3.1 - Heartthrob

[Jenny]

On a routine patrol, Angel stakes a female vampire. Just before she crumbles to dust she calls him Angelus and he recognizes her from his soulless past. Now, her grief-stricken lover, Angel's old hunting companion, is out for revenge for both the present killing and for a betrayal Angelus committed over 200 years ago.

Let's discuss!!! Favourite lines? Was it a great premiere eppy?

[Angel's vision]

"Cordelia: You see me wearing Curt Eisenthorpe's football ring or Xander's meet medallion? (All three men look at her. Gunn turns to the guys.) Gunn: I'd like to take this one. (To Cordy) So...what kind of meat did he have that earned him a medallion? Cordelia: Not that kind of meat - swim meet, he was on the swim team. Get your mind out of the gutter. All of you! (edit) "

Lol what a quote!

I loved the bit also when Cordy wears the necklace Angel gives her and says "it enhances my breasts, well it's what you guys were thinking right..?"
and Angel going "demon monks..shoulda gone to vagas"

Also there was a nice intro of Holtz.
which reminds me Angelus going "I'm a nice guy once you get to know me..."
That was very funny!

sorry for the late reply, but i just wanted to get my opinion in before the next thread started.
overall, i really like this episode, i thought it was a good season opener. it showed that Angel was dealing with Buffy's death well, even though he thought he shouldn't be.
i really liked Cordelia in this episode. she grew up a lot since last season and you could see that in this ep. she was able to talk to Angel like the woman she was, and not like a high schooler, which is how they started out as.
her line: 'I'm Cordelia. i don't think. i know' sumed Cordy up perfectly.
she was able to reminded Angel that he was living, breathing...well, living anyway... good guy who's trying to help people. which wasn't betraying Buffy's memory, but honouring her.
i loved it when she stuck her tongue ouyt a James as the train pulls away from the platform!
