The next morning in a [[hotel]], the Doctor explains to Mark what the Weeping Angels want and that it is vital he get back. Mark says he cannot, telling them about the letter. He has put the letter in a [[safety deposit box]]. Mark explains this reasoning by telling of a time when his wallet was mysteriously returned in [[Rome]]; he believes his older self was behind this. The Doctor offers to use the TARDIS to achieve the same thing, but Mark refuses, leaving the Doctor suspicious. He and Amy and Rory believe the story, however, and the Doctor allows him to stay if he promises not to interact with himself or alter history. He also wants Mark to make a copy of the letter and send it to himself when the time comes, which the Doctor claims will not make a paradox. | The next morning in a [[hotel]], the Doctor explains to Mark what the Weeping Angels want and that it is vital he get back.

Told through | Told through flashbacks, Mark and Rebecca stay friends after college and sleep together in [[1996]] after drinking. They agree that this was a mistake, although Mark was lying. Their friendship becomes less close. They meet up again in [[1997]], when "Becky" is still seeing [[Anthony (Touched by an Angel)|Anthony]] and Mark is dating [[Jenny (Touched by an Angel)|Jenny]]. Becky hands Mark a [[lottery ticket]] from a newspaper that she thought was his. The older Mark, unrecognisable to both, picks up the newspaper. The two Marks experience a tingling sensation in their hands. Mark and Rebecca kept in touch after this meeting and she invites Mark to [[Rome]] with her in [[1998]]; the trip was booked for her and her and Anthony, but he cheated on her. They share a bed, but with a pillow firmly between them. | ||
The Doctor keeps the TARDIS trained on Mark's life, watching for any temporal disturbances. They return during the Rome visit, and Rory chases down the pickpoter who stole the younger Mark's wallet. The Doctor hands it in, but he is still aware of temporal disturbances. Mark remembers that he and Rebecca got locked in [[Capitoline Hill]], and the TARDIS crew allow this to happen. They only escape the Angels because of a security guard. Meanwhile, locked together, a romance blossoms between Mark and Rebecca, and they sleep together than night after they are unlocked. | The Doctor keeps the TARDIS trained on Mark's life, watching for any temporal disturbances.
