A very good episode it makes me really want to see how this turns out. The only strange thing to me is Holtz at the end is he now something more than human or was that just a really bad make-up job. I guess Connor is the big bad destroyer, but I am still skeptical.

Random, unconnected thoughts. (Strange, too)

Second episode in a row ending with a "surprise" guest and Conor/Stephen saying "HI, Dad." Way too subtle for me. (He says, tongue planted firmly in cheek)

This has been an interesting week for Evil Dead fans; first Bruce Campbell's cameo in that creepy-crawler movie and now an Ash wannabe.

The gang might want to look around the hotel for an odd wood board game that sounds like a beating heart

I think Holtz is still human - just 15 or so brutal years older - looks like life was tough in Quor-Toth

Did anyone else get the feeling that Angel was having one conversation and Stephen was having another?

Isn't anyone curious to know how Connor acquired his physical skills (fighting, leaping on top of a moving bus)? I'm wondering whether this is just due to intense training, or whether Connor got some special kind of mojo from living in Quor-Toth all those years.


By Mark Morgan-Angel/Reboot/Roving Mod (Mmorgan) on Wednesday, May 08, 2002 - 3:31 pm:

I figured he's part Vampire, hence part demon, and combined with Holtz's training is seriously a bad mutha.

Ahhh! Blade! I knew it!

Mark, he's completely human, but was borne to a vampire, and in a most unique way ta boot.


By Mark Morgan-Angel/Reboot/Roving Mod (Mmorgan) on Thursday, May 09, 2002 - 4:21 am:

I missed several episodes; did dialogue ever establish that he is completely human? I know it established he has a soul, but that's different (assuming Doyle had a soul, for example).


By TomM on Thursday, May 09, 2002 - 6:19 am:

I believe that there were reasons given why Angel and the gang were assured he was human (though I can't think them at the moment.) But in Loyalty, Wolfram and Hart had his blood tested six ways from Sunday and couldn't find anything but pure human blood.


By Ryan Whitney on Friday, May 10, 2002 - 1:35 pm:

Regarding whether or not Connor is human, I believe that Connor's full humanity was established during Darla's pregnancy. There was that episode (I can't remember the title) where Angel and his crew took the pregnant Darla to a hospital and tests revealed that the baby was human.

Yes, because Wesley had one of those ultrasound machines that can identify babies as human and not vampire...gah...

Why does Connor have an American accent? He didn't grow up in America, nor was he raised by Americans.


By Ryan Whitney on Thursday, July 18, 2002 - 11:20 pm:

Connor has Holtz's American accent, which raises the question, why did Holtz have an American accent? And I'm still looking for an explanation for Connor's superhuman abilities.


By Keith Alan Morgan (Kmorgan) on Monday, September 09, 2002 - 3:19 am:

So Connor is this big bad Destroyer that sends monsterous demons scurrying, but he has trouble fighting a group of common street thugs???
