Angel Cast

Cordelia throws her house-warming party. While Wesley tries to impress Cordelia’s girl friends, Angel sits brooding in the kitchen, with only Dennis the ghost for company. The following morning, Angel formally asks Wesley to join Angel Investigations. Cordelia then receives a vision of a man being burnt alive at an ice factory, and so Wesley and Angel set off to investigate. After finding the corpse they encounter a demon named Tay, who tells Angel that his mission is to stop ‘the bringer of chaos’. Angel sets Wesley and Cordelia into research mode, and then pays a visit to the dead man’s office; here he encounters a beautiful female demon who immediately attacks him and then escapes; coming to, Angel follows the demon to a museum; while en route, Cordelia calls Angel and tells him that four other bodies have been found, all badly burned. Angel poses as a guide to elude the museum’s security guards, and tracks the demon to a storage area. But as Angel confronts the female demon a portal appears before them, and another female demon falls through. Meanwhile, Wesley discovers that Tay is a member of a demon race that enslaves its females. Back at the museum, Tay and five other demons interrupt Angel and the female demon, who identifies herself as Jheira. Tay and the others manage to escape with the new arrival; taking her to a warehouse, they remove a ridge from between her shoulder blades, an act that makes her weak and docile. Jheira explains to Angel that the ridge is where a female’s physical and sexual power is located; Jheira has managed to control her own powers, but it has taken her several months. Elsewhere, Wesley and Cordelia track Tay down, overhearing that he knows where Jheira and the other escapees are. Wesley and Cordelia rejoin their vampire boss and together they trace the demons to a spa named Palm Ridge. Here there they find Jheira and three other escapees, and a man who has been helping them. Angel, Wesley and Cordelia warn Jheira that Tay is on his way; Wesley and Cordelia take the three women to a truck, planning to take them somewhere safe in the desert, while Angel remains to do battle with Tay and his henchmen. But Jheira slips away and commandeers the truck, driving off alone. Angel warns Tay he will kill him if he continues his pursuit of Jheira and the others. Some time later, Jheira pays Angel a visit, and tells him that the girls are now in a place of safety.
