Class: Ep 7 “The Metaphysical Engine, Or What Quill Did” Teasers (Set #2)
Clint Hassell brings you the second set of hints and teasers for the seventh episode of Doctor Who’s new spin-off.
- 1. The poem Quill quotes is titled “Home.” It is by Warsan Shire, a Somali-British poet who, in 2013, became London’s first Young Poet Laureate. “Home” discusses the terrible circumstances refugee parents must face in order to be willing to uproot their families and flee their homelands.
- 2. The Shadow Kin didn’t kill Quill’s lover.
- 3. Enslavement was not the worst thing they did to Quill.
- 4. Her metaphorical “hell” is his literal Heaven.
- 5. Hello, homoerotic subtext!
- 6. “This . . . will be horrible.”
- 7. On the face of it, it’s a really impressive special effect, but eye suspect most people will just be grossed out by it.
- 8. “Don’t worry about it. The last person I kissed was a robot.”
- 9. “Oh, yes, it’s way bigger on the inside.”
- 10. “Oh, I’d rather swim in my own vomit.”
