History Recap / DoctorWhoS28E11FearHer

* AbusiveParents: Chloe's dead/reborn-as-a-scribble dad. Based on his drawing, he was a terror.

* ArtAttacker: Chloe/the alien traps people in her pictures.

* CreepyChild: Chloe draws people and then they disappear off the face of the Earth. She threatens to do that to ''her mother...''

* FullNameBasis: The alien constantly refers to her host as Chloe Webber.

* ItsAllAboutMe: The alien threatens and disposes of anyone (and nearly ''everyone'') that comes between it and Chloe, even willing to threaten Chloe herself with her worst nightmare to keep them together. Its last words before going home are telling Chloe it loves her… and then leaves her to her fate with the drawing of her father it created.

* NothingIsScarier: The drawing-come-to-life of Chloe's father is never shown. All we get is some red light and shadows, banging on a door, and his shouted threats.

* ApocalypseHow: After apparently not seeing a stadium full of people as enough, Chloe attempts to draw the whole Earth.

* ArtAttacker: Chloe/the alien traps people in pictures.

* ChewingTheScenery: "IT'S YOUR FATHER, AND I'M COMING TO HURT YOU."

* CreepyChild: Chloe draws people and then they disappear. She threatens to do that to her mother.

* DeFictionalization: Matt Smith carrying the Olympic Torch.

* PosthumousCharacter: Chloe's father died before all this alien business.

For the next six years, Creator/DavidTennant was [[{{Defictionalization}} required to show up for the real deal]], with even groups on Facebook and [[http://www.petitiononline.com/Drwh2012/petition.html petitions]] asking for it. In the end, Tennant was not involved. However, a [[Creator/MattSmith different]] [[TheNthDoctor incarnation]] of the Doctor [[http://www.metro.co.uk/olympics/900154-matt-smith-set-to-carry-olympic-torch-in-echo-of-doctor-who-plot has indeed carried the 2012 Olympic torch for a leg]].

* OneBookAuthor: The sole acting credit for Abisola Agbaje (Chloe).

* ItsAllAboutMe: The alien threatens and disposes of anyone (and nearly ''everyone'') that comes between it and Chloe, even willing to threaten Chloe herself with her worst nightmare to keep them together. It's last words before going home are telling Chloe it loves her… and then leaves her to her fate with the drawing of her father it created.

* ThePowerOfLove: The MonsterOfTheWeek ''needs'' it -- they're children who need to be loved, or they'll ''die'' without it

* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Despite telling Chloe outright it loves her, the alien instantly dumps her and leaves her to deal with it's recreation of her father alone as soon as it can go home.

'''Rose:''' I was attacked by a... pencil scribble?

The Doctor takes Rose to see the opening ceremonies of the 2012 London Olympics, landing in a small development outside of London. They quickly find a few things amiss: children and pets have gone missing, and a road crew, preparing for the running of the Olympic torch through the area, is baffled by a spot in the road that causes cars passing over it to stall out. As they examine the area, they are attacked by... a ball made from squiggly lines?

The broadcast of the opening ceremonies has started, but Chloe, still angry, draws out the entire crowd at the scene; the announcers are stunned when the entire crowd disappears. But Chloe is not done yet and, clearing away a section of the wall, starts drawing the entire planet Earth. Rose tries to get Chloe to stop without success, but she spots the Doctor's picture on the wall, where he points to the Olympic torch. Rose understands and races outside, throwing the pod at the passing torch. The Isolus says goodbye to Chloe, departs her body, and reunites with the pod, and all of the disappearances begin to reverse: the children, the stadium audience...

...and Chloe's horrific drawing of her father. As they flee from the animated figure, Trish and Rose are able to calm Chloe enough to dispel the drawing, leaving them safe.

* ArcWords: "...the battle of Torchwood."

* BreatherEpisode: WordOfGod says that the first choice of [[Series/LifeOnMars2006 Matthew]] [[Series/AshesToAshes Graham,]] the episode's writer, was a big, epic story with spaceships and whatnot, but RTD specifically asked for this episode to be light and kid-friendly to contrast with the dark season finale (not to mention that the special effects budget is starting to run low).

** The Doctor makes mention of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS28E1NewEarth "a cat in a wimple".]].

* ItsAllAboutMe: The alien threatens and disposes of anyone (and nearly ''everyone'') that comes between it and Chloe, even willing to threaten Chloe herself with her worst nightmare to keep them together. It's last words before going home are telling Chloe it loves her....and then leaves her to her fate with the drawing of her father it created.

* KidsAreCruel: Rose argues this as she and the Doctor discuss his sympathy for Chloe and the alien. The alien itself draws up Chloe's abusive father to protect herself from the doctor... though it's heavily implied Chloe willingly drew it alongside her to keep her protected.

* TemptingFate: "They keep on trying to split us up, but they never ever will. [...] We'll always be okay, you and me." [[Recap/DoctorWhoS28E13Doomsday You just had to say it, Rose]].

* HistoryMarchesOn:
** No, Papua New Guinea didn't shock the world in the shot-put during the actual 2012 Olympics. The gold went to Poland.
** Of course, the entire crowd in the Olympic stadium didn't vanish and suddenly reappear either, and as much as the fans would have liked it, Creator/DavidTennant didn't carry the Olympic torch. AlternateHistory is in full effect here.

* KarmaHoudini: The Isolus never suffers any consequences for nearly destroying the entire planet.

* ShoutOut: The Doctor gives the [[StarTrek Vulcan salute]] and later uses something quite similar to a Vulcan Mind Meld on Chloe.

* HilariousInHindsight / DeFictionalization: Matt Smith carrying the Olympic Torch.

* KarmaHoudini: The Isolus never suffers any consequences or apologizes for nearly destroying the entire planet.

* OneBookAuthor: The (Thankfully) sole acting credit for Abisola Agbaje(Chloe).

* KarmaHoudini: The Isolus never suffers any consequences for its actions, and it's implied that it never will. Child though it may be, it was a petulant, [[ItsAllAboutMe self-centered]] and unreasonable child, and any normal child who behaved in a similar way (on a comparatively human scale) would have been punished severely by any self-respecting parent.

* WhamLine: "I was a dad once" for Rose. And some major FridgeHorror a few moments later, when you realise that depending on whether his family were still alive during the Time War, the Doctor may have killed them when [[WhereIWasBornAndRazed he destroyed Gallifrey]].

* CallBack: The Doctor makes mention of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS28E1NewEarth "a cat in a wimple".]]

* ContinuityNod: The solar flares from "Frontios", and the Doctor as a parent from "An Unearthly Child" to "The Dalek Invasion of Earth".

* ItsAlwaysSpring: Inverted: During the run-up to the Summer Olympics, we can see the actors' breath outside, indicating this was filmed in the Winter.

* AStormIsComing: The Doctor and Rose stop briefly before they leave to point out the storm that's coming... half a decade prior. That's time travel for you.

'''WARNING! THERE MAY BE UNMARKED SPOILERS!'''

* EveryoneLives: Since TheMonsterOfTheWeek doesn't kill anyone, nobody dies this time.

* AbusiveParents: Chloe's dead/reborn-as-a-scribble dad.

* ArtAttacker: Chloe/the alien.

* CreepyChild: Chloe
* EveryoneLives
* FullNameBasis: The alien constantly refers to her as Chloe Webber.
