Angel (David Boreanaz) arranges an important truce meeting between two warring demon tribes through a Demon Rights Activist (guest star Bryce Mouer). Already feeling unappreciated at work, Harmony's (Mercedes McNab) life in the office gets worse when she finds the Demon Rights Activist dead in her bed one morning after a night of drinking. Knowing that Angel will kill her for causing the summit negotiations to break down, Harmony is desperate to find out who framed her for the murder.
 
Not sure about this episode. Should be a laugh but I'm not expecting anything above that. Looking forward to the following episodes after Harm's Way because thats when it looks like Angel is gonna start going all arcy.
 
I hadn't heard anything about it before i read that^^^ so i am looking forward to it. Not as much as the other episodes tho.

I love Harm, so i think i should enjoy it, but we'll see...
 
I thought the episode was so funny. Angel in the beginning in that Wolfram and Hart video was so funny! He just looked so uncomfertable. Anyone else find it funny when Gunn suddenly gains new powers? First he has law knowledge, then he knows demon traditions and then suddenly he can speak demon languages. The Fred / Harmony scenes were good. Angel being the Whore Man is one of the funniest things ever. So it was a good episode but the ending was very dissapointing. I mean Spike's reason for not going to Europe was ****. The team could have done a lot better. Also the whole episode seemed to be about how unapreciated Harmony is and by the end she is still unapreciated. It would have been nice to have seen Angel warm up to her (and maybe see her abs).
 
Oh my God I adored this epsode Harmony rocked!!! and those movies you wouldnt have thought she'd be able to do them after her attempts in buffy. but wow she was so funny and that episode just rocked!!! and i agree with no angel, i'd love to see angel be nice to her.
 
Excellent ep - very, very funny. Harmony is such a great character - I felt really sorry for her a good few times...

The W&H ad cracked me up (was that meant to be real or was it Harmony's dream?) I loved the martial arts spoof - staked with a chopstick! How embarassing🙂

I'm starting to think that they may have too many main characters this season - in most eps some of them are woefully underused - Wes, Lorne and Spike in this one for example. It never felt like that in previous seasons...
 
The video was funny at the start, especially if you've ever had to watch one. And with this and Buffy's Doublemeat Palace think ME have something against them?

I felt sorry for Harmony during this episode but she did have a few good moments. Brushing her teeth in the mirror, her night out with Fred, shoving people in the closet, staking with chopsticks and explaining how shes a "right biter" were all classic Harmony.
 
Ii loved the eppy so so so so so so much.

Loved the bit where she cleans her normal teeth then her vamp teeth.

Aand wow Harm actually fight like a vampire now, i was expecting some of that slapping and hair pulling which she did w/ Xander but there was nada.

Totally agree, the reason for Spike staying was total shiz.

Lol @ Gunn haviong so many abilities suddenly, i'm findiong it annoying, and if i were Harm i would have told Angel where to sove his coffee, he's so mean to her.

Overall excellent episode.
 
Hilarious episode! A bit off, meaning it seemsed it was just there to fill a patch 😉

Loved Harm and Fred at The Bar 😉
 
A great Harmony centric, it was great to see her being the focus! There were some great scenes, Harm & Fred how awesome!
 
I really liked it, but I wanted some hair-pulling and slapping like with Xander.
