#13 year old alexis is really jumping out huh

[what-a-messek]

It's a fact well understood and accepted about myself that I go through phases of obsession/fixation with media and can only commit to the fullest to some at a time even when I watch multiple things regularly but I do feel a little disappointed in myself when I'm like "I can't possibly watch this additional CR content when I could instead be watching Glee or Dan and Phil videos!" like good god it's bleak out here

Hey! It’s a Kate episode! I like Kate. 1. Person running away. Weird camera effects. Caught by guy with metal nail. Who is a vampire. Eaten. Very eaten. 2. Wait. Was Angel. But was a dream. Angel doesn’t have a metal nail. 3 Kate is investigating the woman’s death. It’s a serial killer. He drew a cross on her face with his metal nail before eating her. 4. Hey, Alexis Denisof is in the opening credits! 5. Jeremy Renner is in this one. Huh. 6. Cordy is rehearsing working with a client. Wesley has not taken a job with them, but is there to share intelligence. Everything seems quiet. Somehow, both Angel and Wesley have missed the serial killer. 7. The vampire serial killer. 8. He got the wrong mail, but the wrong mail gave him some information. He’s not giving it to Cordy though. 9. The DMV won’t give them info on a license plate because they worry Angel and Cordy might be stalking them. They should get a bloody license! 10. “Wow. You look half dead. … Which for someone who’s completely dead would be kind of neat.” 11. Angel thinks he’s fine. But he forgot he bursts into flames in sunlight. 12. Wesley is sneaking around. 13. Kate is going to help him with the license plate. She knows he’ll appreciate it. She wants to get her head out of the case. So far, the serial killer has killed a volunteer crossing guard, an 11-year-old girl, and a waitress. He kills them all the same way. 14. Kate saw him staring at the photo of the woman he dreamed about murdering. That’s the waitress. 15. Kate: “The tabloids are calling him ‘the Pope.’ Probably thinks he’s doing God’s work.” Angel: “No. Just the opposite. This is about mocking God.” 16. Angel just Batmanned away. 17. Kate is describing the killer. She’s basically describing Angel, if Evil Angel was able to take him over. 18. “What is not in question is his experience. He’s been doing this for a very long time, and he will do it again.” 19. Wesley is looking for Angel with a stake. Wesley thinks Angel has gone evil. In the late 1700s, Angelus signed his victims by carving a cross into their left cheek. Cordy doesn’t believe him and is throwing Wesley out. 20. Angel: “Cordelia. He’s right.” Cordy: “You stake him and I’ll cut his head off.” 21. Huh. Angel is being Captain Communication. He thinks he might be sleep-murdering. 22. “My glamorous LA life. I get to make the coffee and chain the boss to the bed. I should join a union.” 23. “Cordelia, I think that’s tight enough.” “If it turns out that we’re back on the liquid lunch? Better safe than cocktails.” 24. Cordy is leaving. Wes is, I think? sticking around. 25. Flashback to powdered wig days! Woman running away at night. From someone who just caught her. With a metal nail. Carved a cross in her cheek. Ate her. 26. There was another killing. Angel was chained to the bed all night. But he says he did it. Because his friend who he turned did it. He ate his sister. Now he’s going to eat his father. His name is Penn. 27. “I taught him well.” “A real Psycho-Wan Kenobi.” 28. Wesley is a Gallagher fan. 29. “You can’t walk into a police precinct with intimate knowledge of these murders and claim a 200-year-old Puritan’s responsible. You’d be locked up faster than Lady Hamilton’s virtue.” 30. Angel is worried for Kate. He’s at the precinct. 31. Angel wants to talk to Kate in private. 32. Yep. Penn is deliberately recreating murders he and Angel committed together. Angel gave Kate a picture of Penn and told her who his next victim will be. Angel also stole a police radio. 33. Penn found is victim. Police see him walking off with the victim. Cops saw Penn eating the guy, but Penn did a crazy jump and got into a building. Angel and Wesley are on their way. Kate is going into the building, though. Nobody has mentioned Penn’s impossible jump to her. Angel is climbing the gutter to get into the building. I think Wesley is going through the front door. 34. Kate found Penn. She’s threatening to shoot him And did shoot him, three times. Now she’s walking over to check the body, which is a bad idea. There should be police swarming the building now, after shots were fired. Penn just stood up. Angel came in through the roof. 35. Penn is talking to Angel about eating Kate, but now they’re fighting. Pretty sure Kate just saw Angel’s game face. Definitely seeing impossible acts of strength and agility. 36. Angel tells Kate to run away. She doesn’t. I think she just got hurt fairly badly. And definitely saw his game face. Kate just pulled her gun on Angel, and Angel basically confirmed what she knows. He’s telling her about vampires. 37. He’s burning his hand on her cross. She just smelled it. She’s not ready, but she knows. But she’s looking at really, really old archives. 38. Oh god. Penn’s in the office. Talking to Cordy. This is a bad, bad thing. 39. Wow, Cordy is telling far too much. But she figured that out and opened the blinds. 40. And Penn grabbed Wesley to get away. 41. Kate and Penn are both doing research. Angel is walking the streets. 42. Great. Kate learned about Angelus, too. She knows Angelus made Penn, too. Kate is planning to kill Angel. 43. Penn has a single building he likes to flee to. They just established that vampires can enter each other’s homes. 44. Penn has middle school bus schedules. But Angel knows that. Penn is at the precinct attacking the cops. And doing a hell of a job of it. He just got Kate. Angel’s at the precinct too, looking for a way in. Or maybe out. 45. Yep. Out. Penn is planning to turn Kate, but she had holy water. Penn is attacking Angel now. “You’re my real father, Angelus.” “Fine. You’re grounded.” 46. Kate is getting some wood. Pointy wood. While Angel and Penn fight. But Penn stopped her. Kate staked Penn through Angel’s stomach. “You missed.” “No, I didn’t.” Angel fall down. Kate fall down. 47. Angel is brooding on the roof and talking to Cordy now. Cordy had a vision. She’s giving Angel a new job. 48. “I wonder if anything ever changes.” “Sure it does. They do. You have.” 49. “People do change, Angel.” “Yes they do. And sometimes they change back. The day ever comes that I…” “Oh, I’ll kill you dead.” “Thanks.” “What are friends for?” Overall: Huh. That was good. It wasn’t one of the best episodes in the franchise, but it was hella solid, and a fun watch. I wish they’d followed up on Kate after the last fight, though what happened with Cordy and Angel there might have been more important. I really love Kate, and this was a great episode for her. She was clever and adaptable and resourceful, and just came off as a total badass. And good police. Well-done there, everyone involved.
