The One Where Angel Becomes Human...

I absolutely love this episode. It's such a good idea. The theme is really inventive.

After the last episode of Buffy The Vampire, where Angel visited Buffy in Sunnydale, Buffy returns the favor and visits Angel is Los Angeles. Whilst she's there, they both get attacked by a demon and Angel gets infected with the demon's blood. He then realizes that he has turned back into a human. A breathing, non-exploding-in-sunlight person. And the first thing he does: eats everything in sight. Then he gets to experience sunlight again, which for someone who hasn't been able to be in it in two hundred years, except for that hour or two when Spike came to visit, is really amazing. Is it weird that every time someone comes to visit Angel, he can go in sunlight? Maybe not every time, but at least twice. He and Buffy "hang out" and he realizes that he can finally be with her fully. In every way. But then, some stuff happens, and Angel gets people to turn back time, so he never got infected. He's the only one with the memory of him and Buffy getting back together.

Overall, I give this episode a 9 out of 10.
