I bawled....well, it was a little past a manly single tear....but yeah..their whole speech about why they love Rory got me teary but it was the ending with older Amy that got me...just her realization that she HAD to stay...for Rory's sake she had to.
This was a GREAT episode...and I want to just punch people who say that Amy really doesn't love Rory in the face. I mean, c'mon! How much more do they have to say it!? I mean she literally very nearly tore apart time and space for him.
This really was a great episode for everyone...showed that Amy is capable....that Rory, no matter what, will do his damnedest to protect Amy...that the Doctor for all his human qualities, still has moments of alien thought and is a damn good liar. And I'm starting to think you're right...that the arc for Amy and Rory will be that they walk away from the Doctor...not that he leaves them...but that he does something they just can't agree with and they know now that they'll probably never get their baby back so they walk away and attempt a doctor free life.
But yeah...I feel like this is the end of my OTP's companionship with the Doctor...leaves me wondering what will come next season. Is it wrong that I want him to have a male companion finally...not a tag-a-long like Rory started out as...but a legitimate companion who is male.
