Holy hell. teddy0bear totally called it!

And no, you are not the only one who didn't see it coming.

I'm glad. I never see things coming. (RORY!)

What are they going to do about kid-Melody killing the Doctor? Because I knew that adult-River killed him, but I figured, hey, regeneration, no harm done. But kid-Melody killed him a second time during the regeneration cycle, and this series is far too lucrative to stop now.

Related: what are they going to do when he hits 12?

Although, how the hell did the Doctor kill ganger-Amy so nonchalantly after he had been all "oh goodness me, Flesh is all sentient, we mustn't kill them!"?

These are the things that keep me up at night.

I think because Flesh-Amy wasn't sentient. The other gangers became sentient when that electrical thingy happened, but Flesh-Amy was still a puppet being controlled by Real-Amy.

I've been assuming that it's the Flesh-Doctor who gets killed, though I bet it's not that simple. IHNI what they're going to do when he hits 12. Find a way to retcon it, probably.

I think the show knows how creepy it is. The conversation she had with Rory where she said she met him as a little girl and he knew her already and the things that did to her suggested it. I think though what separates it from The Time Traveler's Wife and Twilight is that younger River wants to be River because she's amazing. Similar plots I've read really focus about how omg speshul the relationship is rather than that.

Yeah, with you on one more flesh fake out. It's the same with the Rory dying fake outs. NO MORE.

And 'Amy is talking about the Doctor! NO WAIT SHE MEANS RORY.' That was a good one, better than the one about him dropping out of the sky, but no more.
