ends up jumping into his Time Stream to save his life. This action spreads her across his lifetime, causing her to appear in numerous times and places to help him]].

* Why does Amy ask "when as killing been an option"?She knows the Doctor has killed and is willing to kill threats,heck he dumped the Weeping Angels in a time fissure that made them never exist,arranged it so the Silence would order there own death and launched an assault on Demon's run when Amy was taken (at least two of those things occurred while she was watching).

*** The wardrobe is a Chronicles of Narnia reference referring to how the present is a portal to another world.
