So? Remember, T:SPOIL DEF enjoins us to consider the entire story. Obviously this makes it complicated to deal with comic stories, which are released in tiny increments over months. But what we decided to do with Assimilation² was to try very hard not to go beyond what had actually been printed in any particular instalment — in much the same way that we wouldn't try to predict the events of The Wedding of River Song having only seen The Impossible Astronaut.

The truth is that this frame is just a cliffhanger. It's the thing that's supposed to make you come back to read the story next month. The chances of it actually turning out to be the same tribe depicted in the televised serial are at least dubious, if not actually slim.

We need to refrain from incorporating this material in our articles until we actually know how the story turns out.
