I was surprisingly entertained by this episode. Grading purely on a “The Strain” scale, I gave it an A-.
With regard to Angel, we know putting an end to the vampires is *very* personal to him, but the show has done nothing to build off of, or, expand upon that since that one opening scene in the episode where he was introduced. I think the emotion we were supposed to feel when Angel made his decision to stay with Gus would have been much more powerful if we’d been given at least occasional reminders – besides his limp – about what this means to him.
