Doctor Who/Recap/S29/E04 Daleks in Manhattan: Difference between revisions

{{quote| '''The Doctor''': Tallulah, you're not safe down here.<br />

'''Tallulah''': ''Then that's my problem.'' }}

* [[Fetal Position Rebirth]]

* [[Foreshadowing]]: Dalek Caan's quite un-Dalek-like thoughtful musings to Diagoras that humans are prospering while Daleks were almost wiped out. While it doesn't pay off in this story, it hints at what will happen with the character next series.

'''Martha''': Not to him. }}

** Tallulah responds by mistaking "[[Oblivious to Love]]" for "[[Unusual Euphemism|into]] [[Mistaken for Gay|musical theatre]]."

* [[Homemade Inventions]]: The Doctor's DNA scanner.

* [[Judgment of Solomon]]: Literally, which is definitely on purpose.

* [[Police Are Useless]]: Enough people have gone missing that it's made the papers, yet the police are nowhere to be seen. According to Solomon, they went to the police, but the cops don't care if "another deadbeat goes missing".

* [[Reckless Gun Usage]]: Subverted. While threatening the Doctor and company, Tallulah waves her gun all over the place with little to no regard for where it's pointing; turns out it's a prop.

* [[Standard Snippet]]: As per legal obligations, there's a snippet of ''Rhapsody in Blue'' when the Doctor and Martha arrive in New York.

* [[Trailers Always Spoil]]: Infamously, the ending was spoiled by featuring the human Daleks prominently on the cover of ''Radio Times'', apparently simply because it was just too awesome to pass up as a cover image.

* [[Wasteland Elder]]
