The Eleventh Hour is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
Official card text
(As this Saga enters and after your draw step, add a lore counter. Sacrifice after III.) I — Search your library for a Doctor card, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle. II — Create a Food token and a 1/1 white Human creature token with "Doctor spells you cast costless to cast." III — Create a token that's a copy of target creature, except it's a legendary Alien named Prisoner Zero.

- #2· Wizards of the Coast
You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.

Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied creature will trigger when the token enters the battlefield. Any "as [this creature] enters the battlefield" or "[this creature] enters the battlefield with" abilities of the chosen creature will also work.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #8· Wizards of the Coast
The token will still have any card types it normally has, such as creature or artifact, but it will lose any non-Alien subtypes it has, such as Human or Vehicle.

- #9· Wizards of the Coast
If the copied creature is copying something else, then the token enters the battlefield as whatever that creature copied, with the exceptions noted above.
Card named in this ruling
- #10· Wizards of the Coast
The same is true for reducing the cost of Doctor spells.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #11· Wizards of the Coast
Except for its name and types, the token copies exactly what was printed on the original creature and nothing else (unless that permanent is copying something else or it is a token; see below). It doesn't copy whether that creature is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, and so on.
