This one's weird, for starters when it Jack recording this, the previous ones have seemed to be in the modern day, but this is about the future and seemingly recorded in the future with talking about Ood Operation in the present tense. Not a major problem, but just takes me out of it a bit.

The start of it also almost reads like a sales pitch for the Ood, but then every so often stopping to say 'but ACTUALLY something's WRONG', before then actually giving the details as to why they're dangerous in the back half of the short. It's all just a bit clunky.

Finally the way it tries to build up the mystery of what's causing the red eye phenomenon, when not only does the audience already know, but Jack really should, and the short shows footage of the brain like three seperate times.
