Book ,'Serenity'
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.
Did Connor expect to run into Angel after punching a hole through dimensions?
I think he knew where he was landing. That's my handwave, anyway, and I'm sticking to it. I don't even want to think about how he would know that they would be there upon his arrival.
On the other hand, Angel just "knew" Connor. Maybe Connor "knew" Angel as well.
Did Connor expect to run into Angel after punching a hole through dimensions?
Yes. He wasn't trying to escape Quortoth, and just coincidentally wound up in the Hyperion. He was trying to get to Angel, period. That's what he used the sluks to do.
The Price:
Fred: "We have to flee. It brings pain. Such pain."
Lorne: "It? What happened to we? What's with the pronoun switcheroo?"
Angel: "What are you fleeing from?"
Fred: "The bringer of torment. Agony. Death. The destroyer."
Cordy: "Oh, that is just not the name you wanna hear."
Angel: "Why is this destroyer after you?"
Fred: "It's not. It's coming after you, Angel."
Benediction:
Connor: "The cracks were there already. I just made the sluks show me, that's all."
Holtz: "Frightened rats, forced to flee to daylight. My boy's smart."
Connor: "You shouldn't have followed me here."
Holtz: "How could I not?"
Connor: "I would have come back to you, after I killed him.
I think Cordy's demonization was when Jasmine began to get its hooks into her (with a free-willed choice on her part to become a demon hybrid thanks to Skip's It's a Wonderful Life mindgames), but she was still essentially in the driver's seat with gradually increasing outside influence until the end of "Tomorrow." What came back in early Season 4 was Jasmine wearing a Cordy suit.
I thought Jasmine didn't fully have her hooks in Cordy until Lorne tried to get her memory back for her (don't remember the name of the episode)?

Slouching Toward Bethlehem, IIRC.

Aha, thanks. My DVDs are packed in boxes.
And apropos-ishly, an interesting LJ post about Cordelia and characterization problems in season 3.
I'm on S4 now. It turns out I'm more confused rather than less. Still, I liked my silly dream better because it let me handwave St. Cordy, and that means a lot.
Also, that's a nice article Dana. Thanks for sharing.
Anyone ever wonder why Joyce kept her married name?
I know lots of people who do. I don't think it was ever mentioned in canon, but I would say Joyce wanted to keep the same name as her child(ren).
