Series 7 Episode 5 - Angels Take Manhattan
The half series finale, another brilliant episode...
The BBC caption: The Doctor's heart-breaking farewell to Amy and Rory - a race against time through the streets of Manhattan, as New York's statues come to life around them...
Title picture, The Doctor, Amy and Rory surrounded by Angels in Manhattan...
The Doctor as he reads Amy the story of how Rory is being attacked by angels!
Then, The Doctor and Amy go to save Rory, bump into River, Rory gets trapped with baby angels and is sent to the Winter Quay, while the Doctor and River are argueing. At the Winter Quay, they find Rory, and the same Rory but 60 years later on his deathbed. The angels are coming to get Rory, to send him back in time so he still ends up in that bed, but Amy isn't going to let that happen. All 4 of them run, The Doctor and River run down, whilst Amy and Rory run up, to the roof. They realise they are trapped, and if they don't find a way out fast the angels will get both of them. So they do what they think is the best solution...
Find a way to die together, by jumping off the Winter Quay:'(
They survive, because when they jumped off, time rewrote itself, and as Rory never died in that bed, the whole building was a paradox, meaning there was no building for them to jump off!!
But suddenly, a stray angel appears and takes Rory. Amy decides to sacrifice herself because she doesn't see the point in living without him, so she lets the angel take her, in the hope she will find Rory. Amy finds a way to write the final page in the book the Doctor was reading earlier, she said...
"Afterword, by Amelia Williams. Hello, old friend. And here we are, you and me, on the last page. By the time you read these words, Rory and I will be long gone. So know that we lived well, and were very happy. And above all else, know that we will love you always. Sometimes I do worry about you, though. I think once we're gone, you won't be coming back here for a while, and you might be alone, which you should never be. Don't be alone, Doctor. And do one more thing for me. There's a little girl waiting in a garden. She's going to wait a long while, so she's going to need a lot of hope. Go to her. Tell her a story. Tell her that if she's patient, the days are coming that she'll never forget. Tell her she'll go to sea and fight pirates. She'll fall in love with a man who'll wait two thousand years to keep her safe. Tell her she'll give hope to the greatest painter who ever lived and save a whale in outer space. Tell her this is the story of Amelia Pond. And this how it ends."
