What can I say, I loved this ep! Great intro where new viewers are given a history of Angel's past and how he came to be in Los Angeles, as told by Doyle (a half human-demon sent by the powers that be to show Angel the souls that need saving). There is a very exciting Batman/superhero feel to the program, with Angel's mission being to help humankind and make amends for his previous evils as Angelus.

We meet Cordelia at an L.A. party for wanna-be actors showing that she's the same old Cordy be it down and out for now...After Angel saves her life from the baddie of the ep, a vampire called Russell Winters who is protected from prosecution by a law firm called Wolfram Hart(I'd say very 90's but it's the 2000's) she 'reciprocates' as only she can by offering her investigative services for a fee of course.

Loved the dark imagery, original cinematography and dark humour present throughout the story. What I loved most about this episode is that we see a lot more of Angel doing vampire type things like leaping off a balcony with Cordy to save her. Looking forward to more....
