Subject: SPIKEFEED SPOILERS: Hole in the World, SHORT
ADVERTISEMENT
First, I love Fred's parents. <VBG> Especially her dad.
The whole Angel/Spike dynamic is just a hoot.
THey start out with Angel complaining because Spike ran a sword
through him to kill one of the bugs Fred and Wes and the rest were
fighting. Spike says, "I saved you from being bug food, so stop
whinging."
Then there's the big shouting match in Angel's office. Lots of
passion, lots of getting right up in each other's face, until Wesley
interrupts them. Angel looks a little embarrassed when Spike tells
Wes that they were arguing about whether cavemen or astronauts would
win a fight.
When Angel tells Spike to leave, Spike says, "What, you mean you want
us to annoy other people?" And when Angel tells Spike he can go
wherever he wants, Spike perks up. "=Anywhere=?" he says, with a
significant look at Angel. He's obviously thinking of Buffy, but he
doesn't mention her name. Neither does Angel, who looks right into
his eyes and says, "Anywhere."
"Anywhere but here," Spike says as the scene changes.
All the guys are discussing how to help Fred. Angel tells them what
the doctor says--that Fred's organs are cooking, and will liquefy
within a day.
Spike's face hardens. "Not this girl," he says, eyes narrowed and
jaw set. "Not this day."
Finally, there's a mention of Cordelia! Angel and Spike are on the
jet, and Angel says, "I can't lose her."
"You won't." Spike is grimly determined.
Angel looks out the window. "I lost Cordy," he says, and it's
obvious that it hurts. Spike can't say anything to that, so he
doesn't.
In the Cotswolds, Angel and Spike are looking for the doorway to the
Deeper Well. Angel spots it. "Right there," he says, "That's our
doorway to the Deeper Well."
"Or Christmasland," Spike says. Angel gives him a LOOK, and Spike
rolls his eyes. "Don't you ever have ANY fun?" he says. At that
moment, two demons come barrelling out the doorway (which looks like
a hollow tree). "Stragegy?" Spike asks Angel.
"Just hold my hand." Spike gives him the fisheye, but does it. As
soon as he clasps Angel's hand, he grins. "St. Petersburg," he says.
"Thought you'd forgotten," Angel says, and as he drops Spike's hand,
a very thin wire uncoils, and they pull it taut, decapitating the two
demons. THey take up the demons' weapons and fight the bunch that
comes streaming out of the doorway. Once they defeat the demons, the
guardian comes out. Spike starts to ask questions, but the man tells
him that he'll kill him if he asks anything.
Inside the Well, the guardian, whom Angel knows, the guys find out
about Illyria's sarcophagus going missing. Spike makes several
comments which are phrased as questions, but every time the guardian
looks around, Spike says, "That was a statement!" FInally they get
to the bridge across the Well, which goes clear through the earth.
The guardian is giving out bits of information at a time, and Spike
has had enough. He asks what the heck is going on. The guardian
turns, his eyes blazing, and Spike steps forward. "What's your
favorite color?" he asks, his tone daring the guardian to interrupt.
"What's your favorite song? Who's the right wing for Manchester
United?" By now, he's right up in the guardian's face. "If you're
gonna kill me, try it. I don't have time for your stupid quirks."
And the Guardian backs down.
The Guardian explains that there's a way to cure Fred, but it
requires a Champion. "You've got two of them right here," Angel
says, with absolutely no hesitation. The Guardian tells them that
saving Fred will mean thousands of people dying; he goes away to
prepare the spell, but leaves the decision up to Angel and Spike.
They're both horrified at the thought. But finally, Angel says,
"Screw the world."
But of course, he's too late. Fred dies in Wes' arms, and Illyria
rises. She looks at the new body. "This will do," she says. And
credits roll.
