Amends

Amends is a Christmas-themed episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

While Buffy's friends and allies prepare for various forms of celebrating the holiday season, The First Evil, the incorporeal unkillable ancient entity from which all things wrong first came, targets Angel with all the many wrongs he did before he regained his soul. His aim is to destroy a potent force for good, and eliminate Buffy's souled-vampire ally and lover, by compelling the guilt-ridden Angel to pay for his bloody past as Angelus by awaiting the dawn and his death. Buffy fights the mortal minions of the First Evil to try and save Angel from guilt-driven suicide. But since the First Evil can assume the form of anyone who has died, and the list of his victims is so long and horrid, the entity has time on its side. But just as Angel prepares to let the morning sun destroy him, a miraculous snowfall thwarts both the First Evil and the prevailing weather patterns in Southern California. As the snow continues to fall that Christmas morning, Buffy and Angel take a rare daylight walk and simply have a wonderful Christmastime.
