'Isaac Hayes always gets what he wants, and Charlotte Swift has always resisted submitting to him, only to succumb to his demands to protect her in the end, because she never cared enough about anything to fight for something else. And so Isaac had his true love, polished and gleaming, like so many of his hard-earned trophies.They were content, she was safe, and Isaac was triumphant.'

'But now that Will Furlough is in the post-apocalypse picture, Charlotte's determined to keep him there, or walk out of Isaac's perfect frame all together. Isaac doesn't want to lose her, but now that Charlotte has morphed from being his passive aggressive sweetheart, to his hostile captive, Isaac's got no choice to up the ante to keep her safe.'

'To keep her medicated.'

'To keep her guilt-stricken and indebted to him.'

'To make her his again before Will gets back.'

'She's left him no choice, really and in the end, he knows she'll thank him for rescuing her from herself again.

'After all, the Doctor always knows best, right?'
