This marks the first time that the [[TARDIS translation circuit]] hasn't worked properly for the Doctor's companion on their first trip to a place where their native language isn't spoken; the Doctor could understand [[Dor'een]] perfectly, but all Clara could hear was aggressive barking. However, Clara could understand Merry's humanoid species and when everyone sang. This could have been one of the TARDIS's signs that it didn't like Clara ([[The Hybrid|for a ''very'' good reason]]), along with refusing to open the door for her; not being able to understand aliens would scare Clara into never staying on as a companion. | This marks the first time that the [[TARDIS translation circuit]] hasn't worked properly for the Doctor's companion on their first trip to a place where their native language isn't spoken; the Doctor could understand [[Dor'een]] perfectly, but all Clara could hear was aggressive barking.
