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)

*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.

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.
