“Push, Jump, Fall” offers two new cases. Will (Ramón Rodríguez) and Faith (Iantha Richardson) investigate a murder and theft of a horse at a black rodeo that initially points to a problematic missing rider (Yolonda Ross), however there’s something much bigger going on involving someone using the animals of the rodeo as drug mules.

An unexpected callback to a David Tennant episode, “The Well” deposits The Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) takes Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu) on a foreign world in the far future where a group of soldiers is investigating what went wrong with all the workers who appear to have gone mad leaving only one hearing-impaired miner (Rose Ayling-Ellis) left alive. Easily the creepiest episode of Who‘s run on Disney+, “The Well” plays on several classic tropes involving gun-totting soliders jumping to the wrong conclusion while The Doctor slowly works through  what is hiding behind Aliss (Ayling-Ellis) and how it ties back to his first visit to the world in “Midnight.”
