It'll all come out in the wash.

Angel and Connor return to the hotel with the woman. Like them, everyone becomes worshipful as soon as they see her. They have Cordelia, but she is comatose.

At her bidding, they set out on a mission to destroy all evil creatures. Whilst fighting a group of vampires in a bowling alley, the woman is cut, but she follows the pursuit of the vamps into a group of people outside. They all immediately bow down to her, bar one who attacks, but is viciously dealt with by Angel.

Back at the hotel, Fred desperately tries to wash the blood from the shirt the woman was wearing during the attack. She offers a replacement, but when she looks at the woman's face, it has become a horrific, maggot-ridden visage.

Fred finds the earlier attacker, who tells her he must destroy the woman. She tries to do so at the hotel, but is thwarted by the rest of Angel Investigations. Fleeing, her isolation is brought home to her when the woman, now named Jasmine, appears on a TV. All around Fred, people bow their heads in wonder.

Quiz - ten quick questions.

Trivia: The title of this episode is taken from REM's 1991 hit of the same name, from their album Out of Time.

Jasmine is played by Gina Torres, who obviously made a very good impression on Joss Whedon while playing Zoe Warren in his space series Firefly. As well as that role, she's got a very long list of cult credits to her name, including the recurring roles of Nebula in Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Anna Espinosa in Alias. Her regal bearing may have been developed by playing Queen Cleopatra in Xena: Warrior Princess.

If that isn't enough, she's Lawrence Fishburn's wife, and appeared with him in The Matrix Reloaded.

Jasmine's walkabout turned into something out of A Hard Day's Night, according to Lorne. Released in 1964, this was the first Beatles film, and featured scenes of the Fab Four being mobbed by hordes of screaming girls.
