"Rory Williams Rory's the best. This guy waited for his girlfriend for 2000 years without eating or sleeping due to some weird time warp. I just think he's fantastic. And despite his loyalty, Amy thinks she can step all over him and try to get into the Doctor's pants on their WEDDING NIGHT. B**h. Any woman would be lucky to have a Rory. Doctor Who"
