Angel

Angel: Episode 10

Just a heads up, this is a very convoluted episode, even reading through the summary several times, it’s really not clear what is real and what is not.

 Angel is having nightmares throughout the episode, most of which focus on Spike taking over Angel’s role as Champion.
 Spike is approached by a man, named Sean, in a strip club. Who says that he’s having visions and offers the role of Champion to Spike. (Note: Wendy reports that Sean seems to be written as Glenn Quinn would have spoken, but that another source claims that Sean is really Lindsey and Christian Kane will return for this episode).
 Spike’s becoming a Champion is very reminiscent of the first season of ’Angel’.
 Angel dreams that Spike saves the world from Armageddon, where he is made human by the blue fairy.
 Apparently, the entire scheme is a plot hatched by Eve and Sean, who have planted a parasite on Angel.
 Lots of interesting hallucinations/dreams for Angel. Including Fred ripping out his guts, Spike having sex with Buffy, and Wesley staking him.
 The episode ends with Spike ripping the parasite off of Angel, saving him.
 Angel blames Eve, as she was the one who planted the parasite in his dreams. She says it was just another hallucination, but Angel doesn’t believe her. He thinks Eve is acting on her own, against the wishes of the Senior Partner, but Eve tells him not to be so sure of things.

From Buffistas.org :

So there I was, on the set yesterday (Tues), playing a stip club patron. Seated at a table seated with a gentleman in a suit who could be the spitting image of Harvey Korman -20 years. He is an interesting story alone but this is about what’s going on at another table about ten feet away. The entire scene was between JM and an actor who; looks just like Lindsey and whose name was Christian, only with longer hair and pretty-boy bangs (ladies can swoon here). The "call me Sean" line delivered to Spike was probably him being coy. In the way that we all know that’s not really his real name but hey, Spike doesn’t know that so, whatever works.

I got dialoge more or less memorized that’s also pretty spoilery and being new at this I’m not entirely sure how much is too much. So in the same vein I’m gonna white-font that too.

S: You sent that package, with the anti-ghost mojo.

L: ...and?

S: The amulet, you mailed it to Wolfram & Hart.

L: Couldn’t leave your spirit bottle up in the bottom of the Hellmouth, could we?

S: We...?

And there’s other stuff too, about visions that are really painfull and Spike needing to be a champion and go help people because there’s no one else doing it anymore. Really reminded me of when Doyle met Angel.

That was my Tuesday in a nutshell and I hope it clears up some confuzzlement. I’m pretty positive it’s Lindsey returning. Mainly because I just saw him in a rerun today and it is the same guy
