Rory's Story Part Six: The Pandorica Opens

Here's part six of Rory's Story: a feature looking at Rory's involvement in previous Doctor Who episodes (a bit like a prequel to the upcoming Rory Watch), from The Eleventh Hour to A Good Man Goes to War. Rory's Story will be posted twice a day, until Friday 26 August, the day before Let's Kill Hitler airs:
PART SIX: THE PANDORICA OPENS (Series 5, Episode 12)



HE'S A FLIPPING ROMAN!!!

I'm actually watching this on the DVD player as I write this, my head is too full of stuff to just write it. Rory actually comes in quite late in the story, then only as a mysterious shadow, his face unrecognisable and his voice barely recognisable either.
His first real and memorable moment is in the Underhenge; spearing a CyberSentry with his epic sword. It's sad that Amy couldn't remember him, he just saved her life. And the Doctor.... where to start? HE MISSED THE FACT RORY WAS IN FRONT OF HIS FACE!!! Poor Rory, he gets the worst luck. When the Doctor FINALLY realises Rory's there, he gets a poke.
It also takes a while for Rory to find out he never existed and that Amy doesn't remember him. He also thought it was a dream, his Leadworth life. Rory is called a miracle (well, ish) though so yay for that. Rory also gains the nickname Roranicus in this ep when he talks to Amy above ground. Rory tries to get Amy to remember him, although it takes him a little while. When Amy does remember, as Rory is fighting activation, it's too late. Rory, being an Auton, was activated and SHOT AMY DEAD. Then the universe starts to end when the Doctor is locked in the Pandorica. Great day for Rory, he killed his fiancee, the universe ended and he was never born. Again.
RORY MOMENT OF THE EPISODE

HE'S A ROMAN!!! OH YES!

Part 7, The Big Bang, will be done tomorrow morning by RandomWho.
Sorry for posting slightly early and for the obvious overuse of captial letters
