Ain't no party like a Doctor Who party...

apple_pathways'cause a Doctor Who party don't stop. (It just takes a f*ing hiatus after seven episodes for NO GOOD REASON. :P)
So, I want to hang out on the internets and flail about the mid-series finale of Doctor Who, but social obligations dictate I must leave the house. (Why must people inconveniently schedule their grad school celebration parties on the days of epic Who episodes???)
*OMG, River is Amy and Rory's BABY! ...on second thought, that theory's been around forever. I'm glad that's the one they went with, but still: DAMN YOU Who fans and your ability to correctly predict major plot twists!
*Rory and Amy's reunion! ♥ ♥ ♥ "I was going to be cool." Oh, Rory darling: you will never be cool, and that's why we love you! (I was going to rewatch this scene over and over and over again, but now I'm afraid the whole thing will be slightly spoiled knowing that cuddling a Flesh!baby. *shakes fist* DAMN YOU gooey Flesh!baby!
*Moffat: PLEASE stop hitting us over the head with your Big Important Points. We are not idiots. You had River say "He'll rise higher than he ever has." We heard it! We know what it means! We do NOT need a character to come out and say THE SAME EXACT THING again in order to 'get it'. WE GOT IT! Now: NO MORE ANVILS, please, our heads are rather tender! (And while I have your attention: the name of the episode is allowed to be spoken out loud ONCE per episode! No exceptions!)
*Centurion!Rory! And Amy as a mum is SO CUTE...I cried. (Fortunately, this time I was alone, and no one came upstairs all concerned to see what was wrong with me.)
Ok, I gotta get going now! But here's some questions I have:
*How did Eyepatch Lady get away from Rory?
*Where did the Doctor go at the end?
*Was that whole scene where they had the Doctor pinpoint exactly when the Pondling was conceived really necessary? (It was cute, but just a little long!)
*When can we expect the spin-off series with the Victorian Silurian Lady Detective and herlesbian lover sidekick to air?
Ok, I gotta go: please leave me some squee and/or griping and/or thinky thoughts! I will be spending the evening with people who've never even heard of Doctor Who, and it's inevitable that I am going to get a bit tipsy, forget this fact, and then spend a good 20 minutes trying to explain the show to people who COULD NOT CARE LESS and/or are just humoring me.
Go! :P

3. This was maybe my favorite Rory episode. Between the badass "Where is my wife?" and "Would you like me to repeat the question?" and then the "I was gonna be cool" I just fell in love with his character all over again. He's so excellent.
4. Amy as a mommy made me extremely happy. I wasn't sure it would suit her, but it so totally does.
5. SQUEE.

3. Oh, Rory being competent and a badass, and yet still so utterly vulnerable and geeky around Amy? SO MUCH ♥♥♥s! The idea of watching him be a dad is just making my heart melt.
4. She was such a cute mommy! Very natural. You just know the Pond girl's fierceness is going to extend to her mothering practices! No wonder River's such a badass. :D
5. I CONCUR!

5. STILL SQUEEING 22 HOURS LATER.
