Wow. I had a totally different perception of this episode.
Spike & Harmony's "nooner" was (or at least started out to be) hilarious. Okay, guy has been a ghost for two months. Suddenly he has a body. What is the FIRST thing a guy wants to do? Duh...get laid. Harmony still has no respect for herself so she fell for it.
I have re-watched the last ten seconds about fifty times. I cannot get enough of the fact that Lindsey is back. I stopped watching the show about half-way through last season. Found out Marsters was coming on board so I started watching it again.
I told all of my friends that I was mad at myself for falling for their ruse. The ONLY way they could get me back as a viewer was to bring on Marsters. Okay, there were TWO things they could do, I told them, they could also bring back Lindsey, but I thought that would never happen.
I am beyond thrilled to see Christian Kane again! And him being evil???? Puh-lease. He is NOT going to turn out to be evil. All those protective runes; he is HIDING from the senior partners. It will turn out that he is desperately trying to bring THEM down by using Angel. His last words to Angel before he left LA:
"The key to Wolfram and Hart is to never let them make you play their game. You have to make them play YOUR game."
He knows Angel is now playing their game and is trying to do something about it.
That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.
See ya on the 14th. :-)

I think all that really needs to be said, for any discussion, is season five proves that Joss works best when he works in an arc.
Season five's highlights have all been the episodes that tie together. The Eve/Lindsey/Senior Partners run.
Of course, when he over-arcs (Buffy's last season), things drop. But he seems to be the master of loose-and-tight arc at the same time.
