- How did Vinder end up on the Metal Planet in 1916, when his previous appearances were all in 2021 and there was never a hint he could time travel?
- The Thirteenth Doctor's final words are "Tag, you're it." However, in the game of tag there are no tag-backs.
- 1) 13 didn't know it was going to be a 'tag back' so her saying it is fine. 2) Tag back only applies to the immediate predecessor, Tennant was 3 before Jodie.
- As a playground game played predominantly by children, tag doesn't have any set rules. Perhaps the variant that the Doctor grew up with on Gallifrey does not forbid tag-backs.
- Yaz doubted her Doctor. She was wrong. The Dalek Traitor zero set her up. He was set up by the Dalek Commander. How'd you think Yaz react to finding out she was wrong about it? Perhaps a reaction simialr to the 6th Doctor realising he was wrong about Lytton. ANd how'd you think she react to finding out ehr doubt betrayed the Doctor, as Tegan did by running away?
