I loved Adam in this episode. Here, the whole time you're thinking this unstoppable and ultra powerful assassin is coming to kill Eve....and then he pulls out a pen! I have to agree with Lorne, I didn't see that one coming. I'm really interested to see how his character fits into the scheme of things during the last (man it sucks to say that ) five episodes.

Also, did anyone else catch Illyria's reference to one of Joss' running jokes when she was talking about all the dimensions she'd visited? "I was even in a world of nothing but shrimp. I didn't like that very much". HI-larious!

"How drunk was I last night?"

Yep, noticed that one too! I think I said out loud, "So what's with the shrimp anyway?" hehe...

So good to get a new Angel ep after such a long dry spell. But got real sad when the screen declared the countdown to the final 6 episodes.

On Adam's appearance:

Select to view spoiler:

He looked mighty fine in that high class suit. But I cringed when he put his fist through that guard's chest. I mean, heck, that's gonna ruin that suit! Then when we saw him later, he was still all clean and spiffy.

Guess he sprayed 'Super Strength Demon Grade Scotch Guard' all over before he left for his busy day!

Adam was so funny when Harmony was trying so hard to fight him. He stood there absolutely unaffected by her climbing all over him and just looked mildly annoyed... like, "What's this fly buzzing around me?"

When Adam finally spoke at the end, he seemed to affect a somewhat fastidious air. Which was quite a hoot after his menacing and deliberate pursuit beforehand. Should be fun to see Adam bein' all corporate suity and Machiavellian and stuff.

Angel is so damn good. Gawd it makes me mad that it's ending. It's the ONLY show I call "Must See TV" and ALWAYS make sure to tape.

Gonna cry now...

My wife endures this show & my great fascination with it. The whole "demon" thing bugs her.

Anyway, she has been watching with me since "You're Welcome" (I was out of town & she had to tape it for me, so she watched it.)

I can tell she's starting to like the show. Needless to say, the extra bonus of telling her Adam Baldwin, (aka Jayne) was on last night kinda won her over. Her favorite was the scream from Eve, Harm & Lorne.

May the sun at your back always be in another dimension - yep I just made that up!

Adam was perfectly cast for this! He is so big and intimidating, and then he acted so calm and professional when he removed Eve's immortality! LOL
What a great episode...wonderful homage to Anya (with the Shrimp reference)
WONDERFUL seeing Mercedes in the opening credits (Joss is such a wonderful boss!)

I'm thrilled that they have thrown out the 'stand alone' and are going for the big arc end to the show!
(I'm just miserable that it is the end...)

I LOVED Adam in this episode. The triple scream by Eve, Lorne, and Harmony was especially funny! For the life of me I can't remember what Adam's character's name is, I just keep calling him Jayne. Maybe we should call him WDJ for Well Dressed Jayne? Best hour of TV I have seen in AGES.

Jayne: "How big a room?"

My favourite part was when Lindsey came out the first time, to that spritely 50s music. I just thought If he breaks into song, I'm . . . Well, no, I'm not leaving. Actually, that'd be kinda cool.

We need Sweet (from Once More With Feeling) to do a guest spot.

I liked Spike's Knight Rider reference. Would'a thought Gunn at least would get it. I mean, he compares real life to Daredevil comics, but he doesn't know Knight Rider?!?

Also, Wes calling Illyria a Smurf.

maybe Gunn is too young to have seen Knight Rider?
Or maybe he was on the 'street' where comics were more available...?

Anyway I always get a kick out of no one getting Spike's cultural references (except Andrew...he he he).

I was actually surprised that Wesley was aware of smurfs(!) but then it was just too perfect of a joke to bypass ....

I picked up on that also. When I heard it I began trying to remember which ep of Buffy Anya (I think it was her) had spoken that line. Very funny.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

I laughed out loud so hard when Eve, Harm, and Lorne started screaming. One of my favorite parts of the 'sode.

I thought that too! BUT, on further examination, only his hand is clean, the white on his cuff of the shirt beneither the jacket, is red with the blood still. so, it was a stain resistant suit.. but the shirt was of the normal variety
