Connor saves a family from a group of vampires. After doing this, he breaks into the Hyperion and witnesses Cordelia's return, sans memory. She's facing Angel, Gunn and Fred and has no recollection of knowing them, what they do, who they are.

Of course the gang decide not to tell Cordelia the truth of who they are, that Angel is a vampire and what it is they do. Obviously not a good idea!.

She tries to remember but can't.. she reads her Sunnydale Yearbook and just gets confused at what's written there.. she looks through some photos and sees one of herself with Angel and a baby. She wonders if she's a mother.. Angel later tells her that it's Connor, his son.

Then she goes back to the lobby to see if she can find any answers.. we see Angel quickly gather several jars of blood together and beat a hasty retreat. But there's a drop of blood on the counter which freaks her out, and purple goo-covered Fred and Gunn with similarly goo-dripping axe doesn't help matters either. She runs out into the courtyard and is assailed by two W+H operatives, who she and Angel quickly take out ... nice moves!!..

Liked the scene that followed when she accused them of being Russian Spies.. and at Gunn's comment "do i look Russian to you?" and she replies "yeah, a Black Russian" which Angel patiently tells her is a drink. Also, mega-laugh at calling Angel "Angie

There's a close thing between Angel and Cordy in her room, where they almost kiss, til she asks him whether she was a nun.. and drops a handful of crucifixes into Angel's hand.. of course he vamps out (i thought, horrible CGI type effect) and she of course she freaks.. she flees and who does she run into but Lorne.. and i laughed when they both screamed at the same time!!!

The gang end up telling her everything. Then Cordelia sings for Lorne, he doesn't look to happy to put it mildly and runs..

And Lilah and Wes are still together.. he overhears her take a phonecall and finds out that Cordelia is back.

Lorne tells Angel that evil is on it's way and plans on staying..

That truly disgusting demon that attacks Cordelia.. major, major YUK!!!!. And it's Connor to the rescue, almost like what his daddy would do!.

I thought the scene between Cordy and Connor to be quite sweet and touching. He was the only one who was straight with her, and telling her that she liked shoes, doughnuts and was very brave.. sweet

Wes tells the team that W+H are after Cordy, and that she's staying with Connor. The team go to the rescue.

Operatives attack. The gang come to their aid and suddenly the operatives retreat after a good kicking. Cordy decides to stay with Connor and Angel is hurt at her choice but respects it. They leave.

Then, back at the hotel they find Lorne beaten up with a hole in his forehead. They've literally taken the information he'd gotten from Cordy's singing right out of his head. Obviously it was he that W+H wanted all along..
and of course Wesley isn't happy at Lilah for playing him.


A big improvement on last week's episode.. i think we're finally getting into the season's story arc, and with Lorne's "Book of Revelations" quote.. it's going to be a major one

Roll on next week
