Eppy Six -- My Thoughts -- Kinda Spoilery

amberfocusSpoilery if you haven't watched eppy six of DW and my guesses (only guesses) to where things might be going.
So, I just finished eppy 6 of Doctor Who and I am so happy they didn't screw it up. The thing that made me squee the most, though? The diploid haploid thing when they were explaining how Jenny was created. Now if you'll recall, I used the diploid haploid thing with Meiosis to explain the Doctor's disjunction into two distinct selves in Wolf Moon. And now Doctor Who Skience has used it, similarly, but with a sort of twist to allow for an offspring. Guess all my research was not too far off the mark. Now it's canon almost! *giggles* I can't help it, I love that.
I also think Jenny is Little Red Riding Hood and she's going to meet up with the big Bad Wolf! I so think this is where we're going now and I hope so, because I think Jenny and Rose would get on well. In fact, Jenny's energy and perkiness and fearlessness and self-sacrifice remind me a lot of Rose without Rose's attitude. I could easily see her fitting in on the TARDIS later on in other seasons.
I'm not really sure if the Doctor was feeling love for his "daughter" in this episode so much as enjoying a companion and connecting with someone. I think he might have let it turn to love, but I think his sadness was more the reaction of lost hope, again, then anything else.
I did love the fact that it had only been a week since the war had broken out and yet it had been several generations. Donna was brilliant figuring that out and Martha was the same strong woman we saw with Torchwood, taking charge and finding her own way to the space ship. Donna saying she wanted to stay with the Doctor forever was heavy foreshadowing and I'm pretty sure she just doomed herself by saying that. Oh, I hope not, because I love her, and the only way I want to see her go is if she gives up her life so that Rose and the Doctor can be together, because I can see her sacrificing herself for that, or even taking Rose's place in the alternate universe at Torchwood or something.
The mark on the Doctor's hand after being in the machine that sampled his genetic strutcture was exactly the same as the mark on the hands of the gas mask zombies in The Empty Child. After the "Are you my mummy," line last week that cannot be a coincidence. And also a bit of a joke stretch with the Doctor being both Jenny's mummy and daddy. *snorts*
The regneration bit was weird, not a full regeneration, but maybe she was affected by the terraforming mix that had been let loose, bringing new life to dead things? Because I think the Doctor would have known if she wasn't fully dead or if only one of her hearts had stopped. I don't think she's fully Time Lord or he would have felt her wake up the moment she did. I wonder if the partial regeneration is setting the stage for anything else, maybe something to do with Rose? I can see the same incident occuring with Rose, him thinking she is dead, leaving her behind and then she wakes up. Killing Rose (and all of his hope) without killing Rose. Again.
Dunno. It's all speculation and if you do know don't spoil me in the comments, please?
