i mean, dear god, could you imagine a season five of angel if they wrote it like it was the last season?
angel, knowing he's made this choice to take over W&H and having to live with it but trying to make the best of it.
angel, working with lorne to find where the cameras in w&h are, finding the weak spots in the building, letting the team know why he took over and removed connor from their memories, the team realising they have huge gaps or weird memories- why did darla die? why was the team so angry with wesley? what happened to holtz?
angel using gunn's leadership abilities not just the fake smarts- gunn knows how to lead a team, to rally the troops, he's a natural born leader and shouldn't have been shoved aside!
spike being used, too, while he's a 'ghost' he can sneak around the office, do the cameras know he's there? the sound recorders? spike and angel getting into a fight, angel saying spike isn't a cop just because he grew a soul and his personality is dull he's not electric or exciting- spike leaving in a huff then returning with Kate Lockley and Gru and Gwen, a team outside of w&h who can help them.
gah it's just... there were so many opportunities. season five could have been epic
