- The Doctor is going to find Oswin earlier in her personal timeline and travel with her before she takes that fated trip on the Alaska.
- The Doctor is going to figure out a way into her dream world and save her dream self right before the Asylum explodes.
- Oswin is not the actual companion, but a relative who looks exactly like her (because the new companion’s name was supposed to be Clara, remember?), kind of like Martha’s cousin in Canary Warf and Gwen’s relative in 1860’s Cardiff?
- Oswin somehow survived the explosion of the Asylum and the Doctor will find her floating in space. She will become the first Dalek companion.
- The woman we currently know as Oswin has somehow become splintered across time. The Doctor will travel with several versions of her.
- The Doctor is going to use the power of his memory to bring her back (a la Amy in The Big Bang). This is hinted at by Oswin’s last words: “remember me.”
- Everything that happened in Asylum of the Daleks was a dream.
- Everything in Asylum of the Daleks an elaborate fantasy constructed by either the Daleks or some unknown entity.
- Oswin is Jenny regenerated and finally reunited with her dad. (This can be applied in combination with theories 1, 2, 4 or 6.)
- Something completely different because we’ve all been Moffucked again.
