* OurClonesAreDifferent: The Sontarans use a bactic tank of green fluid to grow a human clone as an infiltrator. In its embryonic stage, the clone is a near-featureless adult-sized humanoid with sealed eyes and a melted mouth, connected to the cloning machine by an umbilical cord in the back of its neck (the same spot where the probic vents of the Sontarans, themselves a race of clones, are located). Upon wiring Martha Jones into the machine as the template, the clone grows from its embryonic form into a physical double of Martha within hours or less. The Martha clone has all of Martha's memories uploaded into her, but is reliant on Martha remaining connected to the cloning machine to stay alive. The Doctor says in the next episode that he knew the clone was an imposter from the start because she has reduced iris contraction and slight thinning of the hair follicles on the left temple compared to the real Martha.
