 *The Osterhagen key is either a reset button or a suicide weapon. Also, why would Harriet Jones of all people be opposed to using a reset button? Is it possible that it may be linked to the TARDIS? [[UNIT]] know what the TARDIS is.
 *Assuming the ambiguous theories of a '[[Botched Regeneration]]' are plausible, we could be seeing an early version of the [[Valeyard]]. In [[The Trial Of A Time Lord]], the Valeyard is seen as an incarnation of the potentially evil side of the Doctor between the twelfth and thirteenth regenerations. Though a couple of regenerations early, the "Osterhagen key" roughly translates as 'graveyard' or 'boneyard' (insults that the [[Sixth Doctor]] used against the Valeyard in '[[The Trial of a Time Lord]]').
-*[[K-9]] makes an appearance. ''Likely as we know Sarah Jane Smith survives, and K-9 could save her.''
+*[[K-9]] makes an appearance. ''Unlikely as the rights to K-9 have been sold, meaning the BBC cannot use him.''
 * The Doctor's hand is still in the jar, and is still bubbling, as we were pointedly reminded in a shot near the start of the previous episode. Since it contains his biological code and is part of his tenth incarnation, it may prevent him from changing form.
-* [[Sylvester McCoy]] to make a surprise reappearance... He was interviewed as part of Doctor Who Confidential for "[[The Stolen Earth]]" in his [[seventh Doctor]] costume, whereas [[Peter Davison]] was interviewed in "Civilian" clothing, rather than his cricket gear of the [[fifth Doctor]]. - perhaps an unsubtle hint relating to a botched/inverted [[regeneration]].  We've never seen the Doctor executed by a [[Dalek]] before (or have we?), perhaps he could go back a few incarnations?'' Sylvester McCoy wasn't wearing any version of his 7th Doctor costume in Doctor Who Confidential, although his hat is possibly the same one (as it originally belonged to him).  The block writing used for the "to be continued" at the end credits is reminiscent of Sylvester McCoy era.''

-* Dalek Caan in the previous episode talks of the coming Doctor as the "threefold man". This could give us a clue. We may well have three doctors in this episode. <i>Perhaps this could include [[the Doctor's Daughter]]; [[Jenny]], as she is in effect a clone of the Doctor, and therefore a part of [[The Doctor]] himself. (She is not a clone of the Doctor. She is his daughter. Granted, a daughter made using only his DNA, but she will still have different genes to him to due to processes relating to reproduction which are too complicated to go into here.)</i> Of course, the Doctor could regenerate into someone else, and DT might regrow from the hand in the jar, thus creating two Doctors and Jenny, hence 'threefold man'.

This includes [[Jenny]], as she is in effect a clone of the Doctor, and therefore a part of [[The Doctor]] himself. ''Jenny is not a clone of the Doctor but his daughter born through asexual reproduction. She is still part of him, being his daughter, but she is not a clone of him.''
-*[[Dalek Caan]]'s insane rantings of "prophecy" states that the Doctor's "most faithful companion" would die. ''This would seem to be Capt. [[Jack Harkness]] as he has been there for 3 out of 4 final stories, but can also die as often as RTD requires. This isn't true as Jack is the face of boe and lives on to millions of years later. Dalek Caan's prophecy-Isn't Sarah-Jane the most loyal as she did wait all those years to see him again?. No Jack waited over 100 years to meet the right Doctor at the right time, meaning that he out of all the companions is also the most likely to know about future Doctors. Jack spoke about the regeneration process but he was not present on screen for the last regeneration. He has the best understanding of time and may well have traveled with a future Doctor, like River Song, just not talked about it.It could be Donna as she did spend a lot of time and effort looking for him, or even Rose she did cross an entire universe to find him. Rose also said to Donna in [[Turn Left]] that she is the "most important Human in all creation" as the Doctor owes his life to her and it would seem she is the most important at the moment. It is unlikely to be Captain Jack as it has been revealed that Captain Jack is the Doctors old friend [[Face of Boe]] which we seen die in another episode.''(Note Captain Jack is RUMORED to be "the real" Face of Boe, as this has yet to be confirmed.)
+*[[Dalek Caan]]'s insane rantings of "prophecy" states that the Doctor's "most faithful companion" would die.
-* Again we're told in the previous episode that there's something on Donna's back - after the events of [[Turn Left]] (and also long before, in [[Planet of the Ood]]). ''This gives a means to do a "reset" as the entire season could itself be an aberrant time line being ridden by ''another'' time beetle. - Though hopefully not, as that's almost as bad a writing as "You mean it was all a dream?" ''The Shadow Proclamation said there WAS something on her back. The Time Beetle is dead and everything that's happened is happening in the true reality.''

 *In [[The Stolen Earth]] when Donna is sitting on the stairs of the [[Shadow Proclamation]] she is seen wearing a large black ring, very possibly the same ring that was the Master's. Although it is unlikely he will appear, it may have something to do with the fact that it will be Donna's last episode. ''The Master's ring was VERY different to the one Donna was wearing. The Master's was green, whereas Donna's was black.''
-*When Donna is sitting on the stairs, there is a drumming sound, right before the Shadow Proclamation Woman talks to her about becoming something new.  She then wipes her eyes, showing off a very large black ring (which is not new; it has been on Donna's hand in almost every episode).  As well, when the Sub Wave network starts, there is a tone similar to that used by the Master's Archangel Network in the Series 3 finale, all possible hints at Donna having some level of involvement with The Master. ''The drumming sound when Donna is on the stairs is a heartbeat, possible a slight echoed beat of two hearts, but it's not the same as the Master's beat.''

+*As Sarah Jane is about to be exterminated Mickey suddenly teleports and saves her while Jackie does the same with Torchwood. ''Possibly, although Jackie will probably have more help than being on her own to stop a Dalek ivasion of Torchwood.''
-* Davros claims reality is to be destroyed... and in Turn Left The Doctor mentions realities bending around Donna... perhaps this could lead to her exit... Perhaps Donna is still in "The Library"? This would give an explanation to Donna's face on the node in The Library. ''unlikely, as anyone who was saved into the computer was able to have their faces on those nodes. Donna's lover inside the computer had his face for her outside on a node, but he was also restored. Also, if this was true then everyone else would still be in the library, which we know is false. The only remaining people inside the library computer are River Song and her companions and C.A.L.'' No-one else needs to be in the library if Donna has been "saved"
+*Davros claims reality is to be destroyed, and in Turn Left The Doctor mentions realities bending around Donna. This is because Donna is still in "The Library". ''Unlikely, as the only remaining people inside the library computer are River Song and her companions and C.A.L.''
-*The planet where the Bees' are heading is called by the Doctor "Miasimia Goria".  This is the same planet Rani used for experiments in "The Mark of the Rani".''wrong ... the planet was "MELLISSA MAJORA" ... which means Big BEE .''
+*The events/characters of the "Trial of a Time Lord" may factor in--maybe the Valeyard.  The Doctor mentioned in "The Stolen Earth" that the earth had been moved once before, and the only time we've seen that happen was in "Trial of a Time Lord."  ''Actually, the Doctor states that someone attempted to move the Earth before, but states that it couldn't have been them.  He is, of course, referring to the events of [[Dalek Invasion of the Earth]] in which the Daleks attempt to convert the Earth into an interstellar war machine.''

+*Ostenhagen key could quite possibly be a self-destruct function for the earth. ''Highly unlikely, as when Martha was given the key, her general suggested that it was for the good of the human race rather than its destruction.''
-*In the first episode of the series Donna states that she'd been searching for the Doctor for a while. This may have lead her to the Masters dead body at the end of series 3 making her the woman that (unwittingly) found his ring. If Donna is the companion that dies in this episode then the Doctor may find the ring in her pocket and keep it aboard the TARDIS until some time in the future in which it will play a part in the Master's ressurection in a future series. This theory is somewhat supported by the fact that Donna's computer played the tune of the Master's drumbeat (or a tune very similar) when the subwave network started, showing a clear link between the 2 characters. ''This is very unlikely. The character who took the ring was clearly seen with red nail polish(Implying that it is Lucy Saxon), and laughs maniacally. This is completely unlike Donna. In addition, Donna would have no reason to take the ring, nor would she have knowledge of the ring or the Master. Also it was a heartbeat not a drum beat, Donna's heartbeat was in groups of two whereas the Master's drumbeats was in groups of 4. Actually this makes alot of sense. No one said anything about Donna's heartbeat. The noise they were referring to was the noise made by Donna's computer not her heart. Also it was never implied that the person who found the ring was Lucy Saxon. In fact it was left diliberatly ambiguous so that future writers could create whatever story they wanted when bringing him back and I'm fairly sure that it was the master that was heard laughing, not the woman.''
+*Harriet Jones is infact in conniving with the Daleks against the Doctor. She used the subwave network on Davros' orders to bring the Doctor to earth. The warning not to use the key was given on Davros' request as it would destroy Daleks. ''Unlikely, as Penelope Wilton is not credited to appear in this episode. Furthermore Martha was unwilling the use the key when it was given to her.''
-*Ostenhagen key could quite possibly be a self-destruct function for the earth. Quite literally, the earth would explode, or another theory would be that it launches all them there nukes. ''Highly unlikely, why should destroying the human race save them?'' It wouldn't, it would put them out their misery, so to speak.
+*The TARDIS sacrafices itself, and in some way, Donna saves it by fusing herself with the heart, becoming the new TARDIS heart. Support for this theory being that she's mentioned many times that she " wants to travel with the Doctor forever." What better way? Also, in the BBC trailer for Journey's End, she's seen alone in the TARDIS, it being on fire and in danger. The fortune teller in Turn Left, in fear, asked her, "What will you become?" In The Stolen Earth, the lady at the Shadow Proclaimation building said, " I'm sorry for your loss," a possible loss of humanity or freedom. ''This would justify the phrase "'everlasting' death for the companion" by Dalek Cann.''

+*The word 'osterhagen key' also is an anagram spelling 'earth gone' this suggests that the key is not just a suicide weapon for humans but for the earth.

+*There may be something related to Rose's looking in the heart of the TARDIS back with the ninth doctor. I say this because when she destroyed the Daleks she said,"You are tiny. I can see the whole of time and space, every single atom of your existence, and I divide them.  Everything must come to dust. All things, everything dies." This seems similar to the Davros quote above so it may tie in.

+*Donna unwittingly activates the Ostenhagen Key, which defeats [[Davros]] and destroys all the [[Daleks]]. The Doctor is forced to remove her memories of this event as she is overcome with remorse for destroying an entire race. ''Unlikely as Martha is in posscession of the key, and due to the danger of using, she is unlikely to put it in a place where Donna could activate it.''
