Didn't he call Hamilton by another name?
He calls him by his first name, "Marcus."
Joyce: You don't think it's too obvious? I think I look like I have a cat on my head. Buffy: But a very well groomed cat. Joyce: Well that's a comfort.

Oh, I didn't remember he had a first name, he's always "very tall evil person" in my head.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Band leader on Space Ghost Coast to Coast, and "best friend" to Brak on The Brak Show.
Ah, that guy! I've seen a couple of Space Ghosts, including the Shatner ep. Oh! And I saw him once on the Brak Show, when Brak's dad developed superpowers after being bitten by a radioactive camel. And bat, but especially a camel. Lord, that was a funny ep.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I kind of had the (Plei? someone's) reaction of "Oh, so my sense of something being horribly wrong and asspully was SUPPOSED to be like that" and finding it hard to enjoy the last 10 minutes of goodness in light of the prior 30 minutes of irritation.
I believe that was I. Though to be confused with Plei is an honor. At least boardwise. If you confused us in person, I'd have something more to say.
So can someone explain Lindsey's plan? Come on, make it make sense for me. Cause it's been pointed out that using Angel as his sacrifice to get into Black Thorn isn't savvy cause he's always wanted to kill Angel; he's not giving up anything. They're already enemies. Plus, killing Angel would piss off the Senior Partners such that he'd most likely be dead before he made it to Black Thorn.

I can't even.
I want to know the story of how Drogyn and Hamilton know each other. I'm hoping that it is a centuries-old struggle of grief and pain, detailing Marcus' descent into evil and not that they were both at the same craps table in Vegas a few years ago and realized that they had similar taste in apocalypses.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Polter, if we use the patent connection Angel and Lindsey had in "Dead End" as the model for their relationship, who else is he gonna kill?
Angel's all he has.

Me too. That they know each other is very interesting, and there's not enough time to follow up on it. Goddammit.

Um...he brings Darla back in a box so he can kill her.

It's not Darla he wants to screw.

I think the reason Angel needed to kill one of his people to get into the Black Thorn because he was so widely known as a good guy. Killing Fred is Angel's initial proof that he's switched sides and is no longer a champion for good.
My working theory about Lindsey is that he was trying to prove himself more worthy of the SP's notice than Angel, and killing Angel was the best way he could think of to do that. (I'm also assuming that Lindsey had a bunch of other, better plans, which he discarded in favor of the plan that included killing Angel.)
I'm hoping that it is a centuries-old struggle of grief and pain, detailing Marcus' descent into evil and not that they were both at the same craps table in Vegas a few years ago and realized that they had similar taste in apocalypses.
Can't it be both?
