- Looks like it might be a more Fred-centric episode. - In one of the beginning scenes, Angel is asking "The Woman" if Cordelia will wake up? - The Woman (Gina Torres) says in rather poetic terms if they get rid of the demons that have taken over since the darkness came "which heralded her birth" and restore the world then Cordelia will be okay.
- She also says that great evil has been done her name and that they're going to change the world. - The next scene is in a ransacked bowling alley, with vamps using human heads to bowl with. The vamps whine about the sun returning.
- Angel, Connor, Wes, Gunn, Fred & The Woman arrive and there's a big fight.
- The Woman is injured in the battle, and Fred feels it's her fault.
- The battles carries on to a restaurant nearby, crowded with people.
- Angel stakes a vamp right in front of them.
- The restaurant patrons try to figure on what's going on.
- The Woman comes in, and they all kneel before her. She's sort of treated like a god and tells them she's here to bring peace, free them of their suffering and that the world will know the power of her love.
- A young man, John, who was scratched by the vamp, yells at her that she's lying and that she's a monster.
- John charges at the Woman with a knife.
- Angel vamps out, and viciously attacks John and beats him to protect the Woman. He's as close to being Angelus as he's ever been with a soul.
- The Woman stops Angel as John continues to yell that the Woman doesn't belong there. Wes calls an ambulance
- Later on, Fred is off on her own investigating John. It's about a week after the incident and he's at a psychiatric ward at a hospital
- She sneaks in and talks to him. The side of John's face that the Woman touched is all deformed now.
- Fred has seen something (that includes maggots and rotting flesh, maybe a vision?). John tells her that they've been called and killing the Woman is their mission.
- Fred returns to the hotel to find the lobby filled with people. Lorne and Wes are there. (The people are probably there because of the Woman). Fred pulls Wes aside. Fred presumably tells Wes about John or suspicions about The Woman.
- A few scenes later, Angel, Wes and The Woman are preparing to go after Fred, who they see as a threat now.
- The Woman tells them to wait until tomorrow when they'll have more help looking for Fred.
- In the next scene, Fred is at a coffee shop, telling another person at the counter that she's lost all of her friends.
- The local news is on the tv, and the Woman (who's now referred to as Jasmine) is appearing on screen, being interviewed by a reporter.
- Jasmine goes thru a speech about the earth being a garden and darkness corrupting it.
- All the patrons of the coffee shop drop to their knees to worship their new leader.
- As Fred walks out of the coffee shop, alone, in a brand new world.
- Fans of "Angel" who were left bewildered by the ending of Wednesday's (Feb. 12) episode will find out later this season who's been behind all the havoc befalling Los Angeles. Turns out the Big Bad looks a lot like Gina Torres. Torres, who starred in "Firefly" earlier this season has signed to do three episodes of "Angel" according to The Hollywood Reporter. Her character is described as a "godlike" being who's been the guiding hand behind recent events on the show. That could mean she was the unseen being to whom The Beast made an offering in Wednesday's show, and that she was behind Cordelia's turn to the dark side at the close of Wednesday's episode.
-Cordelia is trying to convince Angel that he isn't crazy. She explains that when she was tricked into ascending to a higher plane, her body remained on Earth. The Powers kept this soulless demon, while Cordelia was trapped elsewhere. When Angel's soul was set free, she 'hitched a ride' and now she is next to his soul. She tells him that the demon is now using her body to do the Powers' evil bidding. She knows nothing about their plans, except that there will be another miracle child, which will bring about the end of the world. Angel informs Cordelia that her demon had sex with Connor, not too long ago. Connor finds Angel and overhears him taking to himself. He -assume-s that this is a side effect from the recent spell and starts to walk away, until hears Cordelia's name. Meanwhile, Fred and Gunn discuss how wierd Cordelia has been acting lately. Lorne comes downstairs and tells them that he thinks he knows what is going on, Cordelia appears to be pregnant.
