Talk:K9 Mark I

Unacceptable speculation
I removed the speculation that "K-9 might have escaped" when Gallifrey returned in The End of Time. That's great except that happened 40 YEARS before the events of Regeneration... plus the whole concept of the episode and the redesign of K-9 is to establish that he has regenerated, just like the Doctor. You don't go and speculate that the First Doctor might have escaped rather than changing into the second! 68.146.81.123 05:29, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Time Lord?
According to Time Lord, "On another occasion, Omegon referred to K9 as a fellow Time Lord. (PROSE: K9 and the Time Trap)" (For reference, the Omegon page clarifies that "Omegon" here means "Omega".) Shouldn't a note of this be made on this page also? --Scrooge MacDuck ☎  22:19, June 27, 2019 (UTC)


 * Before making any changes, please, provide the quote from the source material. What was the exact phrase by which Omegon "referred" to K9 thusly? Amorkuz ☎  22:22, June 27, 2019 (UTC)


 * Sorry, but I believe the post at Time Lord and therefore here is a misreading of the original post at K9 and the Time Trap (novel), which states:
 * "Omegon tells K9 that he has met his master, that he was once a Time Lord and that he engineered the system by which the Time Lords travel in time. These hints point to Omegon being an alias of Omega."
 * It sounds like Omegon is talking about himself all three times, since they are supposedly clues that he is really Omega. The confusing use of pronouns here led someone to think that K9 was once a Time Lord, but like I said, that is most likely a misreading. Shambala108 ☎  22:28, June 27, 2019 (UTC)
 * One of the relevant quotes, I have found, is "Listen, hound… I too was once a Time Lord."


 * Shambala's interpretation that the "too" could be comparing Omegon to K9's master rather than to K9 himself is plausible, I suppose. I don't think it's quite clear-cut, however, as K9's master hasn't yet come up in their conversation at this point. --Scrooge MacDuck ☎  22:33, June 27, 2019 (UTC)


 * I had exactly the same feeling as Shambala108. Just wanted to give a benefit of a doubt. The quote confirmed our suspicions. You really think it is plausible to interpret the quote with "too" as a claim that the hound is also a Time Lord? As for his master, wasn't K9 sent by Time Lords? Omegon does not have to refer to any particular Time Lord by this "too". Unless there are other quotes to this effect, this looks to be a serious misreading of the text.
