The plot is fantastic. This is one of the most important episodes in the series, because Paradox is one of the most important chsracters. Yes it is based on Doctor Who, but it is its own thing, and not just a rip of. Paradox is such a great character it makes the episode by himself. The other characters is great too, and there is never a point where I feel bored. The story is so original, and paradoxes origin so one of the most interesting I havve ever seen in a cartoon. Just an incredible episode.

Perfect

Paradox is a bit inspired by Doctor Who, but since "resemblance" ends there, Pradox manages to be such a well-developed character in this episode that it makes it even better, and the origin of the paradoxes is magnificent. In addition to being an episode that adds a lot to the story with one of the best "plots" the animation and the trait are just the icing on the cake, and it's amazing how this trait matched the series in general again about the episode . Kevin and Gwen shine even more in this episode, Kevin exudes charisma and Gwen with her way of being . Ben continues with his evolution as a character, getting more serious and mature and still with the unimaginable charisma.
