Adventures with the Ninth Inspector

Rory was typified by his unexpected bravery and constant longing for the girl he'd left behind and had loved since he was a little boy. When Angie Lake first met the Inspector, many fans thought she might be The Girl and were very upset when canon proved otherwise.

In Heart's Desires fans finally met The Girl, Marta Vertoski. Fans ate her up, as he calls her, finally, at the beginning, because it was her birthday. He discovers that she was kidnapped by the Horasas, and he and the Inspector go there, and meet Karaka, a lowly peasant and his daughter Sarasof . Sarasof is a genius, and is taught by the elders, along with Mailay and the other children of the lords. With the help of Sarasof, who is five, they make their way through the highly guarded castle, and are confronted by Mailay, who actually shows them a secret passage. They rescue Marta, but not before the evil king Kaconga tells Rory how to cheat death.

The burden of this knowledge was too great for him to bear without cost, and so the Inspector sadly wiped Marta and Rory's minds and took them back to Earth, where they eventually got married, and had Brooke Rhapsody checking in on them.

Darvill was displeased with the direction his character had taken, and so went on to become a companion on That Ripoff. To IS fans' displeasure, The Girl was given the name Amy Pond. Still, any IS fans who watched Rory's episodes could spot continuity between the IS and DW incarnations of the character. Rory does not remember the Inspector, but he does retain his ability to spot odd happenings around him (something he'd honed during his short time with the Inspector). He also seems to still be able to cheat death. The Ripoff has taken this to a ridiculous level to show off his ability to survive, but IS fans continue to be annoyed at how obvious the connection is and scoff at these desperate attempts to live up to the IS's level of standards.
