Summary

Angel and Cordelia see Doyle losing his mind when his estranged wife, Harrie, comes to town asking for a divorce so she can marry another man. With the wedding a few days away, Angel agrees to follow her seemingly affable finance, Richard, to learn more about this man before Doyle gives his blessing to their union. Richard turns out to be an Ano-Movic demon who likes Doyle so much he invites him to his bachelor party where one traditional Ano-Movic ritual involves eating Doyle’s brain.


Expanded

Doyle tries to get Angel to go out, but Angel would rather read a book. Cordelia's rich date gets the third degree from Doyle and Angel, before she drags him out the door. After finding a picture of Buffy in the book Angel was reading, Doyle gets a vision of a guy who is going to be eaten by vampires, and they go off to save him. Cordelia's date turns out to be an incredible bore, but Angel and Doyle's evening is much more eventful as they kill off the vampires and rescue the guy from being killed.


One of the surviving vampires follows Doyle back to the office just as Cordelia's date is dropping her off early. The vampire attacks her, and after Cordelia's date runs off in fear, Doyle saves her and kills the vampire. Cordelia comes to the conclusion that Doyle might have some potential and goes to invite him out, but she doesn't get the chance to completely ask. Doyle's estranged wife, Harry returns, wanting a divorce so she can marry another man. Doyle tells Angel that after they got married, Doyle found out about the demon genes he inherited from his father.


At Doyle's request, Angel follows Harry's future husband and spots him make an exchange for money and then enters a restaurant. At the restaurant, Angel spies Richard as he turns into a demon then heads back to Harry. Angel breaks through a window and attacks Richard, before Harry stops him. She knows about and is okay with Richard being a demon, she even studies demons now. Richard's whole family is from the same demon clan, a nice clan that owns a chain of restaurants. Harry reveals that she freaked at first about Doyle being a demon, but then she accepted it, and it was him that had the problem with it.


Doyle finally convinces himself that it wasn't the demon that broke him apart from Harry and signs the divorce papers. Richard invites Doyle to his bachelor party, while Harry invites Cordelia to her wedding shower. Richard's family works on the party's events, which includes the eating of the first husband's brains. Doyle brings Angel along to the bachelor party. Richard asks about Doyle's marriage to Harry while at the wedding shower, Harry tells Cordelia about what a great guy Doyle used to be. She reveals that Doyle was a third grade teacher, and worked at a soup kitchen. After following some of Richard's family upstairs and stumbling upon one of their demonic rituals, Angel calls Cordelia to see if Harry can translate some of their chants.


Not expecting his appearance, and not needing any witnesses, Richard's family members beat up Angel and throw him out of a window. After Doyle gives his blessing to the wedding, he is locked into a box with just his head exposed. They numb his head and then inform him that they're going to cut it open and Richard will eat his brains to ensure that his marriage to Harry will be successful. Harry deciphers the text and she and Cordelia leave to save Doyle. Angel wakes up and then interrupts the demon family before they can harm Doyle. A huge fight breaks out, and Doyle finally turns to his demon for strength. Harry stops the fight and then Richard presents her with a choice. If the ritual isn't preformed, they can't get married, and she hands over her ring and leaves.


At the office, Doyle mopes around and Cordelia attempts to cheer him up. It helps a little, and then Doyle gets a vision, and this time, he sees Buffy.
