#who is mrs flood

Mrs Flood???

Doctor Who ep8 (empire of death) spoilers :

1a) dressed like Clara

I just saw this in a small post so heres more characters::::::

Why I think she could be the Master (admittedly I love the Master so I'll see them everywhere and I'm almost always wrong with Doctor Who predictions so consider this advanced warning that she definitely isn't 😂):

1b) says clever boy like Clara

1c) who'd be most likely to imitate Clara? Missy gave her the doctor's number right, so would know Clara's crack

2) Mrs "Flood"? Bigger than a pond or a river. Who's that petty to be like I'm gonna imitate the shit outta everyone the Doctor loves to create maximal drama

3) ohhh I waited so long - if she regenerated after Dhawan she'd have to age, but if she IS missy/the one after Missy (there was an audio drama yes? Explaining there was another female regen after Missy? Did I imagine that) that's again a big wait

4) the Mary Poppins schtick at the end. Missy did that shit too

5) suspiciously nice to Rose but vaguely less nice to Ruby the companion in ep7 - jealousy?? Would be on vibe

6) seen photos of another companion in a big white coat, clearly imitating

7) all the comments "never seen a TARDIS before" etc are very smug and Master-like

8) on brand prediction of incoming doom, deffo will be if you're doing a trap babe

9) pretty unflinching faith when being turned to sand, did not seem concerned at all

Fully willing to admit other people out there in the Whoniverse will be that petty and smug and capable of dicking around, plus could be mimicking the Master in the same way as my previous argument for it being the Master, but I really want it to be true so til I'm proven wrong that's what I'm going with.

My only issue is that I really want them to be played by Matt Smith next time after he said it in that interview, but I'll take whatever 😂

can anyone hear me

Mrs Flood dropping Clara and Missy quotes, wearing Romana's coat and having a water themed name like the walking embodiment of Doctor Who Mysterious Woman Reddit Theories is so funny. The only character she hasn't implied herself to be yet is the Rani.

well I think I speak for everyone when I say. wholeheartedly.

who the fuck is mrs flood

[bobcatblahs]

Reblog to get the most deserving Nan her damn cuppa because she deserves it damn it.

Mrs. Flood you’re the real villain.

[claraoswalds]

And standing on high is the mother and father and other of them all. For the god of all gods has returned. And his names are many. His name has been Set. And Seth. And Sithifer. And his one true name forevermore is... Sutekh.

mrs flood i hope you're the master because deciding to devote your life to narrating your boytoy's adventures and threatening to fight god would be iconic, actually

[melbush]

you’re always WHAT

[thenotoriousscuttlecliff]

Time to clown again.

i feel so bad for cherry in that one scene with mrs flood. you’re tucked up and cozy in your bed, having a leisurely chat with your neighbour while she keeps you company and then out of nowhere she launches into this ominous speech about being careful??? and utters something about a guy who apparently is coming for everyone??? and she has this extremely unnerving look on her face. the sky immediately goes dark. your daughter and granddaughter have gone out but you don’t know where to. the neighbour hasn’t even made you your cup of tea.

Before the finale airs, I want to make a shotout

[ovenproofowl]

So... d'you think Cherry remembered the absolute batshit stuff Mrs Flood told her before they got dusted or we just sweeping that under the rug?

Ruby: “Will I ever see you again doctor”

Well great news Ruby we still have to figure out what the fuck is going on with your neighbor so I imagine he’ll be around

[humanstein]

I am extremely convinced that we are just beginning to unwrap what's going on with Ruby Sunday.

Ruby received the perfect fairy tale outcome—wish-fulfillment-level picture perfect. No New Who companion has had such a mellow and completely amicable resolution.

The mystery of her mother resolves with a blameless biological mother who made the right choice and a father who didn’t know she existed. And the mom who raised her is there too. She gets to have everyone. That happy ending was like a picture-perfect Christmas card, narrated by Mrs. Flood.

Additionally, I will need to rewatch to make sure but it did not seem like winter when they were at the coffee shop, yet it’s snowing at the end when we pan up to Mrs. Flood. Unless that was supposed to be much later...?

They also kinda raised more questions about 73 Yards than they answered. They confirmed that Ruby did not prevent the timeline in 73 Yards and additionally made that timeline essential to uncovering who Ruby's mother was. They also emphasized 73 Yards as the limitations of the TARDIS perception filter. Were the people in 73 Yards seeing beyond a filter on Ruby? Is the TARDIS projecting something on Ruby? Did both Rubys cancel each other's out? What did they see?

I'm completely willing to accept that ending if it’s just what it says on the jar, but I'm very suspicious right now. The "watch where you step" thing hasn't paid off yet either.

Something is still up. I’m starting to think the TARDIS is hiding something about Ruby and might have even conjured up Ruby's mom and dad out of nothing to keep hiding it. I know thats a little crack pot.

To clarify, I really liked the episode and I can certainly appreciate the themes of having her mother be normal and having intense value projected onto her.

However, that doesn't explain why the memory was changing, why it snowed, or why Sutekh would be especially interested. Certainly, the TARDIS has encountered more intriguing mysteries. Additionally, I feel like we would have been shown her face in the time window or the video somehow. It's either something or a bit of a missed opportunity in the script.

I feel like “projections of Ruby's subconscious” and “TV show” might still be on the table. Tell me if I'm off my rocker, but combine this with the fact that we know Ruby will be back, and, well, I think there's much more still to come.

So, basically, I'm thinking this is some sort of fake-out.

[bnxxshthealien]

why is everyone assuming that Mrs Flood is just as evil as Sutekh? We know nothing about her.

Sutekh is the one who waits, the god of gods, he is actual Satan, the most powerful being in the universe, extinguisher of all life, the god of death, father of the toymaker, leader of the pantheon of discord.

And Mrs Flood refused to give Cherry a cup of tea.

Obviously Mrs Flood is much more evil.
