Summary
Angel sees Cordy and Conner making love from a rooftop near where they lay.
Angel storms away punching his way through doorways. Meanwhile Fred's waiting
anxiously at the hotel for Gunn. After a phone call, which isn't Gunn but a
client, Gunn, Lorne and Wesley all make it back safely. Gunn wants to regroup
and head back out there, Wesley thinks otherwise, and Fred agrees with him.
Wesley wants them to wait for Angel to get back. Upon saying that he returns and
goes straight to his room, feeling extremely beat down and dejected. The next
morning Cordy wakes up laying next to Conner regretting the previous night's
events. She tries to explain to Conner what happened, and that it can't go any
further. But Conner takes it badly and storms out. Wesley's returned home and
gets a visit from Lilah who's relieved to see him still alive and hugs him when
he opens the door. Wesley pulls back and explains to Lilah that it's over
between them. Lilah, at first, doesn't believe it and explains to Wesley that
he'll never get Fred, after saying that she walks out of the door. Back at the
hotel Gunn and Fred are researching The Beast but have come up with nothing.
Cordy arrives and goes to see Angel. Angel gives Cordy the cold shoulder.
Cordy's worried about Conner running off the way he did, but Angel thinks she
talking about what happened the previous night. Cordy then tells Angel that The
Beast rose from where Conner was born and Conner feels somewhat responsible.
At Wolfram & Hart Lilah's on the phone. Gavin's in the room as well. Turns
out the Senior Partners want Wolfram & Hart to get in touch with The Beast
and take him on there, and want Lilah and Gavin to do that. Gavin walks out of
the office but soon he returns with Conner forcing him back in. Conner demands
Lilah tell him everything he knows about The Beast and himself. At first Lilah
calls in security but Conner deals with them. After a threat from him Lilah sits
down and agree to talk with Conner. The lights suddenly go out and Gavin picks
up a walkie talkie from a passed out security guard. Down in the lobby things
don't sound too good, there's a massacre going on. Conner tells them, it's here.
The people at Wolfram & Hart are fleeing in all directions. Lilah's
following Conner, but after she realises he's going after The Beast heads off
elsewhere. The Beast discovers Gavin in a closet looking for something. In an
instant Gavin's killed by The Beast and flung on the floor. Shots are heard from
the building as The Beast is heading for Lilah, though bullets don't stop him.
He pins her down and stabs her with his fingers. He gets distracted by a man on
the floor and knocks Lilah to the ground. Conner jumps in and attacks. Lilah
takes this time to run. Conner's thrown into the walls, breaking concrete as he
goes. The Beast sets to get Lilah. As Lilah runs Wesley pulls her into a room.
Together they go to where Gavin was killed, Lilah says there's another exit
there as the whole building has been locked down. They pull a lever and fall
into the sewers just in time. There Wesley gives Lilah some advice and leaves
her there. Before he goes Lilah tells Wesley that Conner's still in there.
Back at the hotel the gang are still trying to suss out The Beast. Wesley
arrives back and tells Angel that Conner's trapped in Wolfram & Hart with
The Beast. Back at Wolfram & Hart Conner's making his way through the
building. He passes Gavin's corpse, but upon passing it Gavin's eyes open again.
Angel and the gang begin to gear up to get Conner. Cordy reckons she's going as
well, Angel tells her to stay with Lorne and asks Fred to hurry up. That puzzles
Cordy. Wesley leads the gang to where he came out from. An argument brews
between him and Gunn, Angel shouts at them to cool it while they're doing this.
He then jumps up the thirty metre shaft and drops a rope down for the others to
climb up. They all head to where Wesley says Conner is and get rid of the
rubble, but Conner's not there. They split, Angel heads up one end of the
building while Wesley, Fred & Gunn go search another and they'll meet at the
top. On the seventh floor Angel hears something, someone rushes to him, Angel
grabs, and it's Conner. He hugs him and tells them they have to go. As they turn
one of the dead former employees gets up. Angel begins to explain to Conner what
a zombie is as they head off, meanwhile Gunn, Fred & Wesley have their fair
share of zombie problems. They eventually get together again. Angel has a plan
that instead of going back down they head towards the lift where they can get to
the White Room and ask the girl or evil thing there to get them out. They get to
a lift and Fred begins to work on the lift controls to get it working again as
the guys fend off the zombies, one of them being Gavin whom Gunn kills.
She gets the lift working and Angel plugs in the code to get to the White Room,
twice, and they're off. Though once they get there it's bad news. The Beast has
killed the girl and is now after them. The girl incants something and the gang
are transported back to the lobby of the hotel. Angel's busy shuffling papers in
his office. Cordy tries to talk to Angel but he doesn't seem to interested.
Cordy says she's happy that they're all together, Angel agrees. Then tells Cordy
to take her new boyfriend and get the hell out. Cordy's shocked by this as Angel
walks out...
