Biogenetic Postulation (10 points)
There has been much speculation throughout the ages concerning the probability that the Face of Boe and the man known as Captain Jack Harkness are indeed one and the same. Various theories have been offered as to the plausibility for this. Now it is your turn. Are you in support of the theory that has the two linked irrevocably together or do you see them as two separate entities? Click on the picture to be taken to the forum, if you will and offer your thoughts on the matter. Please be prepared to back up your theories and feel free to debate among yourselves.
Companion Selection Initialization (10 points)
The time has come to select a companion for your present incarnation. While any of the past companions could certainly be of benefit to you, my calculations have estimated that to run on maximum efficiency, Doctor, it would be best if you were to start out with someone more familiar perhaps. Therefore, I have coordinated with the mainframe of HOL and accessed their data banks to include the files of all personnel and students in attendance. You are to pick someone from within the ranks of HOL to be your companion, Doctor. In order to update my own files, I need their name, house, position they hold, and why you believe they would make the perfect companion for you. What qualities do they possess which would compliment your own? Choose wisely; a companion is sometimes the only thing standing between you and death.
Companion Mentoring Program (10 points)
Being the companion of a Doctor is no easy task and requires more than the average amount of risk. Your chosen companion could definitely benefit from a one-on-one mentoring session with someone who has been in their position. Therefore, I have taken the liberty of setting up a mentoring program for your companion with the past companion of your choice to better prepare them for the trials that lay ahead. Heading this program will be Captain Jack Harkness and his Torchwood team who have graciously promised their protection during this time. You may choose from one of the following destinations to have your companion and their mentor complete their training:
- Earth, present day
-On another planet in a different galaxy
-Earth, year 2525
Once you have picked your location, it is time to pick the past companion you feel would best suit your needs. If I may, I would suggest that you pick your favorite companion from the list provided in the lesson, as in all probability it will make the process run smoother. For my records, I would require that you provide a brief explanation for your choices.
Lastly, it is customary for each Doctor to have rules for their companions. For example, the 4th Doctor insisted that his companions:
"Do exactly what I say", "Stick close to me", and "Let me do all the talking".
What will the rules for your companion be, Doctor? Please provide them to their mentors and then send a copy to me as well via email transmission so that I may have it on file. Thank you.

EXTRA CREDIT (30 points maximum)
Please choose one (1) of the following options:
1. Technology is such that it is making advances constantly. While this is indeed a wonderful thing; sadly for me, this means I find myself on the brink of being obsolete at any given time. If I do not keep my data banks up-to-date, the girl at the library may silence me forever. I am asking for your help. In order to show that I am capable of holding more information, I need to provide data on a companion or ally of the Doctor not covered in this Lesson. If you would help me by offering a decrypted research of one of these individuals, it would certainly not be forgotten.
2. EMERGENCY!!! SYSTEM FAILURE!! My security system has been breached and my records compromised. Soundbytes from various companions and allies that I had stored deep within my data bank have been scrambled; it is imperative that they be placed back in proper order lest they fall into the wrong hands and timelines get crossed-or worse. I would ask, Doctor, for your assistance. Please provide me with the name of the person who spoke the phrase, who they were addressing, and on what occasion (episode name, series/season).
a) "The old regime was destroyed at Canary Wharf. I bebuilt it; I changed it; and when I did that, I did it for you, in your honour."
b) "If you...escaped the Time War, don't you want to know what happened? What happened to the Emperor?"
c) "And that's enough hugging!"
d) "Father dear, I think mummy might need another drink."
e) "The future's not so bad. Have faith in me."
f) "Oh dear. Women, not really my field."
g) "Now just a minute. There's nothing 'only' about being a girl, your Majesty!"
h) "I'll answer back with my bucket over his head!"
i) "What is it? What have you done, you monster?"
j) "Mmm, bouillabaisse, yum-yum."
k) "Well I think it's disgusting, wearing that kind of thing."
l) "You stink of fish!"
m) "Everything has its time. You know that, old friend, better than most."
n) "And let's hope we can trust the physician!"
o) "Her name's Martha! And she's not collateral damage. Not for anyone. Have you got that, G.I. Jane?!"
3) Several of the allies and companions we discussed this session have strong ties to the organizations known as Torchwood and Unit. Both agencies are in need of new recruits to fill their ranks and have come to us with a special request. Naturally, it would benefit us to comply. Pick one of these organizations and create a billboard poster advertising their need for employees/recruits. Remember, my system can only handle encrypted information, so LINK ONLY from a secure provider (photobucket, flickr, etc). Thank you.
