Quotes from "The Girl Who Waited"

The Doctor: Appalapachia.
Amy: Say it again.
The Doctor: Appalapachia. Appalapachia.
Rory: Appalapachia.
The Doctor: Appalapachia.
Amy: Appalapachia. What a beautiful word.
The Doctor: Beautiful word, beautiful world.

Amy: Have you seen my phone?
The Doctor: Your phone?
Amy: Yeah.
The Doctor: Your mobile telephone. I bring you to a paradise planet two billion light-years from Earth and you want to update... Twitter?
Amy: Sunsets, spires, soaring silver colonnades. It's a camera phone.
The Doctor: On the counter by the DVDs.
Amy: Thank you.

The Doctor: Ha ha! How do I look?
Rory: Ridiculous.
The Doctor: Glasses are cool, see? (puts them on Rory) Oh, yes. Hello, handsome man.
Rory: Oh, hello.

Future-Amy: And there he is, the voice of God. Survive, because no one's going to come for you. Number one lesson. You taught me that.
The Doctor: Is that really all I taught you?
Future-Amy: Don't you lecture me, Blue Box Man Flying Through Time and Space on Whimsy. All I've got, all I've had for 36 years, is cold hard reality. So no, I don't have a sonic screwdriver, because I'm not off on a romp. I call it what it is, a probe. And I call my life what it is. Hell.

Future-Amy: They look ridiculous.
Rory: That's what I told him. Still, anything beats a fez, eh?

Amy: You know when sometimes you meet someone, so beautiful. And then you actually talk to them and five minutes later they're as dull as a brick. And then there's other people, and you think, "Not bad, they're okay." And then you get to know them and--and their face just... sort of becomes them. Like their personality's written all over it. And they turn into something so beautiful.
Amy and Future Amy: Rory's the most beautiful man I've ever met. 
Amy: Please... do it for him.
Future-Amy: Ah, you. You're asking me to defy destiny, causality, the nexus of Time itself, for a boy.
Amy: You're Amy. He's Rory. And yes I am.

Future-Amy: Right, okay, this is big news. This is temporal earthquake time. I'm officially changing my own future. Hold on to your spectacles. In my past I saw my future-self refuse to help you. And I'm changing that future and agreeing. Every law of time says that shouldn't be possible.
The Doctor: Yes, except sometimes knowing your own future is what enables you to change it. Especially if you're bloody-minded, contradictory, and completely unpredictable.
Rory: So basically, if you're Amy, then.
The Doctor: Yes. if anyone can defeat predestiny, it's your wife.

Rory: Can you unlock them?
Future-Amy: Yeah. Give me a minute and your cutest smile. That's the one.
Rory: Can you stop flirting with me? You're old enough to be my...
Future-Amy: I've known you my whole life. How many games of "Doctors and Nurses"...?
Rory: Shhh.
Future-Amy: Don't get coy now.

The Doctor: Look, we take this Amy, we leave ours. There can only be one Amy in the TARDIS. Which one do you want? Your choice.
Rory: This isn't fair. You're turning me into you.

Series 6 Episode 10: The Girl Who Waited

This episode had some really great moments in it and I think it was nice to have an episode which was mostly about Amy. Don't read further when you haven't watched the episode yet.

Summary:
The Doctor, Amy and Rory visit a planet but it is under quarantine. Amy pushes the wrong button and lands in a different time stream. Rory and the Doctor promise to help her but when Rory finds Amy, she is 36 years older and has spent this whole time alone. She had to fight the Handbots who would have killed her with kindness. The Doctor asks her to save the young Amy but first she doesn't want to. When she has talked to the young Amy and after the Doctor promises to save them both she agrees and they manage to get both Amys into one time stream. They are able to get back to the Tardis but can both versions of Amy be saved?

This is another episode where we see the Doctor lying. He does that a lot lately and I wonder if we get an explanation for this behaviour of his. Makes him a bit dislikeable but probably more human. The older Amy was great too. I wonder how long Karen had to sit in mask to get that done. As I said before it was a great episode for Amy and the scene between Rory and the older Amy at the end when she is outside of the Tardis is really sad. I wish they could have taken both Amys but that would probably have been a bit strange too. These robots were a bit freaky too. I don't want to stand in front of one of them.  I wonder if everybody in this facility is alone or if some are living with other people. Well, I really liked the episode but the end was so sad.
You can watch the episode here.
