“Sometimes the only choices you have are bad ones, but you still have to choose.” is one of those quotes that come back to me occasionally. Sometimes things just plain old suck but you still have agency within that pile of suck. There's a kind of grim comfort in that. Yea, based on the earlier interaction, Clara is looking like a liar liar pants on fire. I really respect that Danny said Clara needed to come to him when she was in over her head but he also didn't demand she quit. On the phone he even said she didn't need to be so extreme. It's not fully clear to me in this episode why she didn't just say, "okay, I've changed my mind" to the doctor. Pride, I guess.

Addicts, both of them.

Danny had no decision in Clara's choice, from what I understood it's to do with that talk about addiction, and addiction makes you do strange and extreme things when more rational people would think it through - Which is something Danny pointed out in the caretaker episode (you should have been scared, but weren't moment) - Think of everything Clara has done since half way through season seven, she lives an extreme lifestyle with the Doctor and can't give it up (or is she being pushed too much like Danny says generals do...) either way I think that chat about addiction was there for a reason and explains Clara quite well I think.

The treats in the cigarette case were Jelly Babies. Early gummie treats popular the 70's. The 4th Doctor would often try to diffuse a stressful situation by pulling a rumpled paper bag out of his pocket, holding it out to someone and saying, "Would you like a jelly baby?"

I really want to catch up and watch full lengths here, I'm still all the way back in season 6 lol, I can't find where to watch these anywhere? It's gone from HBO Max and iPlayer is not allowing me access from the United States. Can't use a VPN, my wifi needs some extra security bells and whistles as a family member does virtual healthcare work from home...any suggestions, all?
