This one was a lot of fun, caveats included. To me it felt like there was a parallel between Noor Inayat Khan and the Master in the Paris scenes…which went to a very dark place in the end. (I also felt like his character in that sequence was a bit of a tip of the hat to Christoph Waltz's character in Inglourious Basterds. Machine-gunning the floor is exactly what he does at the beginning of that movie.)

I definitely see what you mean about the parallels with Ten; I felt them particularly strongly in the final scene where she tells them things, oddly enough. Maybe it's that they both aren't being entirely truthful with themselves about who they are.
