Well, now we know that Clara was a person before being a mystery… Or I do think so… The episode left me with a lot of unanswered questions, though it was still smashing, so I'm kind of confused, lol.
Heh, I feel the same way! I think we've established that the parents we saw in Rings were her... original ones? Still not sure whether "I blew into this world on a leaf" is exactly what it sounds like and not a reference to her parents' love story -- I mean, literally blowing in on a leaf makes no sense, but Moffat would do that. /shrug

Someone else did a lot of posting.
Yup, it goes: post nothing for months and months, then post all the things the day of the finale. Basically. :D
