32 "Reunion" In a last-ditch effort to save her beleaguered soul, Angel hastens to find the soon-to-be reborn Darla before she awakens as a vampire. He hits pay dirt (so to speak) at a greenhouse, but is foiled at the last minute by Drusilla's intervention. She and Darla make clean but separate getaways, leaving a defeated Angel with no choice but to head home, regroup and hunt them down. Meanwhile, Drusilla makes her presence felt at Wolfram & Hart, where a confused, fuming and extremely violent Darla has a bone to pick with her new mum.
33 "Redefinition" As Wes, Cordy and Gunn reel from the shock of being fired, their deadly serious ex-boss intently reinvents himself as a coldhearted, one-man weapon of mass destruction.

36 "The Thin Dead Line" Unbeknownst to Gunn, Cordy and Wesley, Angel investigates a squad of zombie police officers who assault everyone in their path---a case also brought to the trio by Anne. What Angel realizes and the others don't is that the attackers are actually reanimated cops who had been killed in the line of duty.
37 "Reprise" Angel's investigation of the city's latest rash of dark rituals garners him a unique opportunity to take Wolfram & Hart out at its source---Hell. As Lilah and Lindsey prepare for the law firm's impending 75-year review, Angel learns that the historically deadly event involves bringing in one of the senior partners (i.e., a big, bad Kleynach demon). The good news is that this demon wears a ring with the power to take Angel straight to W&H's hot Home Office. The bad news is that Angel needs a one-of-a-kind magic glove in order to touch the Kleynach without being incinerated. No, scratch that---the bad news is that Darla has the glove.
38 "Epiphany" After spending an evening with Darla, Angel realizes that being evil is not all it's cracked up to be. Now he needs to regain the trust of Wesley, Cordelia and Gunn.

39 "Disharmony"
While the crew tracks down a cult of vampires led by a former motivational speaker with a wicked pyramid scheme, Cordelia gets a surprise visit from her old high-school buddy Harmony. Unaware her flaky pal's a bloodsucker, Cordy mistakes Harm's strange behavior for lesbianism---until the truth comes out (so to speak) in a call to Willow. Much to the dismay of her co-workers, the ever loyal Cordelia resolves to give her undead friend a chance at fighting for the good guys.
40 "Dead End" The search for a man Cordelia saw in a vision stabbing his own eye leads the gang's path to cross with Lindsey's---whose new right hand seems to have a life of its own. Back at Wolfram & Hart, Lilah fumes and frets over the extra attention that her partner's receiving.
41 "Belonging" Shaken up when a mystic portal deposits a rather violent Drokken demon at his club, the Host takes news of the unexpected man-eating guest to Angel and company. Their only clue to finding it is Cordelia's vision, which leads them to a library with a missing librarian. Meanwhile, Gunn heads to his old neighborhood to help with a vampire problem, and Cordy's spirits take a hit when her acting gig doesn't go so well.
42 "Over the Rainbow" While Cordy struggles to endure the hardships of otherworldly existence-- which include being treated as a slave and referred to as cow---Angel, Wesley, the Host and Gunn work on how to get her back. They decide that the only acceptable (but nonetheless risky) plan is to go to Pylea themselves. Of course, the only way to get there is to first locate another functional portal. And the Host is none too excited about the idea of a homecoming.
43 "Through the Looking Glass"

SEASON THREE
45 "Heartthrob"
After a turbulent summer spent coping with the news of Buffy's death, Angel returns to L.A. in the third-season opener only to run into a couple of nasty blasts from his tarnished past. While out on a routine vamp hunt, Angel happens to dust a bloodsucker from his evil Angelus days. Familiar or not, one less demon on the streets is always a good thing. Unfortunately, her boyfriend of a couple of centuries doesn't share that sentiment---and he's prepared to take drastic measures to exact revenge.
46 "That Vision-Thing"
Cordelia's already painful visions start to have more serious physical side effects. Through telepathy, the Host attempts to track down why The-Powers-That-Be see fit to harm her. Meanwhile, the tenacious, Angel-hating servants of evil (lawyers at Wolfram & Hart) rear their ugly heads yet again.
47 "That Old Gang of Mine" Gunn finds himself stuck between old and new allegiances when he learns that a string of brutal and indiscriminate demon murders is the work of members of his former gang. Even the Host's usually peaceful club isn't immune to the violence. Cordelia, meanwhile, attempts to help Fred readjust to the world.
48 "Carpe Noctem" Angel's body is taken over by a man who, in an effort to stay young, possesses younger guys---and ends up killing them in the process. Angel, meanwhile, is trapped in the soul switcher's frail body in a retirement home. The impostor is unaware of his new vampire status until he takes a bite out of someone.
49 "Fredless" Fred's parents make a surprise visit to Angel Investigations. However, when their inexplicably frightened daughter gets wind of their arrival, she flees the scene. Not trusting Mr. and Mrs. Burkle, the gang prepares to protect Fred from them---providing she can be found. Meanwhile, a strange, insectile demon stalks the crew.
50 "Billy" Angel and Cordelia both knew there would be consequences when he freed the partially demonic (but totally evil) Billy from a fiery prison in hell in order to save her. Those fears are realized when a wave of violence against women is traced back to Billy, whose mere touch has the power to bring out the worst in otherwise good men. The crew rushes to prevent another brutal attack, unaware that Wesley has already been infected---and he's alone in the hotel with Fred.
51 "Offspring" As the crew researches a prophecy predicting the imminent arrival of a being who may have a profound impact on the world, Darla arrives at the hotel--pregnant and angry, looking for the daddy. Cordelia, hurt by Angel's dishonesty, takes Darla's side in the matter. Baffled by how the pregnancy is even possible, Angel and company turn to the Host for some insight.
52 "Quickening" As Angel and the gang try to figure out what exactly is inside Darla--who's now having contractions--news of her pregnancy causes near pandemonium at Wolfram & Hart. Meanwhile, the demon Sahjhan tries to bring a newly resurrected Holtz up to speed on what he missed over the last couple of centuries.
53 "Lullaby" With Darla's contractions getting closer together, even the Angel Investigations gang is surprised when she takes off without them for places unknown. Angel finds her, only to learn how truly conflicted Darla is with the fact that she, a demon, actually loves something: her child. Her heartbreaking fear is that once the foreign soul leaves her womb, she won't be able to love it anymore. As the crew seeks sanctuary at Caritas, Lilah discovers an ominous prophecy concerning the baby.
54 "Dad"
Still trying to figure out how to be a good father, Angel's problems multiply when he and the gang are trapped by several groups of enemies bent on kidnapping his son. Barricaded in the hotel, the group prepares for an inevitable attack. Meanwhile, Holtz goes about recruiting new help for his quest to destroy Angel.
55 "Birthday" A powerful vision knocks Cordy out of her body, leaving her physical self in a vegetative state, but a guide on the astral plane offers her a new lease on life. Unfortunately, it's a life without her friends, who are busy trying to figure out how to get her back. Angel sets out to speak to the Powers That Be, who can presumably revive Cordy and mend her vision-ravaged brain.
56 "Provider" Unprepared for the flood of business brought in by advertising, the Angel Investigations crew splits up to cover more ground---and ends up being spread too thin for its own good. Also, Fred is offered big bucks to solve a demonic puzzle; Angel goes to work for a high-paying businessman; and Gunn and Wesley protect a woman whose zombie ex-boyfriend is stalking her.
57 "Waiting in the Wings" An innocent excursion to the ballet leads the gang to stumble upon members of a dance troupe who haven't aged a day since Angel last saw them in 1890. As they investigate backstage, Angel and Cordy are possessed by the spirits of tormented lovers. Meanwhile, Gunn and Wesley concentrate on putting their respective moves on Fred, unaware of each other's romantic designs.
58 "Couplet"
Exacerbating the tension caused by the office's two latest couplings, Cordy asks Angel to help her achieve the next level of intimacy with Groosalugg. Meanwhile, Fred and Gunn discuss the new wrinkle in their relationship and track an alleged cheating fiancé, whom they promptly lose during a brief make-out session.
59 "Loyalty" Wesley preoccupies himself with protecting Connor and foiling the prophecy about Angel and his son. Meanwhile, Gunn and Fred investigate a purported vamp nest, unaware that the woman who hired them is one of Holtz's lackeys. Gunn and Fred also encounter a stumbling block in their burgeoning relationship.
60 "Sleep Tight" Wesley's preoccupation with the murderous prediction doesn't seem unwarranted when Gunn and Fred witness Angel's frightening display of bloodthirsty behavior on a job. Tests reveal that Wolfram & Hart have spiked the pig's blood Angel drinks with that of his own son, making the situation all the more dangerous. Believing the baby may be safer away from him for the time being, Angel welcomes Wesley's offer to take Connor for the night. Wesley, however, has something else in mind---as do Lilah, Sahjhan and Holtz.
61 "Forgiving" In the aftermath of Holtz's abduction of Connor, the gang attempts to sort out why Wesley betrayed them and how to get Angel's son back from another dimension. The answer to the latter lies in materializing the demon SahJahn, an extremely dangerous prospect. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to his friends, Wesley lies motionless in a park after being attacked by Justine.
62 "Double or Nothing" A Faustian deal Gunn made several years before comes back to haunt him when a demonic repo man arrives to collect his soul---and threatens to use Fred as collateral. Meanwhile, Cordelia returns from her vacation with Groosalugg; Angel remains in a state of shock after losing his son; and Wesley faces a future bereft of his closest friends.
63 "The Price" The hotel is invaded by sluglike creatures that invade and fatally dry out their human hosts. The parasites are by-products of the dark forces Angel conjured trying to rescue his son. The crew barricade themselves inside to hunt down the varmints, but they soon learn that the only way to really see their quarry is to turn off all the lights.
64 "A New World" A dark and emotionally charged episode marks Connor's return to his father's world---as a teenager. But the reunion is not a happy one. Connor attacks Angel at first sight, fully intending to kill him. When he fails, the confused teen escapes to the mean streets of L.A. Determined to set things straight, Angel searches for his son, who in the interim befriends a troubled but kind homeless girl. Meanwhile, the dimensional rift through which the young man traveled continues to cause trouble at the hotel.
65 "Benediction"
Angel and Connor successfully engage in some much-needed father-son bonding when they find themselves fighting side-by-side. Then foster-father Holtz stirs things up by suggesting Connor should leave him to live with Angel. Meanwhile, Lilah continues to work on recruiting Wesley for the bad guys; and Cordelia's closeness with Angel causes a rift in her relationship with Groosalugg.
66 "Tomorrow"
After the initial torment of losing Connor to an interdimensional kidnapping, Angel is downright giddy to once again be reunited with his son. Sadly, Connor's decision to live with his undead dad is forged in deception: Misled by the calculating Justine, the temperamental teen plots to exact (undeserved) revenge against his trusting father. In developments less grim, Lorne moves out of the hotel and makes for greener pastures; and an increasingly powerful Cordelia comes to terms with the fact that she is in love with someone other than Groo.
SEASON FOUR
67 "Deep Down" Angel lies entombed in the murky depths of the Pacific, lonely and hungry to the point of hallucination. He has been betrayed by his own son, Connor, who was himself misled by the vindictive Justine. Above sea level, Gunn and Fred struggle to simultaneously keep Angel Investigations afloat, find their MIA boss and care for his stubborn offspring. But it's the ostracized and hardened Wesley, however, who holds the key to Angel's recovery.
68 "Ground State" The gang infiltrates a black-market auction house to steal a relic that may help them locate Cordelia, but their plans are complicated by competition from a catburglar who's after the same item. Of course, she's no run-of-the-mill thief. She also happens to have the preternatural ability to harness electricity.
69 "The House Always Wins" Angel, Fred and Gunn take a road trip to Las Vegas to enlist Lorne's help in finding Cordelia, but get caught up in a supernatural---and literal---futures trading scheme. A ruthless casino owner holds Lorne hostage, exploiting the popular entertainer's psychic abilities to steal unsuspecting patrons' destinies.
70 "Slouching Toward Bethlehem" Sadly, a serious case of amnesia prevents Cordy from remembering either her friends or her past. Believing the full truth may scare her off, the gang attempts to hide the freaky facts about their lives. Unfortunately, that secrecy leads to mistrust on Cordy's part when the reality of their situation is revealed. Things get even more complicated when Lorne reads her mind and sees a terrifying vision of the future. Meanwhile, outcast Connor struggles to find his place in the world.
71 "Supersymmetry" While delivering a speech to an audience of academics (plus Angel, Gunn, Wesley and Lilah), Fred is attacked by a set of tentacles extending from a mysterious midair portal. But her shock at the assault turns to anger when she pinpoints the perpetrator. Meanwhile, Connor and Cordelia's friendship grows.
72 "Spin the Bottle" Desperate to reverse her amnesia, Cordelia takes a stab at Lorne's supposedly surefire memory-restoration spell. It works as promised, but not as expected. There's one doozy of a side effect---Cordy, Angel, Wesley, Gunn and Fred revert to their teenage personas. Rendered strangers to each other, the unlikely adolescents team up to figure out why they're stuck together in an unfamiliar hotel. Series creator Joss Whedon wrote and directed the episode.
73 "Apocalypse, Nowish" Angel and company brace for the imminent arrival of a hellish beast and toil to stave off Judgment Day (yet again). Although the creature's coming was initially revealed through Cordelia, she is unable to dredge up the ghastly specifics about the otherworldly visitor from her spotty memory. Only one thing is certain---the demon will bring about the end of the world if no one stops it.
74 "Habeas Corpses" The shaky gang gathers at the hotel after a seemingly endless night facing a rain of fire and the emergence of the monster Cordy's vision predicts will bring about the Apocalypse. But before they can decipher recent events, they learn that Connor, who went to Wolfram & Hart to uncover his connection to the Beast, is now trapped in the building with the demon. Angel, along with Fred, Gunn and Wesley, prepares to rescue his son. But first the group must reckon with the firm's employees, who have undergone a strange transformation.

77 "Soulless" Angel's exquisitely evil alter ego is back after the vampire's soul is extracted by a shaman in an attempt to determine Angel's connection to the demon wreaking havoc in Los Angeles. But the sullen supervamp has little love for the derring-do-gooders and soon starts spilling their secrets, aiming to turn the friends against each other. Wes, Fred, Gunn and Connor all get their shot at face time with the caged Angelus, but it's Cordy who holds the key to get him talking.
78 "Calvary" As the gang scrambles to locate Angel's stolen soul, Lilah emerges from the sewers and tries her hand at persuading Angelus to stop the Beast. In other developments, Fred and Gunn make a decision about their relationship; and Angelus makes a comment that has the group looking at the Beast in a different light.
79 "Salvage" Angel's evil alter ego, who's out of his cage and pursuing the Beast, hits a pool hall packed with vamps to see if he can determine the demon's hideout. Meanwhile, at the hotel, Wesley goes about the grisly task of dispatching Lilah's corpse, as Lorne, Fred and Gunn gather ingredients for a protective sanctuary spell. But the gang is all too familiar with the unpredictability of magic, so Wesley pays a visit to the incarcerated Faith to try to persuade her to join the team in the race to prevent Armageddon.
80 "Release"
As Faith recovers from her showdown with the Beast, Angelus surprises Fred at the hotel. He hopes her research will reveal who (or what) motivated the demon's lust for destruction.
