What Season 3 of Angel

The third season opens with Angel back in Los Angeles after months in a monastery, still haunted by Buffy's death. There he will have to face James, a vampire who wants revenge on him. At the same time, Darla arrives in the city with a new life growing inside her, and Angel is forced to take on a fatherly role he never imagined. To face it, he relies on the Angel Investigations team, made up of Cordelia, Gunn and Fred, who help him protect his son while his past continues to haunt him. Cordelia's visions, increasingly painful, add another threat to the group.
