Summary: Probabilities aren’t set in stone, they change according to circumstances.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Doctor Who, or the characters.





The Doctor has long since learned that ‘improbable’ and ‘impossible’ are two very different things. No matter how unlikely something might seem, it’s a very bad idea to rule it out because for some reason, when he’s involved improbable things have a peculiar tendency to become facts, and anything that probably won’t happen almost inevitably does.


The most sensible thing to do is to just assume anything is possible given the right circumstances and that degrees of probability are constantly changing. It won’t help you anticipate the unexpected, but you’ll be better equipped to deal with it when it happens.

He's very clever ;)

Thank you!

That's why he doesn't have a plan when it comes to getting out of danger?

Could be. If he leaves himself flexible instead of having a set plan, maybe he has a better chance of succeeding.

Thank you!
