In the Eleventh 時 he already proved himself to be observant when noticing the comatose patients out and about.
Then even before he was introduced to the TARDIS he did his research. Even if he's not clever on his own he knows how to find his info.
But finally he showed his quality when he exposed the Doctor. Davros did it at during Journeys End, but Rory was so much もっと見る blunt and got down to the core of it. Its not that the Doctor makes weapons out of people, he makes people want to impress him! The Doctor makes people a danger to themselves. and Rory nailed it! He saw right through the Doctor. And I 愛 him for that.
