This weeks episode kicked ass, Angelus is so cool and funny and will say what ever he wants whenever he wants. He exploits everything he knows about you and hurts you with it, which makes funny
Although i like angel im kinda happy his soul got stolen cos we get to see more of angelus!!!
Can't wait for next weeks episode best season so far!

Absolutely awesome episode... i'd forgotten just how much i loved Angelus til tonight's episode.

David was just simply outstanding as the soulless vampire. I loved the way his character just played off all of the AI team. He found their weaknesses and taunted them about it, he revealed secrets (and by God, he revealed them) and some of the things he said were just... 😱

I loved the scene between Angelus and Connor. It was very tense. Something would've happened there if Cordelia hadn't intervened.

Angelus's mimic of Cordelia was spot on, and the look in his eyes as he did it!, yikes!!.

And when he grabbed Fred, i honestly jumped a foot in the air.

And the final scene between Angelus and Cordelia, when she told him that he was a nobody, a disease and that Angel would make sure that Angelus would stay gone. And even though Angelus lunged at her, though she was an inch out of reach, she didn't flinch at all... Go Cordy!!

And tonight's episode was directed by Sean Astin, also known as Samwise Gamghee from the Lord of the Rings movies. Great debut.

And Angel's soul is missing... hey i'm not complaining!, more Angelus next week and i really can't wait!! 😀

Shame Angelus can't be permanent,he's such a great character!😀 The scenes with him were great,when he taunted Wes about Fred *bend her over the counter.......*😱.

The only moment which rankled was the Priestesses thingy majib living in....Wait for it.....L.A!!!::huh:: CRAP!!!😛

Angelus was sooooo funny. All his quirky remarks about Fred were hilarious, and how predictable was it that he would push that trolley thing into her. ::idea::

I liked it making Conner seem all weak after he saw the thing saying daddy's birthday on the calender.

But my fave bit was Cordy telling Angelus that he could have her, she was so funny, haha!!!

Great Eppy, i like this season best too, the first

This episode was just amazing. What was great for me was that not much really happened but the writing was so brilliant that I was pulled in straight away.

So far, season 4 isn't my favourite season of Angel but this ep is definately my fave of the season so far.

The scene at the dead familys house reminded me of Buffy twice. Firstly when Connor runs out and is sick that reminded me of The Body when Buffy throws up. Not just because vomit is involved but because it dealt with the loss or potential loss of a parent.

Secondly when Cordy sits down and seems rather awkward when reassuring Connor, it reminded me of the time Spike was going to shoot Buffy but he saw how upset she was and instead sat down and comforted her. Im not as clear why I got that memory but thats my brain for you!!

*claps*

I thought it was a well written episode!!!

*claps somemore*

 

[deevak]

i loved this eppy. my fave part was when angelus tried to reach cordy and she didnt move an inch!!! she was gr8.
i also belive that season 4 is the best but the end of season spoilers sound really bad - post back if you'd like me to post them with info on how to put them in hidden view for spoilers

I saw that and thought I wonder if thats him...nice work on his behalf.

I loved this episode...damm how i've missed Angelus. David does it so well. Cordelia really has come into her own, the way she stood up to him, she was the only one that could really resist his taunting.

I thought this ep was really cool. Angelus was awesome. But I hate Cordy so much! I don't know why she just bugs me now. Kill her!!!!!!!
