Yeah, this. I get that there was some convoluted reason as to why Amy's ganger was different from the other gangers, due to last week's solar storm, but even I had forgotten about that, my kids hadn't even understood it in the first place. He saves a bunch of gangers, telling us they're real people and then in the next minute he dissolves Amy's ganger seemingly purely for dramatic emphasis. Too complex for the kids to grasp, I'm afraid, and it didn't sit right with me AT ALL.
And all it would have taken was like 3-4 lines at the end. Something like:
(after they send the factory leader and the ganger off to see the company) AMY: Does it turn out all right? DOCTOR: Yes. Well, mostly. (quick line why there became 2 strains of Flesh, one that was sentient and was given all the rights of a human and one that was totally dependent on the user's mind)
(before he blows her up) DOCTOR: (his babble about going to get a base reading from the original) This will cut the link with Amy's mind. I hope--I really, really hope you the (sentient strain). And if you're not? I'm sorry, but you need to wake up.
