Howling:Amy's Dream

Anyone else notice that the dream-events of “Amy’s Choice” have been coming true, one by one? Rory died in the dream–then in “Cold Blood,” he died in reality. The Doctor blew up the TARDIS in the dream–and in “The Pandorica Opens,” the TARDIS blew up in reality. Amy was pregnant in the dream. Now she’s pregnant in reality… maybe. And on top of all of that, we hear the mysterious eye-patch lady saying about Amy that she's still dreaming.. 94.187.71.208 18:14, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

I'm expecting that the eye patch woman is linked to those fairytales about the Pandorica in Amy's house. --Revan\Talk 18:39, May 3, 2011 (UTC)


 * What I love most about the character of the lady with the eye patch is that she is totally random with no information to base off of who she is. Besides something about dreaming but that is way to vague to make real assumptions about. Enough to be like WTH but not enough to be like "oh it's obviously...".V00D00M0NKY 20:11, May 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * I believe she is a nanny for the little girl or Amy's child (although I reckon they're the same person).
 * First of all please sign your posts.
 * Either that or Amy is just dreaming. I really hope that Amy did not just simply dream these first 2 episodes and maybe more. They did enough "resets" where what happened never happened. It's alright when they did it with Amy's Choice but I will not be happy if Amy really was just dreaming. Unless a Silent kidnapped her before she got to the door and the rest of that was a dream and the whole thing including the photo of Amy with the baby was in a dream of hers. The whole pregnancy thing could have just been implanted in her mind and the dream of her seeing the photo reinforcing it. As far as I know even though the room was real the photo could have still been fake because I don't recall anyone else noticing it. V00D00M0NKY 21:51, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

If Amy was dreaming, we wouldn't be able to see parts of the episode from the point of view of the Doctor, Rory, River, or Canton when they weren't with Amy. Usually when the show does resets, it involves time being rewritten, and I'm sure that Moffat knows that making the episodes a dream would be a bad plot that everyone would find annoying. Amy's Choice was a dream, but the audience knew that from the beginning. What the Eye Patch Lady said was not definitive enough to say that Amy is dreaming. She only thinks that someone is dreaming, and doesn't know for a fact, and she may have been saying that the little girl or another character was dreaming.Icecreamdif 22:34, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

"It was all a dream--a horrible, horrible dream." Just like Dallas. But the obvious person to be dreaming is the Doctor, not Amy. It was his dream they were all stuck in in Amy's Choice, not hers. And there were two dreams inside that dream of his, so why couldn't there be another one outside of it?

The only question is, what could have kept the Doctor unconscious for so long?

Here's my theory: It's actually been even longer than that. When the 6th Doctor bumped his head at the start of Time and the Rani, he was knocked out. Subconsciously, he knew that when he woke up, he'd be in that horrible Colin Baker jacket, and he'd have to deal with Mel. So, what does he do? Stays asleep as long as possible. Who wouldn't? In his dreams, he regenerates himself into progressively younger, skinnier, and slicker forms, with a wide range of outfits that all look a million times better than the one he's going to wake up in, and he imagines himself companions who are a million times better than Mel, finally getting to the point where he's effectively recreated Jamie and Zoe, the best companions he ever had, unfairly taken from him by the Time Lords. There are some major inconsistencies and nonsensicalities early on (see especially 7's first season, Lungbarrow, the TV movie, and the later EDAs), but eventually he's gotten better at dreaming, and he has no intention of ever waking up again. --99.33.26.0 05:38, May 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * I think you may be onto something there. Sorryaboutthatchief 01:37, May 6, 2011 (UTC)

You seem to be contradicting yourself. You are suggesting that the 6th Doctor never regenerated, but on another post you suggested that the Sixth Doctor did regenerate because he didn't want to go on living. Both theories can't be true, so pick one.Icecreamdif 02:45, May 6, 2011 (UTC)

Wait, are you saying one of them _can_ be true? And if I pick one, maybe you'll even believe it? Wow! OK, here's the one I'm going with: In the real world, it's still actually 1983. Colin Baker fell asleep in the middle of solving a Rubik's Cube and dreamed that he got to play The Doctor, and you're just a minor character in that dream. --99.33.26.0 03:25, May 6, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not saying that one of them can be true, I'm just saying that they can't both be true. I think its more likely that Colin Baker didn't agree to come back for a regeneration sequence, and the writers weren't talented or creative enough to come up with a regeneration at the beginning of the episode that made sense.Icecreamdif 03:45, May 6, 2011 (UTC)
