The Doctor and River eventually realise that the text is trying to tell them that any image of the Angels essentially ''becomes'' an Angel, and is imbued with the qualities that make them so dangerous. Something that Amy is well ahead of them in discovering, having become trapped in the room with the recording of the Angel, which is gradually coming out of the screen towards her. Amy manages to defeat it by stopping the looped recording at the exact point where the image of the Angel is glitched out, but not before she looks into the Angel's eyes despite the Doctor's instructions. As the clerics manage to access the temple, Amy complains of something in her eye...

To Amy's curiosity and the Doctor's slight resentment, River takes control of the TARDIS, having "had lessons from the very best." [[Recap/DoctorWhoS32E8LetsKillHitler The Doctor was busy that day.]] The team follows the ''Byzantium'' to where it has landed -- or, more accurately, crashed. Specifically, on top of an ancient, abandoned temple built on Alfava Metraxis. Not long after they've arrived, River is joined by a team of clerics, a [[ChurchMilitant military off-shoot of the Church]] led by a bishop, Father Octavian. They're hunting the creature that caused the ship to crash -- [[Recap/DoctorWhoS29E10Blink a Weeping Angel]]. River has promised the Doctor's help in catching it, as it appears to have escaped into the [[IDontLiketheSoundofThatPlace "The Maze "Maze of the Dead"]], the catacombs underneath the temple. Also, Amy quickly figures out that River has just ''got'' to be [[ShipTease the Doctor's wife]]. The Doctor honestly doesn't know, and River delights in keeping the answer a secret.
As the clerics work on breaking into the temple, the Doctor and friends work on decoding the mystery of the Angels with a four-second clip of the Angel in the ''Byzantium''. They also use an oldAlfava text book which, ominously, does not include any images of the Angels. The Doctor and River eventually realise that the text book is trying to tell them that any image of the Angels essentially ''becomes'' an Angel, and is imbued with the qualities that make them so dangerous.

The prophecy (mentioned at the top of the page) implies that the angels are, in fact, ''sapient ideas''. Which makes sense, since perception is so important to their existence.
