Angel 2-25-04 - I'm confuzzled. (spoilers)

This is the one that wold have made it mean something, though it would have still annoyed me since Whedon has done similar things far to many times already.

It's just like the popular introduce a new character and have them tragically die in the same episode after becoming chummy with the main chacter plot.

Hasn't Wes been pining over poor Fred since she was introduced? I know I certainly felt that the Fred-Wes got together it was something that didn't need to be developed over a few episodes. The feelings were already there.

As for doing the good "innocence gone evil" thing being over done. I don't think it's old. It seems that this is a bit different and Cordy and Fred are two separate individuals (I always liked Fred better). I think it will be a good way to end the series.

It's not a matter how well develop it is, but the feeling it was done solely to tear them apart. Throw in Whedon's belief that a lasting stable relationship is uninteresting (which leads to something bad always happening) and you start to get to the root of my annoyance with this plotline.
