Erika and Steven finish off the second-last story of season 7. Title significance is achieved! Reegan is awesome! The Brig kicks ass! Erika is appalled that S7 is so close to over!

Steven and Erika care so much about Doctor Who that they neglect a game 7 NHL playoff game (until it goes into OT). Liz is awesome; her hat is not. The Doctor is awesome; his clipboard is not.

Erika and Steven make it to their goal — completing every Doctor Who episode through “Doctor Who and the Silurians” Episode 7 before the Verity! recording on March 17th. Mission accomplished!
Humanity survives; the Silurians don’t; the Doctor isn’t happy about it. But Erika is happy to be able to take a bit of a break from Lazy Doctor Who to work on some special Incomparable member bonuses. Fear not though! LDW will be back before too long, when the pace will likely be much more sedate.
