It pains me, I blame everyone else.

Okay, I actually find it somewhat refreshing and/or hilarious when a writer eats some humble pie about some narrative nonsense.

I have to admit, I didn't even notice this specific occurrence - by this point, it was kind of a layer cake of nonsense, which...is not unusual for RTD season finales.

This sounds a lot like a defense of the episode, but it's not meant to be, not really. I just don't mind this specific narrative cheat, I guess.

Yes, in the face of a blizzard of silliness and handwaving, that one went right by me (and the other people I went to see it with). We may have just been numb at that point.
