Rory broke my heart in this episode. And not just because he's my favourite. He is so human, in a way the Doctor doesn't quite understand, and he's invested in people he doesn't know in a way Amy, much though I enjoy her, isn't.
I think Rory's too good to travel with the Doctor.
I think you might be right. I hope you aren't, because I love him. I've been nursing a theory that the "best man I've ever known" is Rory rather than the Doctor, and he's the one River eventually kills. Because even the Doctor admits that he is not always a good man and Rory is.
I did love the part where Old Amy and Young Amy talked about Rory. It's been obvious all along that Amy is the centre of Rory's world and since the finale last season, I've been picking up on all the little moments that show how Amy feels, now that she doesn't have quite the same abandonment issues. And that moment was just beautiful.
