What happens to angel during season 5?

Answer 1

Basically he's in charge of the very company that he spent so many years trying to defeat. Yes, you guessed it, Wolfram & Hart.

In this series the gang has inverted to a different side of the table and are no longer working under the influence of the Powers that Be and now answer to the Senior Partners (whoever they are)... But instead of using the company to do bad things, they try to turn the company around in the better direction.

It also sees the return of Spike who was last seen in Season 7 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer when he sacrificed himself in the Hellmouth of Sunnydale and saved the world. It's quite funny to watch the conflict between the two champions, Angel being jealous that Spike not only has a soul, but stopped the apocolypse as well.

It also stages an extremely emotional final few episodes which showed no dry eyes in my house, haha, but many enraged attitudes at the conclusion of the series.

There has been a lot of argument on whether Joss Whedon could have ended the show better, but then a comic came out called, Angel season 6: After the fall.

I havn't read this but I want to as I was extremely angry at how the show ended. haha.
