  • Spike letting slip things about himself that Angel kept from the gang, like saving the world and getting a soul. Angel trying to play them off as not-a-big-deal.
  • Harmony's reactions to Spike (when he first shows up, when she offers to be there if he wants to talk, when she slams about saying "leopards can't change their stripes")
  • Spike warming up to the idea of haunting Angel and driving him crazy.
  • Angel's tirade about it not being fair that Spike spent 3 weeks moaning in a basement, and then was fine; his frustrated grunt when Spike dissappears.
  • Spike overhearing as the A-team discuss the possibility of sending him off to the great beyond.
  • Spike's midnight visit to Angel & last words at the cemetary.
  • Spike doublecrossing Hainsley and helping Angel to defeat him.
  • Spike, terrified of slipping into hell, turning to Fred for help.
