History Recap / DoctorWhoS32E6TheAlmostPeople

* WhatTheHellHero: After spending 2 episodes pontificating on how Gangers are real people, The Doctor doesn't hesitate to kill [[spoiler: Ganger!Amy.]]

Back inside the TARDIS, the Doctor explains his reasoning for the switcharoo. And why he told Amy to "breathe" earlier. She's going into labor. Or rather, her very pregnant ''actual'' self is. Because the Amy that's been travelling with the Doctor this season is not Amy, but a non-autonomous Ganger avatar body, sending feedback to the real Amy somewhere far away. Amy was kidnapped months ago. Probably before America. The Doctor knew all along, because [[Recap/DoctorWhoNSS4E5ThePoisonSky the Flesh has never been able to fool him]]. He just needed to know more about it before taking action: how it feels, how it works, and it can judge.

And as the Doctor dissolves the Flesh of Amy's Ganger, telling Rory to be very brave, we cut to where Amy really is: on an operatng table, giving birth. And the eyepatch lady that Amy keeps seeing through doors and walls is staring at her, real this time, happy that the baby is about to be born. Amy ''screams''.

Jennifer morphs into a freakish long-limbed monster. Eventually, the factory is about to be blown up, and the Doctor reveals to Amy that he's not the Doctor at all. He's the Ganger -- and has been all along. They switched shoes to see how Amy would respond to them. The Doctor's Ganger sacrifices himself while the Doctor, Amy and Rory escape. The two remaining Gangers are dropped off safely, together with the last living human crew member. They decide to let the world know what happened, together.

Continued from the last episode, and all-out war is going on between the human crew and their rogue Gangers, both of which fear the other group too much to stay rational. As the solar storm rages, Jennifer, a Ganger driven mad by the memories of being "decommissioned", is seeking revenge. As the crumbling factory fills with toxic fumes and drips lethal acid, the "originals" wait desperately for the shuttle from the Mainland to rescue them.

It turns out that the factory is full of discarded bits and pieces of Flesh... still fully conscious.

The Doctor's own Ganger has some initial glitches. But the Doctor calms him down and, [[Recap/DoctorWhoNSS4E13JourneysEnd as usual]], effortlessly teams up with himself. He tells Amy that they can still be told apart, because the original Doctor's shoes dissolved last episodes, and he's wearing sneakers now.

* ShoutOut: Amy mentions how [[HighLander there can be only one]] Doctor.

* FridgeLogic: Amy told the Doctorganger that she'd seen the Doctor die and suspected that maybe he was supposed to take his place, except [[spoiler: the Doctor and Doctorganger had to have switched shoes prior to this, because when the supposed Doctorganger came back inside, they insisted that he be isolated away from the rest of the group.]]

* ParanoiaFuel: [[spoiler:Who's to say that '''you''' aren't unknowingly piloting a ganger right now, separated from all your friends and family who don't even know you're missing?]]

* UncannyValley: The Gangers.

As the solar storm rages, Jennifer, a Ganger driven mad by the memories of being "decommissioned", is seeking revenge.

She can remember every excruciating second of every "execution" and is determined that the humans will pay. And she isn't just talking war; she's talking revolution. As the crumbling factory fills with toxic fumes and drips lethal acid, the "Originals" wait desperately for the shuttle from the Mainland to rescue them. But Jennifer has other ideas. Can the Doctor convince the terrified factory workers to embrace their own humanity and work together with their Gangers to overcome a monster of their own making?

* TakeThat: A minor one to the more [[FanDumb vocal fans]] who persist in their desire to see David Tennant return;
--> '''Doctor''': *''Tenth's voice''* Hello, I'm the Doctor! *''Normal''* NO! Let it go! ''We've moved on!''

* FridgeLogic: Amy told the Doctorganger that she'd seen the Doctor die and suspected that maybe he was supposed to take his place, except [[spoiler: the Doctor and Doctorganger had to have switched shoes prior to this, because when the supposed Doctorganger came back inside, they insisted that he be isolated away from the rest of the group.]

-->''I have a plan and it'll destroy them all.''

* TheyKilledKenny: [[spoiler:Inverted. Rory is the only one who doesn't have a clone of him die.]]
** [[spoiler: To go even further, Rory is the only character in the episode not to die, as at least each of the cast, be it either the original character, or their ganger, dies. This even applies to Amy and The Doctor.]]
