*** While we're on that subject, how about the note that Angel signed for all of them? Wolfram and Hart contracts extend beyond the grave. Really, think about that. Signing on with Wolfram and Hart is LITERALLY selling your soul to the Wolf, Ram, and Hart, and these contracts have never even been suggested to be breakable. By signing on with Wolfram and hart, you will be in their service for ETERNITY, either as their employee, or whatever hell they choose to do with you if you refuse to work for them. Angel had something that he felt was worth signing over for, but signing all his FRIENDS into eternal servitude for the Wolf, Ram, and Hart? Brilliant, Angel. Just f'ing brilliant.
**** Actually, its Fridge Brilliance. If Angel signs for his friends like that then there is a strong possibility they can use that later on to get ''out'' of the contracts -- in both real-world contract law and most fictional stories involving deals with the devil, there has to be an intent on your part to form a contract for a contract to actually exist. If somebody else signs for you without your power-of-attorney, your consent, or your knowledge, then ''they'' eat the costs and not you. So Angel is trying to take the bullet to spare his friends the consequences, which is entirely in-character for him. Unfortunately for Angel all of his friends decided on their own after the W&H facilities tour that they liked the deal and wanted to stick with it, so this didn't work.
***** Along that line, given that "Hell Bound" shows that even a sincerely repentant and redeeming vampire with a soul can still feel themselves inevitably damned to Hell for their prior crimes, its not like Angel loses much by binding himself to W&H's service for eternity in the afterlife. As far as Angel knows, he's ''already'' booked for a hot date downstairs -- might as well at least have that date with a dance partner he knows instead of some stranger.
* "The Girl In Question". Where to start? It makes everything about Buffy again, even though we only ever see a woman in a blonde wig. There are many lazy, horrid attempts at meta-humour. Fred's parents were apparently never told about their daughter's death, which makes the gang look like [[Jerkass|Jerkasses]]. And they turned Angelus into a [[Butt Monkey]]. For the love of God, why?
** Shh, that episode ''[[Fanon Discontinuity|never happened]]''.
