Agreed about the frog scene ruining the episode. So jarring and difficult to take seriously even when the context is supposed to be sad or bittersweet regarding the Solitract being lonely. The juxtaposition doesn't work in this case. Can you imagine how more strong that scene would be if it was a figure of something else in The Doctor's past? They almost had with The Doctor pushing the solitract when it had the form of Hannes' mother. I also think its such a weird choice to have Graham be the only one to see Grace and not Ryan. It feels like a missed opportunity for them both to get closure with Grace. I feel like it would have been more impactful if they both saw her and comforted each other over seeing her again. It would make the "grandad" moment more meaningful if Ryan was the one to snap Graham out of it. Yaz also gets crumbs once again. Hannes' dad is awful too even with the circumstances. Yeah. Pretty middle of the road episode of me. Nothing terrible but nothing great either outside of the Grace and mirror solitract scenes.
