When Cline captured the Doctor and Donna he took them see Cobb who assumed they, along with Jenny, were pacifists from the Eastern Zone. He praises Jenny for her insight and defending her right to exist to Donna and the Doctor saying that they needed more like her. Cobb asked the Doctor to join them in [[Human-Hath War|the war]] against the alien [[Hath]]. He sought "[[the Source (The Doctor's Daughter)|the Source]]" and it was his mission to get it. He believed the Source would give him the power to kill every Hath on the planet. When the Doctor refused to help, and instead spoke of stopping him, Cobb had the Doctor and Donna arrested along with Jenny for not supporting him in the war. | When Cline captured the Doctor and Donna he took them see Cobb who assumed they, along with Jenny, were pacifists from the Eastern Zone.

The [[Human-Hath War]] is revealed to have only lasted seven days and that the myth created around the Source was the result of the generations from the [[progenation machines]]. It is not explained how while the other troops are all young adults whereas Cobb appears to be middle-aged, and yet still believes in the myths around the Source. [[Russell T Davies]] suggested in the pod cast that, as well as creating a child from a parent, the machines were be able to clone important figures. Therefore Cobb could be the fifth Cobb of that week. | The [[Human-Hath War]] is revealed to have only lasted seven days and that the myth created around the Source was the result of the generations from the [[progenation machines]].
