Season 3 Summery
Angel arrives back from a retreat in Sri Lanka to get himself sorted about the death of Buffy. He feels guilty that he doesn't feel worse than he would have if it happened a couple of years ago. Darla arrives back in LA with a little more than what was expected, she's pregnant even though it's impossible for vampires to get pregnant. Cordy's not best pleased with the fact that Angel kept the fact that Darla and him slept together and at first takes Darla's side of things. Wolfram & Hart also want to get their hands on Darla and the baby and an unknown demon named Sahjhan wants to get his hands on Darla and Angel and kill them before the baby is born. A human called Holtz is brought to the twenty first century by Sahjhan to help him. Holtz was the vampire killer from the 1800's who sought to kill Darla and Angelus for killing his entire family, it was revenge for him. Darla finds the baby's human and has a soul, and it's soul is influencing her thoughts. But she feared once the baby is born she won't love it anymore. The time of birth drew near and Darla could feel the baby dying. She decided to sacrifice her own life to save the child's, she killed herself leaving an unborn baby. Holtz then had a chance to kill both the child and Angel but he didn't do it, he let Angel go. The child being the child of two vampires was a prized possession and almost everyone was after it. Angel does his best to protect it and gives it a proper Irish name, Conner. Meanwhile Cordy's visions get ever more painful and one knocks her into a coma type state. Here she meets Skip, a demon guide, who tells her she wasn't meant to get the visions, Angel was. Cordy goes to an alternate universe where Angel gets the visions but sees that Angel couldn't even stand their power as he was insane from them. Skip gives her an alternative, to become half demon to bear the force of the visions, and so Cordy is now half demon. While Wesley is researching about Conner and he finds some prophecies where it translates the father will kill the son. Wesley goes out of his way and doesn't tell anyone, consorts with Holtz about this and makes a deal with him, to take Conner to Holtz and then never return to LA again. Plans go wrong and Wesley's throat gets cut and Conner is taken to another dimension by Holtz, a hell dimension. Angel completely devastated tries to kill Wesley when he's in hospital after he finds out that the demon Sahjhan planted those fake prophecies so that his own skin could be saved, as Angel's son Conner was going to kill Sahjhan in the future. Weeks later after Angel has tried countless times to open portal to Quor-toth, where Conner is, he gives up. The portal which they managed to open in the lobby of the hotel spews out a monster a a teenager, it's Conner. Conner makes a break for it and leaves Angel. They eventually find him, but Conner doesn't stay long, he goes and meets a very elderly Holtz. Conner and Angel do have some father/son chemistry which Conner doesn't want to believe as he was brought up to believe all vampires are evil because of what happened to Holtz's family. When it finally seems that Holtz is willing to give into age and let Angel have Conner he turns things around again. He makes Justine kill him, but making it look like a vampire, Angel did it. Conner finds Holtz dead and him and Justine exact their revenge on Angel, without Angel knowing. Also going on is Cordy and Angel are getting to grips with their feelings for one another. As Angel and Cordy are to meet, Cordy's interrupted by Skip coming to her and telling her that she is now a higher being, and to ascend to that higher level. The final test for Cordy was to see if she could give up her love for Angel for doing this and she did. Angel on the other hand was having other problems, Conner showed up in the spot where Cordy and Angel were to meet and started a fight. It ended with Angel on the other end of a tazer. Angel was then put in a metal and glass coffin by Justine and Conner and allowed to live forever, at the bottom of the sea.
