    I think you talked over the best lines in the episode, after Mels/River regenerated:
    Rory: "Is anybody else finding this day a little difficult? I'm getting this sort of banging in my head."
    Amy: "I think that's Hitler in the cupboard."

    I'm pretty sure the Doctor said "Tell River I love her", considering Melody replied with "I'm sure she knows". Not really many other things he could have said to merit that kind of response. Then she saw that she's River Song, and realized that they're going to be in love in the future, so she sacrificed her regenerations for him.

      ​@GhostPlay But why would this version of River even know that there was any significance in his name?
      He just sits up, whispers "Ralph" into her ear, or whatever, and she's like "IM SURE SHE KNOWS" ? Doesn't really make a lot of sense lol. Plus, the whole point of his name is that he would only tell it to someone he loves - and River didn't know she was River by that point, she only found out when the Tessalecta transformed into her.
      It wouldn't make sense for him to be telling her the secret of his name, to pass on to the woman she thought he loved, and just casually whisper it to her even though - as far as she knew at the time - they were complete strangers.

    • @skeleetoon
      @skeleetoon 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      For River to know his name in the Forest of the Dead she would need to have heard it from the Doctor. I like to think he told her so the timeline would make sense. I'm also sure that HE does in fact love her at this point considering all they've been through and off camera stuff, so the idea that he would only tell it to someone he would EVENTUALLY marry still works
      As for how she would know of the significance of his name, he calls himself "The Doctor", so i'm pretty sure she just assumed it was a nickname and that River would know his real one because of the way he described her

    Important to remember, this is (from the Doctor's point of view) his last regeneration. That's part of why this doctor is more frenetic than previous doctors, and more willing to bend and break the rules. He's an immortal facing his pending mortality.

    • @Wolfer1OOO

      A small correction is he is not and knows he is not and has always known he is not an immortal. He has a long and complicated lifespan compared to us however there is a limit and he can die (both from wounds and old age) so he is not immortal. He just has more time (with complications like regeneration)

Every (or I guess let's be generous and say most) humans know they are mortal yet there are still many life risking things people do every day. It's just a case of weighing up your options and deciding if the risk is worth it to you. Some people live in fear and some try to experience everything they can. Most people fall somewhere in between. Just because someone decides to take the risks you think they're unaware of their mortality?

      No he doesn't. So, there are two seperate diaries, Rivers and the Doctors. In this episode we see The Doctor give River her own, blank one to be filled in with her adventures with him. As we see in 'The Impossible Astronaut', the Doctor at some point gets an identical diary and does the same as River, keeping track of events from his perspective. At the end of 'Forest of the Dead' The tenth Doctor leaves Rivers diary behind in the library. But soon after her and the Doctors 24 years on Darillium, Nardole goes to the library (or possibly 12th Doctor himself) and recovers the diary, which is last seen in 'Extremis'.

      Melody/River of 1970 (she regenerated around January, 6 months post July 1969) *did* make her own way back to Leeds; remember, River (much like Romana and some other Timelords from the classic era) has greater control over her regeneration process/expenditure than the Doctor does -- she's commented before about how she can tick back her age, if desired, in whatever incarnation. She matured enough to track down her parents in the UK from the US then regressed herself back to being a child circa the mid-late 1990s (as Amy/Rory were born in 1989) to then grow up with her parents in one of the several timelines that interweave to form Amy's personal history. (Remember: Mel/River both *did* and *did not* grow up with her parents -- several timelines compose Amy's personal experienced history for that period in question, and they are in a degree of flux depending on how you interact with them.)

    I think the biggest problem in this episode is how out of nowhere Mels' introduction into the plot seems. I'm guessing Moffat hadn't thought of her yet during series 5 (not that that entirely excuses clumsily retconning her in later) but you'd think he'd have found some way to foreshadow her appearance here earlier in series 6, even just in an offhanded way, y'now, have Amy/Rory casually mention a friend of theirs at some point that we later find out is more important than she seemed.

      Why did Mels have to be foregrounded?

    • @Zomdra
      @Zomdra 5 ปีที่แล้ว +28

      Because it feels incredibly jarring (and is sloppy writing) to introduce a character who is very important to the plot and has a long history and deep connection to pre-established characters without a single mention or even slight allusion to their existence beforehand. Also, River Song's character history is already complicated enough without haphazardly throwing this part into it out of nowhere and actually, come to think of it, is it ever relevant to the plot at any point after this that River grew up with Amy and Rory? Also, do they ever explain how even though River regenerated into a baby in the 1960s she was still young enough in the 90s/00s to go to school with Amy and Rory? This whole thing just raises so many more questions that it answers and it needn't have done.

    My read on it when I first watched the episode is that the "she" that River said taught her how to fly the TARDIS is referring to the young Amelia Pond voice interface that the Doctor probably left running when he turned up in the fancy suit, so River went into the TARDIS to try and save Rory and Amy, and the hologram literally taught her how to pilot the TARDIS mid-flight.

      @@taimurmuggo1634 I'd agree mediocre is probably the best word to describe it - perhaps terrible goes a bit far. It is my least favorite episode of series 6 followed by The Curse of the Black Spot, though. Night Terrors doesn't really do anything - Amy and Rory just wander the dollhouse and eventually things come together and credits roll. It seems like a waste of an episode. The kid's acting really ruins it for me (I'm not sure the bad acting can be explained because even an alien should show fear and worry fairly naturally, right?). It's a very weak follow-up to the bombast of the previous episodes, but it does provide a reprieve before moving into The Girl Who Waited and The God Complex, some of my favorite episodes of the season.

As far as Rivers behavior, she was programmed to kill the doctor, but then she met him. Met her match, so to speak. She was shaken, and she realized Amy’s version of the Doctor was true, not the Silences version. So she shook off her cult programming and saw what was Real. I think River had a regen between NY in 1969 and when she was Mel’s because Amy was born in the late 80s. River instinctively knew how to fly the tardis because she has been linked to her since she was conceived
