The Caretaker

Doctor Who Season Eight is still going on, and this time with The Caretaker. Sorry that this post took so long, I didn't watch the episode when it first came out, and haven't had much time since then either. This episode was aired on the 27th of September, and the Doctor decided to go undercover.

Clara had been going back and forth between saving the world in new places with the Doctor, and dates with Danny Pink, Clara's new boyfriend. The Doctor finds out that there is trouble at the school Clara works at, and also wants to find out who Clara is dating.

He goes undercover as the Caretaker for her school.

This episode shows that the Doctor cares for Clara very much, and he doesn't want just anybody to hang out with her. When the Doctor first meets Danny Pink, he doesn't like him, Danny Pink isn't good enough for Clara. However by the end of the season, the Doctor acknowledges that Danny Pink is off to a good start for being good enough for Clara.

I really liked this episode. It was interesting to see how the Doctor and Danny reacted when they met each other. This episode was funny how Danny was suspicious of the Doctor, or the Caretaker as he knew him as then, by finding his electronics and placing them into the gymnasium. I also liked how at the end of the episode, Danny wants to make sure that the Doctor doesn't push Clara to far. He told Clara that if she is pushed to far, she would tell him, and she would stop time traveling with the Doctor for her own sake.

This episode almost predicts that the Doctor will push Clara to the point where she doesn't want to travel with him anymore.
