Why doesn't Villenguard have time travel technology of its own? You'd think the biggest arms company in the galaxy would have developed it first and used it to start wars to sell more weapons. And what is the point of building a weapon that can destroy entire solar system when doing that will wipe out the nations of planets you are selling weapons to?

You mean swing back to being straight. Why does he need to spend the whole entire year when it's a completely different hotel in a completely different country he needs to travel to in order to access the time portal? Why doesn't he travel to London as ask David Tennant to borrow his TARDIS instead? He's nothing more than a degenerate tease, as well as a slut, a slag, and a whore. > > As for Joy, it seemed that, for the most part, she was there "just to be > there" until she started talking to the briefcase at the end (for lack > of a better description).

Yes, part of that is the pacing of a one episode story (which You mean the pervert can't act in a serious manner.

They don't want to develop characters, or science, or reason, or logical and rational thinking. They want to sexually indoctrinate and groom children by causing to act and behave based on inappropriate and irrational feelings and emotions which they are not permitted to resist. Look at how the morbidly obese women could not resist committing suicide and what it represents as a metaphor. -- The True Doctor https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCngrZwoS0n21IRcXpKO79Lw "To be woke is to be uninformed which is exactly the opposite of what it stands for." -William Shatner
