At Wester Drumlins, they set up a portable DVD player and, on noticing an Angel in the garden, Sally tells Larry to keep an eye on it. The following sequence is one of the biggest TimeParadox [[MindScrew Mind Screws]] you will ever encounter, with Sally and the Doctor carrying on an extended conversation even though the Doctor is speaking to a video camera thirty-eight years in the past. The Doctor's attempt to explain the temporal mechanics of the situation gives us the TropeNamer for the TimeyWimeyBall. When asked how he knows what she's going to say, the Doctor responds "Look to your left." Sally does so-- to find Larry scribbling her lines into his copy of the transcript of the Doctor's dialogue from the [=DVD=] Easter Egg (adding a necessary but slightly cool-dampening modicum of plausibility to the sequence). The Doctor reveals he has a copy of that completed transcript as he records his part.
The Doctor also explains the nature of the Weeping Angels: they feed on "potential energy," meaning the energy a person would have expended if they lived into the future, but do not expend if they live out the rest of their lives in the past. As he remarked earlier to Billy, they're the only psychopaths in the universe who kill you nicely: send you back to the past, let you live yourself to death.

Sally finds the TARDIS in the mansion's basement, and she and Larry make their way down the stairs. However, the Angels follow them, and one ([[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands suddenly displaying a proficiency]] for [[MindOverMatter telekinesis]]) causes the only lightbulb in the room to flicker on and off. Sally and Larry make it inside the TARDIS just as the Angels reach them.
They then discover that Larry's DVD functions as a TARDIS-activation key, slot it into the TARDIS' handy PlotCoupon drive and then watch as the TARDIS dematerializes without them. The Angels have surrounded the TARDIS by this point, and when it disappears, they're stuck looking at each other -- forever. Whoops.
