And yet it was by far the episode I enjoyed the most since Church on Ruby Road. The script has some glaring issues for sure, some of which might be fixed in the next season (I don’t believe in that too much though), but at least it mostly felt like I was watching Doctor Who for once.

I think the running around, good music and pacing, some interesting character moments and great visual effects did it for me. Sutekh’s design and vibe are fantastic and I thought the scene where Ruby meets her mom itself worked really well.

If the rest of the season was more like this episode, I would have enjoyed it a whole lot more.

its so odd that people struggle to understand the downfall of gods because they spend time obsessing so much over one ordinary person because they can't comprehend it. like vanity of the all powerful is not even a new concept.
