This was a pretty good episode. Still not sure about Spike though. He seems as though he's been stuck in there at the last minute. You can almost imagine it in the Wheddon boardroom. "So, what are we gonna do with Spike? I know, lets just plonk him in each episode until we can work out what to do!"

The ships bike was flirting around and causing sexual angst as normal - I'm really getting to dislike the Fred character. Gun was pretty cool, peeing on Angels shoes was a first in fantasy TV I thought, and Wesley played the hurt academic very well, as usual.

Angel though, was completely out of order for bonking the evil one's right hand girl. The last scene was a bit wierd! When Angel said they should talk about the [i][b]experience[/b][/i], she seemed to dismiss it and then (with her back turned) she looked a bit worried/pissed/concerned (dunno which, it all happened a bit quick). Is this the gona be a theme during the series - do Angel and evil bitch have a [i]thing going[/i]?

Lorne was a diamond as usual, excelently played (except for the Lorne Hulk character - bloody stupid that! Is 'Hulk' still fashionable following the film disaster?

I'd rate it a 7 out of 10 - what did you think?

[i]Sorry for the garble. Watched the episode while drinking a quarter bottle of vodka infused with chillies in it (the real McKoy from Siberia) - My mouth feels like a boiled carrot and my brain is a bit fried[/i]. :D
