Omfg I just realized that the doctor's wife in the series 6 episode of the same name was never Idris. It was always River. That was the moment when Idris realized she could put a part of herself in a human and decided to take part in making River Song, making herself River's third parent. That's why in "let's kill Hitler" the doctor said she was the child of the TARDIS. She is literally the child of the TARDIS. That's why he could see River in "the name of the doctor". The telepathic circuits were breaking down in future TARDIS, which allowed Clara to see stuff from an erased timeline, and he was able to see River because the TARDIS helped link them. The TARDIS is tied to River, forever, as her parent, and to the Doctor too, but to a lesser extent.
Also I now understand WTF is wrong with Moffat's brain, he clearly is bipolar and that's how he thinks up this shit, how it makes sense to him (seriously, the connections can only make sense inside a manic brain), and why he always gives up halfway thru story development (snaps back into depression between "coming up with the idea" and "filming it"). Never get better, Moffat. Never get better.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for I have a sonic screwdriver, a tricorder, and a Type 2 phaser.
