Information has come out for Episode 17. Originally I was unsure if it was 16 or 17, based on the fact that info for 15 came out as being for episode 16. But on further review, I think that this is more than likely for Episode 17. Which means we have little or no information at the moment on what happens in that episode.

Angel: Episode 17

Three brief scenes.

The first scene has a young boy named Zach, and Lindsey doing homework together. A woman, Trish (who appears to be his wife), comes in and asks him to change a light bulb that has burned out. Lindsey is apprehensive about doing this, as he will need to go to the basement to get a new bulb. He hesitates as the basement door...

Later, Angel (and someone else) are visiting the suburban home. The door is answered by Trish. Angel asks if Lindsey is there, and she invites them in. As they enter, Lindsey comes into view, talking about Zach's missing hockey stick.

Angel is talking to the gang, about how they have been battling evil. They've been fighting it, but on the wrong side. As long as their with Wolfram and Hart, they're not not on the right side. Exactly what Wolfram and Hart wanted. The realization of this sinks in.

Meanwhile, in an exact mirror to the first scene, Gunn has taken the place of Lindsey. He is wearing a necklace, which I presume is making it appear to Zach and Trish that he is Lindsey. The scene ends as Trish is asking Gunn/Lindsey to change the lightbulb

And that for the moment, is all that we've got. It doesn't help much that what we've got is confusing to say the least. I don't know how Lindsey fits into this formula, unless it wasn't the real Lindsey we were seeing earlier this season. The entire 'happy family' scenario reminds me a lot of Connor, and right now with the misdirection that I've seen so far this season, it's hard to take anything I'm seeing as 100 percent fact. I would hazard a guess that the 'happy family' that Lindsey is now a part of, is indeed paralleling Connor's story, and we're going to discover that this isn't the first time that Wolfram and Hart or The Powers That Be have done this.

Unfortunately, there just isn't enough to make any solid judgment. I would have assumed that we would have rolled right into the second part of Fred's story, and I really can't imagine it would be resolved this quickly. Yet this could have everything to do with that, and it's just not evident in the information that I have. I do think the one clear part, is that Angel and company are realizing that they are in the wrong place, and working for the wrong people.

But of course, as viewers, we've known that for a long time.
