Did we mention Zorak is a giant mantis?

Angel 5: Is That It? Am I Done?
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Zorak's in Space Ghost and was also a character in The Brak Show. He's a mantis. Kind of what Shake'll be when he mellows.
Been watching ATHF since it's on every freaking night. Shake, oh Shake, how I love the character Shake.
Anyway, meant to post about this claim of Angel's that they're not really going to do some damage at the end of the day. Just one bright shining moment. Now, if ME were true to the spirit of Angel as I see it, that'll be what happens-- world keeps turning, all you've got is yourself and your past. But I rather suspect this action, whatever it is, will have a pretty disastrous effect on the SPs, rather like Buffy's apocalypse.

Um.
Maybe we'll get some kind of background/explanation of why Frogyn looked so unrecognizably awful.
I think he lied, thereby giving up his eternal youth.

What is even happening?
He was beaten and tortured, and had his hair pulled out. That's why he didn't look like Frogyn.

Sounds good. He was in on it with Angel and his answer to "Are you willing to die for this?" was "Yes." That's commitment.

Did the spa treatment include the greying of his hair?

Yes, I do think he's in on it with Angel. His answer about the pleasures of living in a cave seemed to hint that he'd had enough of the immortal life. If his death could atone for his failure to keep Illyria entombed, then so much the better.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Second, he killed a good guy! A complete innocent! (Okay, possibly not innocent, but not deserving of death at the moment.) Um, repercussions? Or at least recognition? The hell?
Angel killing Drogyn does bother me, and I hope they address it somehow, but are we sure Drogyn is absolutely a good person, a complete innnocent?
In the introduction to the character, he sends guards out to kill Spike and Angel and he threatens to kill Spike for asking him questions. In this ep they established that he knows Hamilton somehow and he admitted to torturing some one for information and made it clear he was good at the torture. (I forget the exact line, but Gunn asked him how he knew the guy was telling the truth, and Drogyn said something about how people he tortured always told the truth)

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)
Actually grommit, your fanwank is totally believable to me.

Oooh, I like the Drogyn fanwank. He's got his own stuff to atone for, ie, whatever he got up to with Hamilton. Didn't he call Hamilton by another name? Now I'm flashing to "Highlander" and Methos as one of the Four Horsemen, and we don't know how old Drogyn is or Hamilton's background and all.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

A pox on all their houses. At least we still have fanfic.
