The latest excursion with the Doctor and Clara sets a fantastic tone for the rest of the season.
Showrunner Stephen Moffat takes up the pen to write an amazing piece which takes us to new times and places.
The last time Moffat wrote an episode was the season opener, "Deep Breath".
I wasn't too fond of that one.
But, I think part of the problem with "Deep Breath" was Moffat had too much he wanted to stuff into Peter Capaldi's first outing as the Doctor.
"Listen" brings back the Steven Moffat of old.
Finally, we are treated to award winning episodes like "The Empty Child", "The Girl in the Fireplace" and "Blink".
All of them showcased Moffat at his storytelling best.
The latest adventture also gives a little more insight into Danny Pink who is rumored to become an eventual companion.
Capaldi once again proves why he belongs as the pilot of the TARDIS.
Jenna Coleman shines as Clara and continues to grow into an "incredible" companion.
I don't want to give away anymore, because some of the surprises will knock your socks off.
I will simply say, it's the first episode of the season which must not be missed.
Now, sadly, one episode does not a streak make, so it might be too soon to say whether the season is heading in the right direction.
Fortunately, the trailer for this week's "Time Heist" looks pretty good, especially with the possible return of Missy from episode one.
So what did you think of the episode? Let me know in the comments...
