Waiting in the Wings

Angel takes the gang out for an evening at the ballet, but becomes suspicious when the prima ballerina is one he saw dance more than 100 years ago. When Cordelia and Angel sneak backstage to investigate, they find themselves trapped in a maze of corridors where they are consumed by overwhelming passion for each other as they get possessed by spirits of unrequited ballet lovers held captive by the sinister ballet troupe leader Count Kurshov. Also, Fred finds that both Wesley and Gunn have feelings for her too, but she must eventually choose one of them.
