 The Doctor temporarily brings the two Amys into the same time stream by having them synchronise their thoughts whilst having Rory manipulate the time engines . Rory 's glasses begin to malfunction due to feedback from the paradox , forcing the three of them to race through the complex amongst several Handbots to reach the TARDIS without the Doctor 's assistance . As they near its location , the older Amy falls back to protect the other two , but the younger Amy runs into a Handbot and is sedated . As the older Amy covers his back , Rory takes the younger Amy into the TARDIS . Once they are inside the Doctor slams the door behind them and admits to Rory that it is impossible for both Amys to exist in the same timestream . Rory must now choose which Amy he wants . Rory and the older Amy have a tearful farewell at the TARDIS door before the older Amy tells him to move on without her . The older Amy then allows herself to be taken by the Handbots . Amy wakes up and asks " Where is she ? " , and the Doctor leaves Rory to explain to her .
