Episode 7: The Unicorn and the Wasp

THE UNICORN AND THE WASP

EPISODE: 198

AIR DATE: May 17, 2008

ALIENS/MONSTERS: Vespiform

OTHER CHARACTERS: Agatha Christie, Lady Eddison, Colonel Hugh, Reverend Golightly, Redman, Professor Peach, Greeves

LOCATION: London area; December 8, 1926

PLOT:

The Doctor and Donna arrive at a dinner party hosted by Lady Eddison and her husband Colonel Hugh. As they make their way through with the psychic paper, the main guest arrives and introduces herself to them and Agatha Christie. The Doctor looks at the newspaper and realizes they are on the date of when Agatha Christie disappeared for ten days with no recollection. Then the maid comes running out screaming that someone has been murdered in the Library.

Agatha and The Doctor work together to interview the household as Donna looks for more clues. This to me was a cool episode of Clue/Agatha Christie Novels combined. As Donna is snooping around, a giant wasp trying to attack her and she runs to the Doctor. While the three are putting together pieces to a puzzle, The Doctor learns he has been poisoned by cyanide and has a quite funny and entertaining scene where the Doctor is trying to detox himself. Later that evening and dinner, The Doctor reveals he has laced all the soup with pepper, which acts as a pesticide with wasps.

Finding out several secrets about everyone in the house hold, The Unicorn was revealed and gave back Lady Eddison's necklace "the Firestone". Turns out the man who gave her that necklace also gave her a child that she gave up for adoption. Also turns out the man was not a man at all, but was an alien called a Vespiform. Her son enraged that he has been discovered turns into the wasp. Agatha lures it away with the necklace and throws it into the lake. The wasp follows and drowns. The trauma hence gave Agatha amnesia and the Doctor and Donna dropped her off at the Harrogate Hotel ten days late. In the TARDIS, The Doctor Shows Donna a copy published in the year five billion of an Agatha Christie book, showing her popularity even then.
