>How do your powers work?
JACQUELINE: “So, Leo - can I call you Leo?”
LEO: “Sure.”
CLARA: “Does Jacqueline shorten to Jack?”
JACK: “No! Well maybe, but not for me. For me, it shortens to… Um…”
LEO: “Jacques?”
JACQUES: “I don’t think so.”
CLARA: “I think our problem here is memory, Jacqueline.”
JACQUELINE: “Yes. Anyway, Leo, how do your powers work? Do bits of your hands die, and that’s why they go grey and numb or something?”
LEO: “No? I don’t have any memories, but I know somehow that there weren’t powers ‘before’, wherever and whenever that was.”
CLARA: “Whoever made this place wants us to ‘USE OUR IMAGINATION’, so maybe the powers require, um, lateral thinking.”
JACQUELINE: “Yeah. They also seem to have a sadistic streak, putting a bunch of people in a box with a guy with a much more dangerous power.”
In full, no-one has any idea what the heck is going on. Par for the course, you suppose.
