Waking up in a surreal room, Clara quickly assesses the situation and begins to take control of her body back from the Zygon running around posing as her. The Doctor and Osgood, having parachuted to safety, find themselves in dangerous territory as they begin to piece the puzzle together and try to locate Clara. The Doctor hopes she's still alive.
The majority of the Zygons would much rather live in peace while a small group of rebels, led by Bonnie {Clara's double} have other plans. They know of the Osgood box and go hunting for it. A battle of wits between Bonnie and Clara ensues with amusing dialogue but ultimately, the Doctor has layer upon layer of tricks up his sleeve with this little treaty and talks down the tantrum-throwing child. He's seen the devastation of war, herd the cries of children and seen death in so many forms. He's pressed the button and destroyed his own people. With such a heartache of pain constantly with him, why would he let Bonnie carry the same burden?
This was a very interesting episode, filled with fun little twists {though not necessarily unpredictable} and his big speech at the end was great, except for the very annoying fact that taking great gasps of breath in between each word really took the thunder out of it for us. Please don't try that one again.
