Wesley's Mistake

[itsnotmymind]

I'm rewatching the last several episodes of angel Season 3 - Couplet onward, where it gets GOOD. It really strikes me that Wesley's big mistake is not taking Connor - it's talking to Holtz. He was very right to be concerned about the prophecy, and taking Connor away from Angel makes sense given what he knew. If he hadn't spoken to Holtz, he might have been able to get Connor somewhere safe.

I miss the show Angel. I need to do a rewatch.

There were some good storylines on that show. It wasn't as consistently good as Buffy, but when it was good it was GOOD.

I have always agreed with this, 100%. If he hadn't talked to Holtz, he could have taken Connor somewhere safe, and then CONTACTED Angel and explained and YES, Angel still probably would have been majorly pissed, but they would have been able to figure it out and Angel wouldn't have lost Connor and it would have been a thing they could have gotten past. :(

Yep - and he should have worked with Fred and Gunn. I understand not wanting to tell Angel, because anything Angel knows Angelus knows, but he had no good reason for not telling Fred and Gunn.
