Vinder certainly plays a bigger part this episode, and we see how he ended up at Outpost Rose. It’s revealed to be the companions’ past, present, and future memories they’re living. Yaz and Dan appear back on Earth in their respective homes – camouflage, apparently – but they’re aware something isn’t right. In an attempt to buy time to save her friends and, well, the universe, the Doctor puts herself and Yaz, Dan, and Vinder into the center of a time storm. We spend the episode hopping between time streams, as if I wasn’t confused enough going into the episode. They’re still looking for each other at episode’s end, and despite the little screen time they had together, I’m invested. She doesn’t manage to find the person she’s looking for, but we learn at the end of the episode it’s Vinder, and she’s pregnant with his child. She dodges daleks and successfully fights off a bunch of cybermen in the name of love.
When we meet Bel, she’s fighting her way across her world to get to someone. Those Ravagers don’t look freaky, but we should all be very afraid.
It’s the aftermath of the Flux, and apparently, daleks aren’t the scariest thing in the post-Flux world. Without further ado, we start our tale, “Once, Upon Time.” Bel’s story
At this point, we’re halfway through, and Chris Chibnall is either a genius or is just throwing everything in the Whoniverse at the show in a “what are they going to do, fire me” exit. Welcome to Chapter 3 of me having no idea what the heck is going on in Flux. Doctor Who: Flux recap: “Once, Upon Time,” Aired Nov.
