The Darkness

 

Episode 2.13

 

Teaser

 

Acting on information provided by Da Silva, Connor finds the Wolfram and Hart medical complex where his father is. He finds someone else there as well: Buffy Summers.

 

Act One

 

Connor and Buffy discuss rescuing Angel, but are soon driven into hiding by the arrival of a Wolfram and Hart doctor. They overhear him explain the Senior Partners' latest efforts to reacquaint Angel with his dark side with Jason Guelph. Buffy and Connor return to L.A. to firm up their rescue plans. With the help of Gunn, they get the security blueprints of the medical complex, which include the magical safeguards on the building. Back at the Slayer Council office, Buffy gives Connor a mysterious medallion she was told to give him in a Slayer dream.

 

In a downtown L.A. hospital, Aiden's mother arrives to find her son still unconscious from his injuries, and Kristin at his bedside. She isn't particularly friendly to Kristin.

 

Act Two

 

Faith arrives at the Slayer Council office, angry about being left out of the planning of Angel's rescue. She and Buffy argue about Faith's dicey, uncommunicative relationship with the rest of the Slayer Council and the Council's reaction to it. Faith storms off.

 

Connor returns to his new home in Angel's old basement apartment to get ready for the rescue operation. He finds himself strangely drawn to the medallion Buffy gave him and puts it on. A power within the medallion knocks him out. When he awakes, he is Steven Holtz again, and believes he is in Quortoth. But he is still in L.A. The witch Vaughne comes calling to do the vampire de-invite spell Connor requested. Steven sees her as a demon and attacks her. Vaughne uses magic to get away and calls the Council office. Buffy heads out in search of Connor and gets the same reception from Steven that Vaughne did.

 

Steven goes in search of his father and finds him trapped by a demon.

 

Meanwhile, Kristin is left behind when Aiden goes into convulsions and has to be rushed into emergency surgery.

 

Act Three

 

"Holtz" is actually a homeless man, but the demon threatening him is very real. Steven kills it. The man attempts to run away, but falls and passes out. Steven takes "Holtz" to a cave where they can hide from the "demon" that was in their usual home. Then Steven heads over to the t'Vok camp, where he has befriended a young demon girl. In actuality, Connor ends up at a random apartment complex talking to a girl he doesn't know. When he returns to the cave, he has an entire conversation with "Holtz" while the homeless man he has mistaken him for lies unconscious. Holtz's harsh words about Steven's demonic origins send a distraught Steven back to the t'Vok camp again.

 

Buffy locates Faith, and together they go in search of Connor. They find the demon he killed. It has been skinned. The street boys, who witnessed this, tell the Slayers what they overhead Connor say, giving them a clue where to search next.

 

Mrs. Walsh confronts Kristin in the hospital waiting room, demanding to know how Aiden got hurt. She is not at all comfortable with Kristin's honest reply.

 

Act Four

 

Drusilla appears in Angel's room and kills the demon that has been causing him to dream about his past.

 

Buffy and Faith find the homeless man in the basement of an electrical station. He gives them further clues about Connor's whereabouts. The Slayers go to a park. While they wait for Connor to appear, they hash out their issues with each other. Then they see Connor. Buffy calls the scholars to get more information about the medallion; Faith runs after him. The Slayers find Connor behind the apartment complex where he talked to the human girl. He is holding her at knife point, believing her to be his demon friend from Quortoth.

 

In Connor's delusion, it is Holtz that finds him, and Holtz that attempts to talk him down from killing his hostage. Reeling from the mixed messages Holtz is giving him, Steven tries to kill the girl. Buffy and Faith stop him, then remove the medallion. Connor is himself again.

 

Aiden pulls through surgery, much to the relief of Kristin, and then Faith, who arrives at the hospital.

 

Connor goes to visit Angel in the Wolfram and Hart medical complex. Although the security personnel there are not aware of Connor's presence, they are aware of Drusilla's visit, and go on the alert.
