Unsure about continuing to travel with the new Doctor, Clara is convinced by a phone call from the Eleventh Doctor. The Half-Face Man falls to his death from a hot-air balloon, and the other robots go lifeless. The Doctor confronts the Half-Face Man, claiming the Half-Face Man does not want to continue his existence because of how many times his body was replaced. Upon Clara's prompting, the robots' cyborg control node, the Half-Face Man, reveals that he is trying to reach the "promised land" and killed the dinosaur to use her as parts for his computer. The Doctor and Clara are called to a restaurant, where they find it is part of a spaceship that crashed in the past and is filled with humanoid robots. After the spontaneous combustion of the dinosaur, the Doctor and Clara take on the case of the dinosaur's death and similar recent human combustions. The Doctor rests at the Paternoster Gang's residence to recover. The newly- regenerated Twelfth Doctor, and Clara, emerge from the TARDIS. In Victorian London, a dinosaur spits out the TARDIS onto the banks of the River Thames. #DR HOUSE SAISON 8 STREAMING SERIES#As with the previous series, Series 8 consists mainly of standalone episodes the series finale was the first two-part story after " The Rebel Flesh" / " The Almost People" from the midpoint of Series 6 in 2011.
