Faced with the anger of both the Doctor and Rose, Cassandra jumps between their minds, eventually possessing one of the plague victims to allow the Doctor to open the lift doors with his sonic screwdriver; however, once safely through, Cassandra takes over Rose’s body once more.

After thinking the TARDIS was lost, facing the Beast and his fear that the Beast’s prophecy could be true, all the walls he’d built against Rose had crumbled like a sandcastle assaulted by the tide.
There was silence for a moment as the Face of Boe watched him, the enigmatic alien’s face full of some emotion the Doctor couldn’t describe.
The Face of Boe's prophecy is interesting and strangely enough he comes across as still being gentle and wise, despite manipulating the Doctor's dreams like that.

The Face of Boe looks just as striking as it did in ‘The End of the World’ and having apparently decided to reuse the character because the creative juices started flowing whilst he was writing its profile for the Monsters and Villains book, Davies puts it to good use here.

The Face of Boe teaser was just annoying -- last year's Bad Wolf breadcrumbs worked so well because they were crumbs: this was more like a sandwich where someone had nicked the filling.
