Especially since I've been in sageness's viewing chat all evening, and seriously, my internet-heart has grown three sizes. I love fandom people. Hi, relative strangers! Let's talk about Jack Harkness's pants!

1) Lucy Saxon: statistically unlikely to outlive episode. The cliched resolution would be for her to be killed tragically by some unforseen consequence of the Master's scheme, causing the Master to (more commonly) be plunged into madness and despair / (less commonly) demonstrate his callousness.

2) Captain Jack: will he willingly leave the Doctor? Or will it be one of these drop-him-in-Cardiff-without-saying-goodbye dealies? Will there be a poignant moment where he is left behind because the TARDIS won't accept him?

3) They can't kill the Master (permanently). He is way too good a villian to waste.

4) phnelt has a Theory (a theory of tragic awesomeness) about the origin of the Toclafane, which I cannot reveal as I didn't think it up. But I think she's right.

5) As we noted in the chat, Martha's brother Leo will have to reenter the plot (there is a Chekov's Gun thing happening there). This will be the episode where Martha and Ten actually decide to be loyal to each other, instead of this thrown-together, uneven thing they've been doing so far. That is my prediction.

Good night!
