Doh! And I don't have it taped, either, or I'd gladly send it your way. I wanted to tape it, but then I realized I could either tape Angel or KH, and I wanted Angel for posterity. I'm sure they'll do a recap next Wednesday, and believe me, you probably won't be any more lost than those of us who did watch it! *g*
I am finding it very difficult to feel sorry for Gunn.
I can, because I don't think it's really that cut and dried. In signing that piece of paper, Gunn was continuing what they all had been since the beginning of the season - when the group got murderers acquitted so they could help out other people. They've all been making the gamble all season long. They've all walked that line. Angel more than anyone else.
And like Gunn said, they were all getting something out of being at W&H. In Gunn's case, it all flows back to those feelings of inferiority he has because of his racial and socieo-economic background. From the condescension he's felt (rightly or not) from Angel, Cordy, and Wes ever since he joined the crew.
I'm not saying I like it or anything - but I do feel sympathy for him. I've been sympathetic to Gunn in his relationship with Wesley pretty much ever since the close of "That Old Gang of Mine" in S3.
Not to mention, Angel getting tossed out a windowReminded me of Angel getting tossed off the roof by the Beast in S4

I do agree though, that Gunn's initial decision to sign that paper was no more damaging than any one decision any of them have made
