Wait, what? CBG, are you suggesting that Amy suddenly wakes up one day after the events of "The God Complex" with the new memories? Why? We as an audience are seeing events from the Doctor's timeline. So we don't see the events of "The Wedding of River Song" until the doctor is 1103. There's no possible reason that Amy would wait to get those memories until the version of the Doctor she was traveling with had caught up to the same point.

And all of the evidence from when time is collapsed--is negated by the fact that time has collapsed. People knowing things, how Amy draws herself, all of it. The narrative tells us that everything is happening all at once.

The Doctor dies, and at the exact same point there is an entire alternate universe where everything happens at once. When time moves past that one point where the doctor is both dead and alive at the same time, anyone who can remember the alternate events of that moment will start remembering. The Doctor in the Teselecta remembers what happens. We know Amy and River remember what happen. Why on earth would they not remember in Utah, standing over the Doctor's body? Why on earth would they only remember months or years later? Is it seriously being suggested that their memories are put on hold and are only triggered by being in the presence of the 1103 year old doctor? And if so, then wouldn't that discussion between River and Amy in the garden have to take place after "The Asylum of The Daleks"?

And Witoki I get your knot analogy but everything the the show tells me tells me that that knot starts and ends in that one moment on August 22.
