"How do you know it's a duck pond when there aren't any ducks?!"

[philosophercat]

And the mystery, my friends, is solved:

Philosopherkitty: Wait... what if Rory and Amy are ducks?
Philosopherkitty: Ducks from space?!
platy121: O_O
platy121: OH MY GOD
platy121: I think you've cracked it!
platy121: "Why aren't there any ducks?" Because they were TURNED INTO PEOPLE.
Philosopherkitty: Do your ducks exhibit dificulty emoting with their eyes, Carrie?
platy121: they do. They really do.
Philosopherkitty: ... ...Oh my god.
platy121: And Rory's pronounced nose? IT SHOULD BE A BILL.
Philosopherkitty: I cannot deny that this makes perfect sense to me.
platy121: next season is going to be a doozy.
platy121: Eleven and two ducks in the TARDIS.
Philosopherkitty: \o/
platy121: it'll be like Doctor Who meets Babe.
Philosopherkitty: I approve of this
Philosopherkitty: Especially since it's the basic set up for Crackovalva, only with ducks instead of a sheep, and 11 instead of 5.
platy121: hehehehe
Philosopherkitty: I would love to see that happen, though.
platy121: meeeeeee too
Philosopherkitty: Everyone in England: ...*stare at TV in shock*
Us: YES!
Philosopherkitty: Rory: ...So... wait. I'm... a duck?
11: Yes, a duck. A duck from space.
Rory: ...O...kay.
platy121: heheheheheheee
Philosopherkitty: Amy: There is NO WAY I'm a duck, Doctor.
11: Pond?
Amy: It's a coincidence! >_<
11: Never ignore a coincidence, Amy.
platy121: 11: I've noticed how much you enjoy eating the toast crumbs off your plate at breakfast.
Philosopherkitty: LOL
Philosopherkitty: I think Rory seems to have a sort of runner duck-like posture at times
Philosopherkitty: pitched forward a little
platy121: he seriously does!
platy121: heeeeeheheheheee
platy121: I dunno if Amy's a duck, though
platy121: she may be a goose
Philosopherkitty: a goose pond?
platy121: geese can swim; why not?
Philosopherkitty: true
platy121: or maybe they're both runners
platy121: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/09/Runner-ducks.jpg
platy121: although actually, the taller one looks more like Eleven
Philosopherkitty: yes, I think it's that ageless and forever look in its eye
platy121: like fire and ice and rage
Philosopherkitty: Quite so.

platy121: they could even dress them up!
platy121: the Amyduck could wear a flattering miniskirt and a little red scarf
platy121: http://pastures.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/runnerducks2.jpg
platy121: I think that may be Rory and Amy right there
Philosopherkitty: those ducks are in TARDIS blue!
Philosopherkitty: the perfect disguise.
Philosopherkitty: They even believe their own cover story!
platy121: And here is a goose that does an excellent impression of Amy being surprised!
platy121: http://asarahtownsendcreation.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/canada_goose_head_detail1.jpg
platy121: it's in the eyes *sage nod*
Philosopherkitty: LOL
Philosopherkitty: it does!
platy121: it's settled
platy121: Amy is a goose.
platy121: Rory is a runner duck
platy121: FROM SPAAAAACE

I am going to have the strangest dreams ever tonight. That is my prediction.

This seems genuine...


Steven Moffat answers your questions before you ask them. No, really.

"I'm going to answer some of your questions Before You Ask Them. Please
keep the following paragraphs, because you may need them over the next
four weeks of the Matt Smith era.

THE ANSWERS 1) Because it's a time machine, dummy.

2) Because the structural damage alluded to in the opening scenes has
caused a certain amount of leakage. Yes, leakage. Shut up, it's all
planned, you wait until episode 12!

3) Ah! Ah! But where in the episode does it say it's the second time? No,
see, it doesn't. So nyer. In fact, the use of the word "keep" in scene 23
would suggest that it isn't the second time. Yeah, not so smart now, are
you? Ha!!"

Rassilon's Beard! You're right!

[philosophercat.livejournal.com]

Speaking of beards...



Does that doll under the Amy doll have... a beard?

[hukbillgoomba.livejournal.com]

Could be an open mouth.

But if it's The Master... MOAR QUESTIONS!!

[philosophercat.livejournal.com]

Or the Doctor decides its time to join the Beard Club and Amy's having a premonition of this? He decides to give up bowties after enduring her constant bowtie bashing, but insists on growing a beard to compensate?

And then they have a multi-Doctor story in which his past selves all mistake him for the Master- except for 5 since he can never seem to pick up on that cue.

You're both very strange. I thoroughly approve.

I SUPPORT THIS THEORY. I donate money to this theory's campaign. I write it encouraging notes. I want to take this theory to dinner.
