Episode 5 spoilers

Okay, the gist is that Lorne's empathy goes into overdrive, making everyone very susceptible to his suggestions. I can't wait to see ADD hyper-cheerful this-swizzle-stick-ROCKS! Spike (I love his line "Hi! I like your horns!"), but my big complaint is this:

Lorne makes an offhand comment about the UST between Angel and Eve. Seconds later, they rush off to have sex. All well and good, but couldn't he have said UST between Angel and Wes? Huh? Once again, a cast-iron opportunity for Angel/Wes slash onscreen, and it's missed!

(ETA: Angel and Eve get interrupted before they can do the deed)

Dude, wait. Isn't this like six Star Trek episodes?

God damn, Joss! If you're gonna steal, don't steal from the crappiest episode of DS9 ever! Does this not remind you of the episode where Lwaxana Troi infected people with her horniness because she had some flu?

Come to think of it... yeah. It's DS9 with Big Gay Demons.

Now I'm imagining everyone going around saying "Peldar Joy!" and the "what if Ep 5 had gone like this?" fanfic.

"Peldar Joy, Angel!"
"Peldar Joy, Lorne!"
"Gee, Angel, you and Spike have the crackly sexual chemistry. Why don't you just marry him?"
"Gee, Lorne. Because we're not in Canada? But otherwise, great idea."

*snicker* Evil. Evil. Evil.

Wait, they rush off to have sex and achieve said goal? Or they just rush off to do it but don't get there, because I thought the whole Angel-doing-the-horizontal-wacky thing was a leeeeetle more signficant than that.

Or is it? I'm new to the show. Has Angel gotten any in four years?

Darla in season 2, and the rest of the times only in his dreams. Poor Angel *pets him*

It's heavily hinted throughtout Season Three that he also slept with the Furies who cast the Sanctuary Spell at Caritas.

Oh O.o I didn't even think of that :) Thanks.

They rush off to do it but don't get there. I think Lorne splits them up before things can get that far.

A potted sexual history of Angel:

Season 1:
I Will Remember You. Turns human after coming into contact with the blood of a Mohra demon. Shags Buffy. Finds out if he stays human, she'll die in an upcoming apocalypse (dunno if this was supposed to mean The Gift), so he has the Powers take back the day. He stays a vampire and Buffy never remembers he was human.

She. UST with a female demon.

Season 2:
Under Wolfram and Hart's influence, Angel spends a good few episodes having sex with Darla in dream sequences (although she really is in his room)

Reprise - after a fairly dark period, including firing Cordy, Wes and Gunn and locking a group of evil lawyers in a cellar with Darla and Dru, he has sex with Darla, with the express purpose of losing his soul. Since he doesn't achieve perfect happiness, he keeps the soul and has an epiphany instead, which leads him to get back with his gang. This is the conception of Connor.

Season 3:
Forget the episode, but it's implied he's had sex with a supernatural trio called the Furies. This could have been at any time, though.

Carpe Noctem: An old man uses magic to take over Angel's body. Comes close to shagging Lilah on the office desk, but stops when he accidentally vamps out and bites her.

Waiting in the Wings: Angel and Cordelia are possessed by the spirits of dead lovers. They don't have sex, but we see Angel kissing down her bare stomach and below her belly button before it (naturally) cuts away.

Season 4:
Awakenings - Angel has sex with Cordelia, loses soul - but, no, it was part of a spell designed to extract said soul by making him dream/hallucinate he'd experienced perfect happiness.

So, he's had sex. But for the most part he was either not himself or it didn't really happen.

Lorne makes an offhand comment about the UST between Angel and Eve. Seconds later, they rush off to have sex.

*has season three flashbacks*

....Seriously. The concept just makes me twitch. Not even if they'd left Lilah or Lindsey in Eve's place could the crappiness of that idea be redeemed.

*crawls into the corner and sits there rocking back and forth*

No...it wouldn't be better. Though mind you, I'd believe Angel having sex with Lindsey--the UST between those two could have been cut with a chainsaw. I think that beheaded-but-head-sewn-back-on, dead, lost soul Lilah is out as a partner for Angel, as Wesley seems eager to resume that seriously kinky and squickable relationship.

I'd like Lorne to wind up with Andrew, personally, not that that is ever going to happen. I just think that each of the gay males from each show should be together. I think they'd get along well.

I'm loving the spoilers too. Actually, it positively reeks of Something Blue as well, but it'll definitely be its own take on the theme.
