I have this idea that Angel goes back to Sunnydale - back to the Master's Lair - because he thinks his son should have something that belonged to his mother. He goes back to the Master's Lair (which is now deserted) and finds her chambers or whatever, picking out some thing to bring back. Anyway, he stays the night in there and does some Darla brooding. As he's brooding her remembers something she said once, probably during the episode "Angel" while they were in his apartment... some of the conversation we didn't see. "Somebody once said that in this place, if you wish for something hard enough, long enough, you'll get your wish. Do you think it's true? Do you think if I wished hard enough or long enough you'd lose your soul?" Something to that effect. And he does. He wishes she'd come back, because not only does their son need a mother - his own biological mother - but Angel knows deep inside he needs Darla too. And apparently he wishes hard enough, and the need is strong enough, and she returns. Only she's soulless now and wants nothing to do w/ her child - wants it dead for putting that "filthy soul" inside her, for making her feel, for making her weak. Angel & Co. would be all mad at Angel for bringing Darla back, and he'd try to prove to them that he could make it right, that he could curse her and it'd all be okay. It could actually we a very good and complex story line. lol I say we all write to Tim Minear w/ our ideas of how to bring Darla back, show him all his options, maybe he'll think of more lol And then we can have our girl back
