Lineage

While the group investigates bio-mechanical android assassins, Roger Wyndam Pryce, Wesley's estranged father, arrives suddenly in Los Angeles to evaluate Wesley for possible reacceptance to the Watcher's Council. As Wesley struggles with his father's demeaning and overly-critical attitude, the androids attack Wolfram & Hart. During the attack, Mr. Pryce attacks Wesley and steals a dangerous mystical artifact that he tries to use to steal Angel's free will. Wesley confronts his father and initially tries to reason with him. However, when Mr. Pryce tries to use Fred as a shield, Wesley kills him without hesitation. In the meantime, Spike begins to question the mysterious Eve's plans for the vampires without souls.
