Angel is desperate to rescue Darla from the clutches of Wolfram & Hart and flashbacks reveal what a dangerous and powerful relationship they shared as history weirdly seems to be repeating itself. The trip down memory lane begins with Darla's sire by the Master and ends with the gang of Spike, Drusilla, Darla and Angel being torn apart when he gets a soul.

a fantastic episode .. especially when following fool for love, and well the replay of william meeting angelus and co :thumbsup: and the replay of the boxer event (angel wanting to come back with darla but failing because he can kill a baby)

angel and his drawing skills :rolleyes:

darla story from her "meeting" with the master to today

love the master vs angelus (bloody but excellent)

lyndsay being tricked to call angel to rescue darla (how can the firm trust that guy???)

darla threatening the gypsie but her plan failling because of spike :fear:


D: You'll make the pain stop, won't you?

A: Takes time.

D: Takes moments. Do it. Now. Turn me back. God, I can't bare this pounding in my chest for another instant.

A: It's a gift -- to feel that heartbeat, to know really and for once that you're alive.

D: I released you from this world once. I gave you eternal life. Now it's time for you to return the favor.

A: Favor? Is that what you think? You think you did me a favor? You damned me.

I really like this episode because it's a follow up from Fool for love but it shows Darla and Angel's side.PLus we also get to see how The Master learned of Darla and a bit about her human past.The Master meeting Angelus for the first time :thumbsup: I feel kind of sorry for Darla in this episode and her and Angel is always good to watch.

This is one of my fave Angel eps. I wsn't keen when they first brought Darla back but by this stage I'm loving it. :thumbsup:

O know what you mean about trusting Lyndsey :lmao:

Overal this has to be 8/10 as it would have been impproved IMO by a flash back of Angel killing Darla in BTVS

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: One of the best eps of the series, superb.

The flashbacks, the history between Angel and Darla and Dru with Spike of course.

Interesting idea that Angel would still return to Darla even with a soul but whilst he could pull off killing thieves and murderers he couldn't murder innocents. Still his love for her was powerful.

Darla brilliantly cool in rejecting him for his disgusting stench of humanity :lol:

It is quite a sad episode though we see Darla falling apart as Angel predicted although it seems to take Lindsey by suprise, mmmm Lindsey :drool:

Got to feel sorry for him being duped by Holland once more, really can't wait to see Hollands fate again ;)

Excellent episode brilliantly paced I can't wait to watch the conclusion to this arc again and then I might watch it again :thumbsup:
