After you get over the shock of the twist ending, this episode is only worth one or two rewatches and that's it. You watch it again to see if you can spot the twists coming, and then to view it as a study of what Angel's ideals are for his relationships with the other characters (Fred, Gunn, and Lorne are shafted - big time), but after that, it's just boring.

Hahaha. And I shall re-open it soon. The problem was that the app on my DB is buggy so I'll re-establish the folder on my PC.

"A sham-man", looool. What happened to your roast link? We were just itching to pay you back for those puns! XD
Agreed that this is a high point of the season thus far, 70% of that would have made a serviceable finale. Almost a cumulative 10 seasons of the Buffyverse and we still haven't learnt to react in any other way than terror and anxiety when we see things go exceedingly well.
