- You may be looking for The Sin Eaters (audio story).
Sin-Eaters was the fifth story in the Doctor Who: The Ninth Doctor comic series, published in 2017.
Summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Doctor is arrested for the murder of Tara Mishra and is taken to Hesguard Institute, a place that prides itself on being able to cure its patients of their criminal urges. But when they try their "treatment" on the Doctor, it becomes apparent that their cure isn't as effective as it would seem.
Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]
Part one[[edit] | [edit source]]
Director Highsmith woke up with the announcement that an Earth Examiner was coming to the Hesguard Institute. Upon greeting the examiner, Rose Tyler in disguise, she proceeded to give Rose a tour around the facility, where Rose saw the Doctor.
Highsmith introduced the Doctor, who was being restrained by two guards, as patient 280. She stated that along with the murder of Tara Mishra, he had committed several other crimes and was highly dangerous.
The Doctor was then subjected to the Bad Wolf Process, which transferred his negative emotions to a Sin-Eater. Director Highsmith stated that the Doctor had the "worst case of Multiple Personality Disorder on record," due to the faces of the Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, and War Doctors appearing on the Sin-Eater.
Rose sent Highsmith away, and talked to the Doctor, who became incoherent and started talking about why he ended the Time War before having a seizure.
Highsmith sent Rose away, before checking her warrant and discovering that Rose was not who she said she was. Rose was taken back to her quarters by a patient known as Annie (Sin-Eaters). Shortly thereafter, Rose was arrested for impersonation of an Earth official.
Meanwhile, Highsmith attempted to interrogate an incoherent Doctor, who was worried about Tara. Simultaneously, his Sin-Eater became sentient, broke out of their restraints, and choked a guard all the while demanding to know where Tara was. The Sin-Eater's body had changed to have the faces of the Second, Fifth, Eighth, and Ninth faces.
After attacking the guards attempting to dispose of him, he broke through a wall to a hallway that Rose was being escorted through by a guard. The guard tried to shoot him, and the Doctor punched him in the face.
Part two[[edit] | [edit source]]
to be added
Characters[[edit] | [edit source]]
Worldbuilding[[edit] | [edit source]]
- The Doctor is put under the Bad Wolf Process.
- Rose pretends to be an Earth Examiner.
- Jackie used to love The Magic Roundabout.
- The Doctor's Sin-Eater shows the faces of his second, fifth, seventh and eighth incarnations as well as that of the War Doctor.
- One of the former patients murdered 98 inhabitants of the planet Redron-Seven.
- Franku Miorito and Gana Medeiros were former patients of director Highsmith.
Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Despite the Doctor being incarcerated at Remand Station Mackay-One in the 23rd century at the end of Slaver's Song, this story is set at Hesguard Institute in the 53rd century.
Continuity[[edit] | [edit source]]
- When delirious due to the effects of the Bad Wolf Process, the Doctor utters the words "no more". This is the vow that the War Doctor made at the end of the Time War. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)
- Hesguard Institute was renovated from Stormcage Containment Facility, the organization which also imprisoned the Doctor's future wife, River Song, a century earlier. (TV: The Pandorica Opens)
- The Doctor jettisons the Matryoshka drive, and his "brother" with it, into the Void. Its use in the Battle of Canary Wharf would result in his next incarnation's forced separation from Rose. (TV: Doomsday)
- The Doctor promotes his jettison with "for my next trick", as he did while saving Gallifrey and as he would do before landing on the Dalek flagship. (TV: The Day of the Doctor, The Parting of the Ways)
- After the institute is destroyed, Sin-Eaters become available for cheap on the market. Addison Delamar would come to use them in her plot to obtain the Doctor's memories. (COMIC: Secret Agent Man, The Bidding War)
