Summary:
The Doctor tells Rory that Amy has tried to seduce him, which makes Rory quite angry but then the Doctor takes him and Amy back in time to Venice. Shortly after their arrival, they witness a strange scene with a man who searches for his daughter in a bunch of pale girls. Interested, the Doctor runs off and starts to investigate what happens in Venice. Amy wants to help by going into the school but Rory is against it. As it is the only chance to find out what is going on, Rory can't say anything anymore and Amy goes into the school of Rosanna Calvierri. She opens a trap door for Rory and the Doctor but is taken to an underground room shortly afterwards by Rosanna and the girls. They want to turn her into one of them and now Amy know that they aren't facing vampires but aliens. Rosanna starts the transformation of Venice into a world under the ocean to give her family a new home. Can the Doctor stop her and save the people of Venice?
This is the first episode in which Rory travels with Amy and the Doctor and Amy isn't very happy about it first. Rory as addition in the Tardis brings some new conflicts with him because there is this connection between Amy and the Doctor and the fact that Amy and Rory are engaged. This leads to some great moments in this episode especially when the Doctor comes out of Rory's cake instead of a stripper. Rory also gives the Doctor some things to think about when he tells him that he makes people dangerous to themselves because they want to impress the Doctor. The story with the vampires is interesting but maybe not one of the best in the history of Doctor Who. It gives us some interesting facts about the cracks and it mentions the Silence again. "The Vampires of Venice" is a fun story with creepy alien fish and some tiles for the big puzzle.

Quotes from "The Vampires of Venice"
Seems like I forgot the quotes from "The Vampires of Venice". Well, here they are.
The Doctor: Rory! That's a relief. Thought I burst out of the wrong cake... again. That reminds me, there's a girl sitting outside in a bikini. Can someone let her in and give her a jumper? Lucy, lovely girl. Diabetic.
The Doctor: We need to talk about your fiancée. She tried to kiss me. Tell you what, though, you're a lucky man. She's a great kisser. Funny how you can say something in your head, and it sounds fine.
The Doctor: Ah, you've got to love Venice. So many people did. Byron, Napoleon, Casanova. Oh that reminds me. 1580, that's all right Casanova doesn't get born for 145 years. Don't want to run into him. I owe him a chicken.
Rory: You owe Casanova a chicken?
The Doctor: Long story. We had a bet.
The Doctor: Tell me the whole plan! (the vampires advance) One day that'll work...
Rory: What's there between you and Amy? You said she kissed you!
The Doctor: Now? You want to do this now?!
Rory: I have a right to know. I'm getting married in 430 years!
The Doctor: The clouds are thick.
Rory: Good thing I brought this, then. (pulls out a small flashlight)
The Doctor: (pulls out a bigger light) Ultraviolet. Portable sunlight.
Rory: Yours is bigger than mine.
The Doctor: Let's not go there.
(to the Doctor)
Rory: You know what's dangerous about you? It's not that you make people take risks, it's that you make them want to impress you. You make it so they don't want to let you down. You have no idea how dangerous you make people to themselves when you're around.
Rosanna: Where are you from?
The Doctor: Gallifrey.
Rosanna: You should be in a museum. Or in a mausoleum.
Rosanna: I need an answer, Doctor. A partnership. Any which way you choose.
The Doctor: I don't think that's such a good idea, do you? I'm a Time Lord. You're a big fish. Think of the children.
The Doctor: I will tear down the house of Calviera stone by stone. Take your hands off me, Carlo. And you know why? You didn't know Isabella's name. You didn't know Isabella's name.
Rory: You can't repopulate somewhere with just women. You need blokes.
Amy: She's got blokes in the canal. She said she has 10,000 husbands waiting for her in the water.
The Doctor: Only the male offspring survived the journey here. She's got 10,000 children swimming around the canals, waiting for Mum to make them some compatible girlfriends. Ehhh. I mean, I've been around a bit, but really, that's, that's... ehh.
The Doctor: The people upstairs are pretty noisy.
Guido: There aren't any people upstairs.
The Doctor: I knew you were going to say that. Did anybody else know he was going to say that?
Rory: You stink of fish.
Francesco: Well, I'm hardly going to smell of cheese and biscuits.
The Doctor: Rosanna!
Rosanna: One city to save an entire species. Was that so much to ask?
The Doctor: I told you, you can't go back and change time. You mourn, and you live. I know, Rosanna. I did it.
Rosanna: Tell me, Doctor. Can your conscience carry the weight of another dead race? Remember us. Dream of us.
Amy: Hey, look at this. Got my spaceship, got my boys. My work here is done.
Rory: We are not her boys.
The Doctor: Yeah, we are.
Rory: Yeah, we are.
