Worldbuilding[]

  • Missy has apparently tweeted a picture of the Monk while he was "on the loo".
  • The Monk's TARDIS first disguises itself as a Chevy 67, then into a Police Box and finally a suitcase on wheels.
  • The Monk finds humans very attractive, including male and female.
  • Richard Temple is selling regeneration. Instead of changing body, they simply deage and get better looking.
  • Missy threatens to use all her guns to make Richard Temple's office look like a "dropped lasagna".
  • Richard refers to Missy as "Nanny McPhee".
  • The Seed was found drifting in Arkansas. The Seed was "acquired" by a certain expert institution and later sold to Temple.
  • The Master created the Seed - a War Seed - by using her own DNA. She made more than one. Due to her DNA being present, the War Seed's face keeps changing between the Master's faces. A War Seed embeds itself into a society and turns the populace into soldiers that answer to the Time Lords.
    • Missy suggests that if Temple returns her son, she will offer him the army left behind.
  • Missy once again refers to the Monk as "Monkey".
  • In a state of panic, Murph regenerates (or degenerates) into a monster resembling a cheetah-human hybrid. The Monk contemplates whether this regeneration was based on pure survival.
  • The Seed could see somewhat into the future, knowing that Brad was going to die. He was also able to sense his brothers.
  • On a previously seeded planet, the bloomed War Seed had transformed the Cheetle populace into weapons.
  • The War Seeds have TARDIS DNA woven through him, allowing them to dematerialise on the spot.
  • Temple states that he acquired the Seed in 1985 and has had him for 35 years, placing this story in 2020.
