Summary

This is probably the most important episode regarding Faith pre-mayor. It is pivotal to the breaking-down of the relationship between Faith and Buffy, not to mention how it completely destroys Faith's trust in anyone. Revelations is also the episode when everyone else finds out Angel is back.

Further on in, an astounded Xander sees Angel and runs back to tell Giles. But not all is as it seems.
