The Doctor has never noticed his wooden spaceship is Bigger on the Inside.Complete with the Doctor mockingly mouthing along when Martha says it. Bigger on the Inside: Can't be an official Companion if you don't mention it.Not knowing how to do that she tries reading the operator's manual, but time being of the essence, eventually gives up and plums for the big yellow button. Big Red Button: Martha is told to activate a radioactive machine to take down one of the slabs.Beethoven Was an Alien Spy: The Doctor used to have a laser spanner, but it was stolen by Emmeline Pankhurst.The Doctor tricks her into drinking his blood, thus making her look like an alien through the bio-scanner, albeit different from what she actually is. Assimilation Backfire: Finnegan drinks human blood so the Judoon will think she's a human when bio-scanned. Arc Words: There's "Vote Saxon" signs in the alley at the end, and Mr. Arbitrary Scepticism: The first time Martha meets the Doctor, she hears that he has two heartbeats and instantly accepts that the hospital has been transported to the Moon and that the Judoon are aliens, but refuses to believe the Doctor is an alien until a Judoon scanner confirms it.Her modifications to the MRI would've sent out a World-Wrecking Wave from the moon which would've fried every last brain stem within a range that included the side of the Earth facing the moon at the time (and only that side). Apocalypse How: Had the Plasmavore won, her Evil Plan would've caused a Class 1 in terms of humanity, likely a Class 4 in terms of the Earth's biosphere.Thankfully, the Judoon aren't completely merciless and teleport the hospital back once they're done. Almost Out of Oxygen: The force-field keeps the air in, but it starts running out quickly.Alliterative Name: The plasmavore chose an alliterative alias: Florence Finnegan.All Gravity Is the Same: We're given no explanation why the hospital has the same gravity after being brought to the moon.With those negotiations over with, they're on their way. The Doctor promises her one little trip, just for fun, and they awkwardly agree that she's not there to replace Rose. She refuses at first, but then, in response to her question of how he would prove that the TARDIS can travel through time, he steps into the TARDIS, disappears, and reappears with his tie off. In return for saving his life, the Doctor offers Martha a quick tour of the galaxy in his TARDIS. The Rhinos kill the plasmavore and Martha revives the Doctor, just in time for him to reverse the doomsday MRI scanner and save humanity. Martha finds the plasmavore just as she drains the Doctor dry, which, unbeknownst to her, renders her decidedly alien on any bio-scan.
