OK so assuming it's fake WHY make it? How were they to know Amy would show up there and what were they trying to accomplish letting her see it? Or maybe it's for Melody so she'll have a photo of her ma? Why not her pa? I feel like I'm going cross-eyed with this one.

haha yeah, that's what I meant when I said " made it up". They used their evil photoshop skills.

But wouldn't Real!Amy have to be in control of Ganger!Amy? Melody looks older in the photo than she does in AGMGTW.

Photo of Amy and Melody
The husband pointed out something today. In Day of the Moon (or is it TIA?), Amy finds a photo of herself and Melody in the run down orphanage. I would say Melody is around 2-3 months old and Amy looks all peaceful and happy. Is it a made up photo just for Amy's sake? Is it real? If it is,…

Actually after I read your thread I saw other posts like this on io9. I do think it was a misdirection - the side of the crib - and the "But we kissed?!" just felt more like… "you're that baby and this is a little weird". It seemed like River acknowledged that and that it was ok, which, if she were his mom… ew I…

@Whovian ah! Thanks, that makes sense. And wasn't eye-patch lady saying, "2 minutes"? I guess telling Amy how much time she had left with Melody?

The Numbers
A few times people just randomly say a time, like "2 minutes" or "3 minutes 40 seconds" (whatever the times were). Did I miss something? What were they counting down/up to? It reminded me of Amy counting down to her death last season.

I'm not sure where you came up with this?

This couldn't have been the first time she's seen her dad since she was a baby because she asked Rory why he was in his Roman costume… if I'm recalling correctly. It's been a week since I've seen it.

And this is why they shouldn't have used his first draft for the show. I enjoyed yours much more and it didn't go out of it's way to make the characters idiots to push the plot along (lookin at you Rory).

Here's the confusion
I can see where people are getting confused over whether Doctor killed Ganger!Amy or not and it's entirely the fault of the episode's writing. And the lousy writer who I hope never gets a chance to write another episode of Who.

Oh yeah, and watch out for spoilers below.

Oh thanks! I just rewatched that with the 12 and 10 year old yesterday. Their first watching. I had fun just watching THEM watch it, what a great ep!

That bugged me too. They had PLENTY of time to run. And if the island was ..uh… dissolving from acid/blowing up, then they shouldn't have had to worry about Gennifer wrecking havoc on the world did they?

@kjohnson1585 That's great! That line really stuck out to me, but I had forgotten it.

I believe she was taken before TIA. In Confiendtial they talk about Ganger!Amy going on American adventures and show her stepping off the school bus. OK, I guess she could have been taken before she left UK?
