So a tangential fun fact about the play Cordelia is in at the beginning of the episode. She is doing the Ibsen play "A Doll's House," which I performed in almost two years ago with a local community theatre. I was originally going to direct it, but we didn't have enough guys try out, so one of our other members took over directing and I took on the role of Torvald, who is the husband of the character Cordelia is play, whom she's referring to in the monologue. When I was first reading the script and I came to that part about, "When I've lost my looks a little... when Torvald is not as devoted to me.." I immediately went, "Wait a minute, I know that line! That's in an episode of Angel!"
It's a very good play, and in fairness to Cordelia, the role of Nora, who she's playing, is a _very_ big part, with so many lines. Her character is onstage for 90% of the play. She only leaves the stage for a very small part of Act III.
The thing that really stands out to me in this episode is when Angel/Angelus force feeds the actress (Rebecca?) the bag of blood. It's such a sudden and violent and disturbing moment. It really shocked me the first time I saw the episode.
Ángelus is a bad dude
David is good at playing Angel - but he really shines as Angelus.
Yeah Angel got invited lol. First time I watched the episode, which was on DVD, I had the same thoughts. I had to go back and rewatch the conversation between the 2.
Rebecca: Well, stop by. I'll give you a private screening of
the episode I didn't win the Emmy for.
Angel: Thanks for the invitation, but....
Yeah, I caught that on editing!
For me this is one of the best episodes of S1. I admit that I always preferred Angelus to Angel on Buffy because I found Angel a little saccharine. I much prefer his character away from Buffy, but it's always delightful to get a visitation from his crazy homicidal twin. :)
Boreanaz does play an impressive Angelus. Particularly Angelus's sense of humor, which as dark as it is, cracks me up. It's no wonder that Boreanaz has had such a busy career. He's been a lead or major character almost nonstop since 1997. There's not a lot of actors who have done that.
And this is why I watch your reactions, because you feel things in such a real and wonderful way! You care about people and the characters, you get invested in the stories. Sending you hugs!
Thank you 🥰
This was one of several episodes written during the gap between filming episodes one and two. There was no spot set for the episode, and the original script featured Doyle.
There is a great outtake where Angel stunt double Mike Massa tries to jumo through the glass window, but bounces off of it instead.
I see so many people not understand how Angel becoming Angelus works in this episode. They think the mythology gets screwed up and/or doesn't make sense. I argue against that because Angel never loses his soul. The Doximal drugs make him think so, as they simulate bliss really well. In essence, Angel is feeling the effects of the Doximal, nothing more. It's why the Angelus of this episode doesn't quite act like the Angelus we know from previous episodes. It's no different than if a human were given or had taken it except humans don't have negative predispositions to happiness. That's why when it wears off his soul isn't gone. It was always there. The drugs were just that good.
Nothing in the vampire mythology of the series says Doximal wouldn't affect a vampire. This proves that there is more than one way for Angel to risk Angelus on the population. To me, it's another reason Angel shouldn't ever get complacent about the curse. At the end of the day, Angel "not feeling guilt," as Enyos explains in Innocence by saying, "One moment where the soul that we restored no longer plagues his thoughts, and that soul is taken from him" is how the curse works.
Angel, in this episode, is still feeling guilty, as we can see from the immediacy after him squirting blood in Rebecca's mouth, so in this case, Wesley saying simulated bliss means he still has his soul, but Doximal is so good it is simulating ("an illusion") Angelus. And that is why, as stated above, it can wear off. It always made sense to me and I never believed the curse or shows mythology was messed with.
Assuming things like this couldn't happen is no different than the Scoobies assuming Angel is good when Angelus is cursed with Angel. Angel isn't the one who is cursed. Angelus is. Not remembering that was the danger back in BtVS S2.
I haven't seen anyone confused about Angelus here in the comments, but maybe that's in other places. Thank you for explaining in greater detail, just in case anyone needs some more info!
@@julesreacts It's not as heavy in this comment section. Here, it's more about people not liking it because of how he loses his soul and how it shouldn't be so easy (but that's the same idea as people from other comment sections who think mythology is screwed up). My opinion is he never does lose his soul.
@@Buffy8Fan Right. He doesn't lose his soul, it is only taken out of the driver's seat by the drug. Angelus, as a demon, is always there because that's what keeps the body going with the super powers. But the soul is strong enough to control the feelings to make him care about what he does. To feel the remorse and guilt and not want to hurt people. Lots of people do bad things while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Plus the fact that this drug was said to cause bliss might have made some difference to make it worse than just being drunk or tranquilized.
This episode is a reminder to the audience that Angel (as Wesley puts it) really does walk a fine line. The line between good and evil. It reminds us that as long as Angel is a vampire, Angelus will always be beneath the surface…watching…waiting for an opportunity to finally be free again.
In Angel’s case, his soul really is a curse, because there’s always potential for him to lose it…literally. Luckily in this episode Angel’s soul only became oppressed for a short time while Angelus took over and wasn’t truly lost.
Angel was originally cursed to feel eternal suffering, not joy. And if that joy is ever “truly,” felt, the curse begins to break and out comes Angelus!
Angel now knows this and has a better understanding of it after going through it in Sunnydale. Before he lost his soul in Buffy he didn’t have a clue for 100 years that the curse was linked to his personal true happiness. Which is why from here on out, he’ll always feel a responsibility to not only keep Angelus in check…
But himself as well…
Welcome to Angel’s eternal life in Los Angeles Jules!! Enjoy the ride, and have a good day!! 😁😁
Not just a reminder, but also an introduction to any viewers coming to the show without watching Buffy. I think this episode and I Will Remember You were both to get new viewers up to speed on the lore and backstory for Angel.
I always wonder how early they were given a 2nd season, because 17 episodes in and he's already (temporarily) become immortal, become human, and become Angelus. Seems like a lot!
Yes, it is a lot in just the one episode! I do want to see Angelus again and I never thought I'd say that!
you’re right, Angel was teary-eyed when he and Rebecca were talking while drinking champagne
can’t believe I never noticed that before, but he did have tear tracks on his face
He just makes me feel SO sad for him!
@@julesreacts Angel is such a complex, and yes, tragic character
Really glad we have this show to see it explored more fully
Rebecca invited Angel into her home when they first talked in his office. She said something like, "Stop by sometime. I'll give you a private screening of the show I didn't win the Emmy for." Also, I love how you're the only reactor who knew both that it was the real Angelus and that it would wear off when the drugs did. The other reactors I've seen either thought that Angel was just faking to scare her (which he wasn't), or that it wouldn't wear off (which it did), which means they'd have to curse him again. I really like your instincts. :)
Oh, really?! That is amazing to know! Thank you, David 💜
17:12 Angelus never misses an opportunity for more cruelty, no matter how petty!
And what you said is absolutely true, Angelus is somehow such a magnetic villain even for as convincingly evil as he is played.
Angelus is a unique case, all vampires are inherently evil due to lack of a soul, but Angelus’s monstrosity eclipses the evil of almost every other demon. Even The Master once mentioned that Angelus was the most vicious creature he’d ever met. I can help but wonder why Angelus was worse than every other vampire? 🤔
I think "The Prodigal" goes a long way toward answering that. His sense of self-worth is tied up in being the most horrible monster he can be, to prove his father wrong, to show that he has made something of himself after all.
Because Angel is a sadist. Not just any sort of sadist, but an emotional sadist,l. And the pain and trauma that he delights in is more painful and long lasting than simple death and mayham that most demons delight in. And when he has no soul to moderate his sadistic desires, he really kets it out to play. Episodes like this show the effort he takes to control that side of himself. How, when Angel forces the blood into Rebecca's mouth, that is still Angel, and he enjoyed the fear and terror Rebecca was feeling in that moment. Angelus comes out after that moment. And that is when things get really scary.
Did you notice how clear the drink was a second later when she slipped something in ?😂it was still fizzing before that.
Yes hahaha
This is a really good episode, and i think its an episode that really shows what the show can and will become. The episodes before have been mostly one shot episodes and mostly funny and lite, but this show begins to slowly sneak up on you with the emotional connection between the characters, angels haunting past, and wesley and cordelia getting some serious moments.
Seriously can't wait to get into season 2 and beyond with you on this journey!
Cordelia is playing a character called Nora from a play A dolls house. She is a woman who gives up her husband, wealth, and reputation to leave and find herself. Quite similar to Cordelia. Not a huge fan of the drug induced ending but beyond that, good episode.
Always a favorite episode of mine. Like a hidden gem. Not only because of the Angelus part. I also like the actress who played Rebecca and I think she and Boreanaz had a good on-screen chemistry.
Love this episode! Definitely one of the best from season 1 for me.
Rebecca is quite the tragic character, rich & famous but extremely lonely, still young but already feeling that she's over the hill, and now also finding it hard to land parts. Her plan for Angel to sire her may have been crazy but I can understand why she'd want it.
The brief return of Angelus was the definite highlight. He's a truly scary character. Not only is he a violent, sadistic murderer, but the things he says can also be truly hurtful in their own right. David Boreanez is also just so good at playing him, the difference in his performance between Angel vs Angelus shows just what a good actor he is.
Shout-out to Cordelia in this one, she was on fire. Sooo many funny lines and little moments.
A fun scene to end the episode on. Wesley & Coredlia giving Angel a 'time out' almost like you would with a misbehaving kid, except instead of being sent to the naughty step he was left tied to a bed instead 😂.
Loved the reaction Juliette, awesome as ever 🥰. Thanks, and have a great day.
Neil 💜 honestly, this episode was incredible. I never thought I'd be this happy to see Angelus back so I've really surprised myself here! He was brilliant.... am I now an Angelus fan? Noooo say it ain't so 😭 but I think I am!
Thank you, Neil! Have a great day yourself and stay warm over there 💜🤗💜
We first met Oliver in Episode 1 at the party where Angel saw Cordelia. Oliver gave Angel his business card.
Never in a million years would I have thought that a drug could temporarily bypass a magical curse cast on a vampire. I mean, when I first watched this, I was betting that the happy pill wouldn't have any effect on Angel since he's a vampire (I should've known better - Faith's poisoned crossbow bolt worked on him, after all). Then, when the pill started to have an effect, I never expected Angelus to show up. I mean, Wes and Cordy were having that discussion about how rare a moment of perfect happiness is, but no, apparently not that rare after all. Perfect happiness now comes in pill form. Lastly, I didn't think the effect would be temporary. The curse says he only needs a moment of perfect happiness. It shouldn't matter how long the drug lasts; once Angelus is free, he's free. This episode just kept throwing me off, time and time again.
All that said, I get why they went the route they did. Angelus being permanently free would be too big a deal for Cordelia and Wesley to handle on their own. I doubt those chains would hold Angelus if he really wanted to get out.
8:17-8:19 From Angel to Seely Booth.
I've always loved the stark contrast between Angel and Angelus, and it's a credit to David's acting skills how easily and completely he pulls it off. and I really do believe Cordielia keeps supplies at the ready just in case he turns, she as much promised so in an earlier episode. as for why do Cordie and Westly stay knowing what could happen? easy, they trust their friend, and trust that he knows they'll stop him if needed. love your reaction, I know you love the twists, and I can't wait til you see some of the ones to come! till next time!
I never liked Angelus on Buffy and yet I'm eager to see him again! As long as he doesn't stay long 🤣
It is interesting that you thought Raven was a vampire and that she may not have been human. She is oppressed by her world. I think she feels the fame as dehumanizing, which is why she is so lonely. I think it is what initially drew Angel to her. Also, you are absolutely on the nose about Cordelia and Wesley. Not only do they stick around, but they are also willing to fight him and for him! But I know that part of that is that they know the stakes otherwise! (Pun somewhat intentional... sorry! hehe!) I am really enjoying the series again, and looking forward to the next episode!
Ooooh I love your thoughts! I think her loneliness WAS what intrigued Angel about her. A kindred spirit. Very interesting!!
You're not going to untie me are you? Wesley... Cordelia... guy's! 👍
Cordy " Are you crazy!? Achoooo!" 🤣😂Great episode thanks so much Juliette🥰 Seeing his evil side is always a blast to watch. Kinda takes a break from the goody goody protector of mankind and lets him just be Bad!!!!🤨🤫🙃I think that's why I like Spike as well, bad and just hilariously funny!
Wasn't it amazing?! I really surprised myself with how much I enjoyed this. I'd be very open to seeing more haha!! Have an awesome day, Texman 💜
In Buffy S1, David Boreanaz didn't get a lot of opportunities to be really interesting, and I found his acting to be mediocre. Obviously he Buffy 1x7 "Angel" to be in the spotlight, so that worked out alright. Then, he got more experience with acting and now in this episode, David Boreanaz is super good with the switchover to Angelus. Definitely a good stand-alone episode.
It’s always a treat to see Boreanaz play Angelus.
Good questions about how he managed to crash through the window, very good and astute of you.
You also mentioned that she was not a vampire by looking in the mirror, after you had seen her sunning herself by the pool, how very NOT astute of you 😅
BAHAHA I have a 50/50 rating of astuteness haha
As others have mentioned, and as you talked about in your outro, Angel's tale is a tragic one, and inherently sad when you think about it. As you pointed out, he's very lonely and isolated, and the only people he really has right now are Wes and Cordy. He had Doyle, whom he really cared about, but lost him to the Scourge, and as we saw a few episodes back, that loss still haunts him.
Rebecca could have become another good friend for him, because she wasn't initially afraid. I think this is particularly important to him at this point in time, because Kate did NOT handle it well when she found out what Angel was. Yeah, she was slowly starting to come around, but then Vampires murdered her father and upended her life AND her trust in Angel.
Sadly, Rebecca was just thinking of herself in the end, and that selfishness nearly got everyone killed, albeit very ENTERTAININGLY so. David is SO good as Angelus, and you can tell he relishes playing him whenever the opportunity arises. He has such great comic timing and manages to balance comedy and menace very well.
And how perfect is that ending? Angel chained up on the bed, and left there for who knows how long while Wes and Cordy wait to make sure that the bliss has completely worn off. Maybe they'll be nice and let him listen to a book on tape or something while he lays there? LOL
I honestly find Angel's story to be so sad 😭 I'm just so glad he has people in his life who love and care for him like Wes and Cordy!
1st time I saw this episode, I thought Angel was acting. Like in Buffy with Faith, "Second best."
The scene were Angel forces Rebecca to drink the blood, that was still Angel, enjoying her fear. The drug first took the control he has to contain his sadism. Angelus didn't come out until after that. This is a scene that shows us Angel is a sadist too, that that is not just Angelus.
Definitely worth a rewatch... I say wait till the end and then do it. It's amazing what you pick up on the rewatch, but the further you go, the more you put together
For example, and these are just a few points that you're already past, when you watch back to the beginning.... Buffy asks about the free gift Giles got with his subscription, and he says he got the calendar.... It's a lot different after you know what happened to Jenny😢 . Buffy saying that Malcolm could have a hairy back, hits different after you know about Oz. And those are just a few examples that you are already aware of at this point 🤷. The rewatch definitely gives you new insight into random lines that you might have dismissed previously
There are definitely a ton more insights. But definitely get through the whole series, especially buffy, before you try looking for them
This is one of my favorite episodes of season 1. It's so intense! I did not expect Angelus to come back, but boy did he come back with a vengeance. Forcing Rebecca to drink blood, threatening her and throwing her around, not to mention being completely savage in his words to Wesley and Cordelia... OUCH. I love that moment when Cordelia fakes him out, just for a second, and then she's like, "And the Oscar goes to..." Awesome. ❤ And yeah, sorry, Angel, but you need to stay chained to that bed for a little while in a time-out to think about what you did. 😉 Cordelia refusing to unchain him was really funny. "Uh... Cordelia? Wesley? Guys?" LOL.
You are so right about Cordelia's speech to Angelus. We really saw the depths of her character, there. We could see how scared she was, and I really liked that they brought up what she has to think about day after day, worrying about the day when he might turn and what she might have to do. SO good! I also liked that the writers included a comment from Cordelia to Wesley about Angelus, how Wesley wasn't around when Angelus came out last time, and he has NO idea how bad it was. Great detail.
I remember really liking the concept of this episode. It makes so much sense that an aging actress in a place like L.A. might be feeling enormous pressure to stay young and beautiful to keep up appearances and make her fans happy. It's pretty sad, when you think about it, to have to live like that. So I do understand her thinking that it might be no big deal to become a vampire, especially since Angel seems so nice and normal when she first meets him. She doesn't understand the leash that's holding him back from becoming Angelus, and just how vicious a creature he would be and SHE would also become. It's not just a matter of staying young forever and living an immortal life. It's so much more complicated than that, and she had NO idea what she was dealing with. So I love how shocked and freaked out she was. As she should be! Because Angelus is terrifying.
But there's an amazing energy that David brings to the screen when he plays Angelus that's just so fun to watch. Even though he's so horrible, he's also incredibly engaging and vibrant. If you think about it, David really played both roles well -- Angelus is completely uninhibited and fearless and vicious, while Angel is in contrast so restrained and quiet and cautious in everything he does and says, which makes sense because Angel is so conscious of what he used to be, who he has hurt or killed, and how careful he needs to be to avoid becoming Angelus ever again. You said it well when you called it precarious. As Wesley says, "You walk a fine line, Angel. I don't envy you."
This episode had SUCH great moments in it! I would love to see Angelus again. I welcome it, in fact! Oh, how times have changed!
Sherry, thank you for your wonderful comment! It was a pleasure to read!
@@julesreacts Anytime! I adore your reactions. They're so much fun to watch. 😊
P.S. Somewhere out there, Jenny Calendar is like, "Ummm... did you forget about what Angelus did to me??" 😉😆
I do think it was a little unfair for Cordelia to leave him there. He didn't take the drugs, after all and it wasn't truly his fault.
Don't think of the drugs as releasing Angelus. Think of it more of blocking Angel.
Angel's soul is what guides him to resist his instincts. He is a vampire and that part of him is always there just caged up and angel is the guard.
The drugs got rid of the guard for a bit.
Note to Cordy and Wes: make Angel say no to drugs!
One of my favourite episodes of season 1! Great reaction!
Thank you 😸
I kinda liked the meta of the actress playing Rebecca. Her character was in her mid 20s trying to 'look' eternally 22. But the actress was in her 30s for that episode. So she was an 'aging' actress playing someone reaching her later 20s trying to play a barely legal-to-drink character.
"Surrounded by people and so lonely." A call back to Buffy, Season 1, Out of Mind Out of Sight.
Ahhh yes!!
I can't believe I'd forgotten about this one, because it's so good! I love that they came up with a new and interesting angle to explore a regression back into Angelus. Chemically induced happiness, leading to a short-term change - brilliant!
We also see Wesley and Cordelia continuing to come into their own, which I love. They're proving themselves quite capable of handling situations on their own, which is something Angel needs for when Angelus rears his ugly head.
You're really chugging along from the first season, aren't you? I can't wait for the next one.
I never thought I'd be so happy to see Angelus 🤣 he sure brings the excitement!
Hope you're having a great week, Ashley 👋
We only support Cordelia in this house!
I agree with your comment about Rebecca inviting Angel into her home. Perhaps she had suspected early on that Angel might be a vampire, and she may have read up on them prior to visiting his office. So, however she did it, he was safe to enter her home.
I sometimes might miss when the invite happens as there's a lot of stuff going on to try and remember 😸 But I'm glad she did invite him. I wonder if she DID suspect early on... Very interesting!
I have mixed feelings on this episode. On the one hand it's great to see Angelus. But on the other hand, this 'drug' breaks the lore of his curse so badly they pretend it never happened the rest of the show.
I've never been so pleased to see Angelus 🤣
I think I like the building up of the characters & their dynamic the best. However, I always enjoy seeing Angelus. Always have, always will. His dark sense of humor is the best. I wouldn't want to actually meet him, of course. I don't care for him. I just find him entertaining. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
I'm definitely more into Angelus these days! I just saw him on my Buffy re-watch haha and it was so much better the second time 🤣
@@julesreacts Yes! Hope you have a wonderful week!! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Hi Jules!
1. I loved your words of choice, calling them an "interesting pair", usually in other reactions the words "couple, cute, hot, etc." fall.
2. Interesting how you now are suspecting nearly everyone to not be human.
Have a wonderful day.
Ahhh thank you 😸
love this episode and it was also strange that drugs could temporarily dispel the curse.
The curse was not dispelled because Angel never lost his soul. The curse remains intact.
The drugging allowed the writers to explore what happens in the margins of the curse... in this case during artificially induced euphoric feelings.
I think we need more love for Wes. Yeah, he's kinda annoying, very annoying actually but his heart really is in the right place and you can't deny he is brave.
Yes!! He is SO brave!! I adore him!!
@@julesreacts Isn't it marvelous how we can change our minds about Wesley as a character? I love that so much! I never, ever would have expected to like his character because he was so annoying on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but here he gets much more depth and background and development. Each episode as he grows as a character, I marvel at how much I like his character now. It's a surprise and a delight!
And each episode he's in, I find myself laughing about it all over again, because I really never would have expected to see him again after Buffy season 3, much less be a character that I'm genuinely interested in. I love it.
Almost to my favorite Angel episode of the season. 😊
It was SUCH a good one!
Hi Juliette I'm ready for more Angel
this is a great episode and I really like
Cordelia have a nice week Thanks
my friend.🇦🇺😸🇦🇺
Hey Roger!! Thank you! Have an awesome day!
Michael Mantell as Oliver Simon is 5'7" of fafh in this episode.
Good Morning, Jules.💜 You look all set to be shocked, so I'll just start watching!😲
Hello Mr Tom Swift 😸💜 Have a beautiful Monday evening, stay warm, and enjoy the hijinks 😜
Thank you, Ms Jules.💜 It will be much easier to stay warm as it is attempting to skip spring and just head into early summer, as usual here.
I just wanted to commend your analysis of the episode. 5:42 - a great question - same one I had. 8:47 - very perceptive, and you have seen him before, 10:23 - again, spot on, and 11:36 - annoyance! - Angel has 3 people looking out for him this night!
A tremendous flip (very well done), and most excellent acting from the 3 main characters - especially Angel, and Cordelia. A very well written episode - the minor kerfuffle over minor things aside... it's a work of fiction, not a documentary... it entertains! - and well acted. One of the best from season 1 so far.🥰
Enjoy your Tuesday, Jules.💜 Thank you, once again, for enjoying this show enough to put so many hours into producing these reactions.😊
I'm sorry but I fast forward to the part when Angelus came out to play , best character in the buffy verse
That was a definite highlight haha
Finally! I actually liked this episode! Thanks Jules.❤
My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it 😸
Prepare yourself! A hurricane is on the way to LA!
Keep up the good work, Juliette 💜.
Thank you! 🤗
Good reaction eternity is a great episode 👍
💖💖✌✌🤗🤗
This episode always bothers me. The end makes 0 sense. Being happy real or synthetic doesn't make him evil. Losing his soul does. If it didn't make him lose his soul he wouldn't be evil. Period.
I always hated how this episode played out. I don't like the idea that the arcane forces that put his soul in place can be fooled so easily, or that his soul can simply return once it's worn off. Not after the body count and effort required to put it back the first time on Buffy. Although Boreanaz, Charisma and Alexis are all bringing it home brilliantly, drugged Angelus is truly terrifying. Bad plot holes, great performances.
Oooh so true! I didn't think of that aspect!
His soul isn't removed in this episode, it's just inhibited by the drug. Once the drug is out of his system, Angel - the soul - regains control over Angelus, the demon.
@@therealpbristow First word: Cop. Second word: Out.
My comments are not showing up.
Noooo 😭😭 I'm sorry! Sometimes youtube is silly. I'll check in the held for review section!
The ducklings thinks Bill from the last of us show was right. They worship him.
I'll tell you more next video.
To be honest, Bill was pretty darn amazing in that show! I liked him way more than the one in the game hehe
Actress drugs Angel with a drug that makes him feel happy so he temporarily turns evil. That doesn't even make any sense. Angel turns into Angelus because he loses his soul as a condition of the gypsy curse. So, since the "happiness" is drug induced his soul temporarily goes away? The Gypsy curse recognizes the difference between "real" and "drug induced" happiness and treats them differently? Makes no sense at all.
It's a fun episode to watch, but the gimmick doesn't make sense with established lore.
The soul wasn't gone, but it was suppressed by the drugs.
@davidmeadows5627 and why would the drugs suppress the soul. That would have to be "written in" to the curse and why would the folk who created the curse include such a provision?
One of my least favourite of Angel season I though I love the intro. It does fit nicely with the Empath demon's read of Cordelia's own belief in her acting ability.
Interesting that you thought she was a vampire right away. I never got that vibe but it makes a lot of sense as you watch it again and has an element of truth.
Nice view of angelus again. Love how horrible and how petty evil can be.
The agent called Angel a very beautiful man and told him to call him at the party in the first episode.
Rebecca seemed to know so much about vamps from the get-go! To be honest though, I am starting to be suspicious of just about everyone haha
@@julesreacts Yes Trust of anything Joss has put up for you see is generally a mistake.
