So I'm on episode 6: Dalek and the one thing that has always stood out to me in this episode is the sheer compassion Rose shows. Yes she doesn't know what a Dalek is, the Doctor has never mentioned them or told her about them but her first instinct is to help and comfort this being she just saw be tortured.
She see's this hard metal thing, it doesn't look organic in any sense of the word, every other alien she has seen has had a more organic look to them compared to a Dalek. She asks if it's okay and if it's in pain, she reaches out to connect and comfort this cold inanimate object looking being.
Her sheer ability to empathize with others is so rooted into her very being that it changed the Dalek. Which has me wondering how much of Rose was always Bad Wolf from the very start of s1? I seriously love this season and how they interwove the story through out the episodes and I will always wish they delved more into how Bad Wolf could have changed Rose through out their adventures.
