- A gangbanger named Marquez runs into several very ugly demons on the street and they chase after him. Angel and Wesley show up and Angel beheads a couple of the demons and rescues the guy who turns out to be a gangbanger needed to testify in court. In another part of LA, Faith, the evil rogue vampire slayer, gets off a bus, alone. In the shadows a guy is watching for anyone getting off the bus alone and spots her. He accosts Faith and Faith cuts loose her rage on him beating him senseless, then robs a guy of his coat, money, and keys.
We switch back in time to Borsa, Romania, 1898, to a scene involving the previous life of Angel as Angelus the evil vampire and his girlfriends and vampire Darla. Darla leads a blindfolded Angelus to a young gypsy woman bound on the floor. With Darla watching, Angelus morphs and bites her inner thigh.
We switch back to the present to Angel who is attempting to talk some sense into gang member he saved from the streets. Angel is trying to get Marquez to testify against a criminal.
At a club, Faith dances the night away with every guy within reach. A fight breaks out when Faith attaches herself to another girl's boyfriend. She continues her dancing, gleefully acting like she is in her own world, while fighting and knocking down anyone that tries to stop her or get in her way.
In a courtroom, Wolfram and Hart is just about to close a case, but Angel shows up at the last minute with the Marquez who is to testify against the demonic law firm's client. The Wolfram and Hart Lawyers begin discussing their problem with Angel. Then it appears one of them has a solution. Wolfram and Hart lawyers confront Faith about taking care of their problem, Angel.
Back in 1898, Darla returns to the house to find her Angelus is no longer the demon she made him. He's been cursed with a soul, and she is ready to kill him because of it. Angel goes out into the streets, hungry.
Faith works out a deal with the lawyers, but suddenly beats one of them that dares to challenge her. While they're waiting for lunch with a prospective client, Faith shows up behind Angel and tries to shoot him with a crossbow. Angel catches the bolt in mid air, inches away from hitting him, and Faith runs off.
After checking with Giles in Sunnydale, Angel plans to go after Faith while Wesley and Cordelia are to lay low. That night, he checks out weapons, but decides he will not use weapons. Faith's suddenly shows up in the office. She gives him the opportunity to shoot her, but the bullet is a blank. After she explains her plans to destroy him, she shoots him with a real bullet and leaves. The bullet only causes some pain. Angel then poses as a lawyer at Wolfram and Hart and sneaks into the office of Lindsey McDonald, asking about Faith. Lindsey denies any knowledge of Faith and informs Angel that their high-tech security system has Angel cornered and recorded. Angel leaves peacefully, but promises Lindsey they will meet up again.
Cordelia tries to get into her apartment, but Phantom Dennis the ghost in her apartment, won't let her. Cordelia doesn't know Faith is in the apartment. They encounter Faith in the apartment who refuses to listen to reason and knocks-out Cordelia. Wesley punches Faith in return, and Faith kicks Wesley across the room. In the past, Angel and his new soul try to find a meal on the streets. He knocks out several guys and then attacks the woman they were with.
Angel finds Cordelia coming too in her apartment, and Wesley gone. Across town in a warehouse, Faith has Wesley tied up and is torturing him. Angel and Cordelia try to locate Faith before it's too late and come to the conclusion she is at the place owned by the guy she beat up at the bus stop. Angel then finds the place and charges into the apartment, stopping Faith from continuing her torture on Wesley. We switch back to 1898 and see that the woman Angel attacked is alive and surprised that Angel left her alive. Angel goes wondering through the streets hoping to find something to live on. In the present after interrupting the torture session, Angel mentions to Faith that he knows what she wants. A fight breaks out between Angel and Faith. With Faith shouting invincibility taunts and death threats at Angel they battle on. The two go flying out of a window and land on the streets, Faith still shouting about her invincibility and Angel's eminent death, while continuing to beat Angel. At a critical juncture of the fight Angel says, "I know what you want" . This time Angel confidently adds, "and I'm not gonna do it!"
The rain starts to pour down outside as Wesley breaks loose and goes downstairs armed with a knife. Faith suddenly changes from invincible to crying, and shouts to Angel that she is evil. She begins to beg "Please just do it!" Finally, she begs Angel, please, just kill me! With Wesley watching on, Angel takes Faith into his arms and hugs her as she continues crying. Then Wesley drops the knife.
