I've always liked the ambiguity of whether the Dalek says "This is not life, this is sickness" because it believes Rose's DNA has made it impure and its hatred has made it want to die, or because it recognises that its own Dalek nature is sick, and the human factor has made it realise that it no longer wishes to live like that.

Not enough people appreciate how tragic Daleks are Imagine being a normal person and suddenly your entire species falls into warfare and mutation and hateful genocide… Plus every time a Dalek *kinda* sees the light they’re either disgusted by their own mental metamorphosis or they die before they can be of any use to the universe at large

The Daleks were born killers and lived their lives as killers, but when his mind woke up and he suddenly became an adult, he realized how terrible the weight of the blood on his hands was, and he decided to commit suicide because he was suffering from guilt. The Doctor saw it. That's why he told the Daleks this wasn't a blessing.

Such a stunning scene. On the one hand, the Dalek DID murder hundreds of people the instant he was released. But seeing this poor, pathetic blob of slime...it’s hard not to feel sympathy for him. The very notion of emotion and kindness were so horrible to him that he would rather die...imagine being a species so programmed to hate that death was considered better than even a twinge of empathy. And even then, the Dalek’s last words indicate that, for all of his weapons and screaming and hatred...he’s just a scared creature, terrified of death and all alone in the universe. This is the kind of complexity that Doctor Who brings. I love it!

im not so sure its just the idea of having empathy that makes it kill itself but rather the experience itself.. if you have killed that many ppl and then suddenly feel remorse and empathy for everything u have done that is gunna be pretty unbearable .. suddenly realising the darkness of its existence. Humans are designed to feel empathy for others as this helps with survival/genetic reproduction... however Daleks are genetically programmed to kill therefore simply dont feel empathy at all they are just given an urge to kill everything... in the same way humans are designed to reproduce we are given a sex drive.. its not really even the Daleks fault its literally just their state of mind they probably dont even realise what they are doing is bad because it is designed to feel good for them... just as having sex/ socialising ect feels good for humans.

She picked up all those jagged little pieces the Time War and all his loses had shattered and put them back together with compassion and love. She taught him how to hope and be kind, again. Later on River taught him how to find joy in life, again, as well but Rose taught him that life was worth living, and living kindly, in the first place. The two loves of his life.

@@longanddeadly For some reason KZbin never alerted me to this responses so, late or no, I'll go ahead and answer. I'm not sure why people seem to think there's some kind of competition on who the Doctor loves more between River and Rose. Anyone who has ever lost someone they loved can tell you that finding someone new doesn't replace them in your heart, they just take up a different space in it. After losing River he keeps a picture of her on his desk and still carries the diary as comfort. Rose's room is now a little shrine to her after he lost her that he goes to when he just needs to be alone. He additionally wears roses frequently, most notably on Ten's tie and Eleven's double Albert chain. Both women's legacy is carried on in the Doctor's endless compassion and sense of fun and chaos.

I think I know why the Dalek ordered Rose to order it to die. It felt empathy and it had killed many people, and the feeling of what it had done was too much. That is why it felt like sickness to the Dalek. It would rather die than live with all that pain and darkness. It also does not want to be different and would rather die than change to be like Rose.

Like the Doctor said to the Dalek; Rose did more than regenerate you, you've absorbed her DNA...you're mutating. Mutating into a Dalek with fear, and regret with the deaths it caused. Emotions that it absorbed from Rose when normally Daleks have been engineered and conditioned to have only one emotion, absolute pure hatred for everything that isn't Dalek. In this scene the Dalek too wanted to feel the sun on it's skin and by the sound of the voice it was growing a foundness for Rose and sadness.

Beautifully written scene. Why is it that fantastic writers like Rob Shearman only do the one story where we have to suffer from Mark bloody Gatiss returning every year? As an angsty Tenth Doctor would say "IT'S NOT FAIR!!!" *Smashes table* This episode is probably the finest hour of the New Series as far as I'm concerned. In fact part of me kinda wishes that this would've been the last vestige of the Classic Series being extrapolated to make room for some newer monsters. Bigger divide between Classic and NuWho yes, but one that I feel would've been a great way to pass the torch so to speak given this episode's subtext of how Doctor Who was going to survive in the new era.

Think about it this way: daleks are genetigally engineered to hate everything that isn't a dalek. Humans have evolved and survived by cooperating, thus we need empathy to continue as an species. This dalek has absorbed part of a human's DNA to survive. Empathy and hate are clashing in his mind, he has realized what he has done, but his hate makes him get disgusted at what he has become. This two things together are giving him such a Big headache and such level of existential crisis he'd rather die

This episode blured the line between what makes a dalek a dalek in many ways. We are left wondering if this is a byproduct of their way of viewing things, that purity matter most so contamination inspires hatred in it change. If this disgust of its non-dalek emotions is something fundamental to its biology, to it's very being or if this dalek simply couldn't cope with the burden of emotions. Did it feel guilt...or did it judge that living in a universe without it's own kind was a truly disgusting prospect not worth struggling through. Now that it could feel hope, did it feel the loss of it now that it, the last dalek, has been fundamentally contaminated and ruined. Or did it truly realize the agony of those it exterminated and grew to despite its own existence. Did this dalek...a being who believes that the purer the dalek the higher it was among all things non-dalek feel utter despair. Did it view the idea of living an existence with non-daleks as a man would view being the last human in a world of profane, backwards, mocking mimics of sentient animals and bugs. A divine amongst scum and decide that such a world is not worth enduring. Who knows. I like to think it's a mixture of all of them. I like most is that this episode showed how fundamentally alien a dalek is to...well...almost everything really.

Honestly… this scene made me realise just how much of a victim the Daleks themselves were. Yes Daleks are psychotic, hateful beings bred to kill and destroy anything that aren’t them… but they really don’t know or have the capacity to know any better. Their origins were that of a species wanting to survive a war that was making both sides extinct. Forcing the Daleks themselves to change into… this… mutilated and mutated freaks trapped within a metal shell and brainwashed into becoming the perfect killing machine. This Dalek and every Dalek before and after don’t know any better than to hate and kill and maim and conquer because they were made like that by some psycho eugenicist that managed to weaponise a desperate era to then weaponise his own people. The moment the creature was given a chance to really, truly think for itself it wanted to be free and feel the sunlight. It felt emotions and darkness… maybe even guilt. Some people speculate that the reason it wanted to die there was because it was able to process and feel guilty for all the death and destruction it did instead of being human. It found itself sickening. Everything it done, everything it stood for was disgusting to it. It didn’t want to live like that. To become like Rose so it could deal with the lifetime of guilt and suffering it caused because it was too brainwashed and programmed to do nothing else but killing. It’s a monster and it knew that now. It’s an interesting concept honestly. Pretty much a theory and overthinking but very interesting to think about.

Maybe for just this kind of situation? It seems like absorbing DNA is something the Daleks automatically do. Maybe it’s a built-in failsafe in case they accidentally brush up against a “lesser” (read: anything other than Dalek) species. Or, since the Daleks unquestioningly follow orders, maybe the self-destruct was built in (by Davros or some other force) on the offchance that some Daleks were deemed “impure”; if a Dalek commander issued the order, the follower Dalek would obey immediately. Just a guess!
