Summary

Angel joins forces with Jhiera, an alien demon princess, who arrives in Los Angeles to save the enslaved women from her dimension. The men of her land are fierce warriors who see their women as second class and want to control them by performing a sort of lobotomy when they come of age. There is a showdown at a health spa where Jhiera is keeping her fleeing followers.

Expanded

Cordelia throws a party at her place, which Angel and Wesley both attend. A woman tries to get Angel to dance, but a mental flash of the wacky dancing he could do keeps Angel from saying yes. Angel mopes at the party, and finds his only friend is phantom Dennis. A man at the Ice Factory hears voices from a large box and opens it.

The next morning, Cordelia informs Angel that he wasn't any fun at the party. Wesley is at a loss for money, so Angel offers him a job at Angel Investigations. Cordelia has a vision of a man being burned from the inside, which sends Angel and Wesley go to the scene at the Ice Factory. Angel finds the remains of the man and the empty crate filled with ice. He finds a demon named Tae, who is from another dimension. He was sent to bring back the demon that has escaped from his realm.

Angel goes searching for information on Peter Wilkers, the man who was burned, by searching through his office. In the midst of his search however, Angel is attacked by a female demon that kills with the power of fire. She knocks Angel out of the way with a powerful blow and then leaves when she gets a call on her cell phone. Angel calls Cordelia on a bad cell phone connection while he chases after the she demon. Angel follows her through an art gallery and begins to talk about the art to a group of people to avoid the security guards looking for him.

Meanwhile, Wesley discovers information on this demon species. Angel goes to a back room and encounters the female demon, Jheira. Another female demon enters this universe through a portal, but Tae and other males of the species arrive and attack them. They take the new girl and bring her to a building. With a special tool, the "un-make" her. At Angel's place, Jheira tells Angel about her kind. The personalities of the women are taken away--they are un-made--when they reach a certain age so that they can better serve the men. She tells him about the fire beneath her skin and how ice is the only way to cool that fire.

After discovering that the demons are herbivores and eat their weight in food, Cordelia and Wesley go looking for compost. They find the demons and overhear a conversation about their plans to capture Jheira, who is a princess in their world, and bring her back. Jheira goes to the other women that are being kept safe on beds of ice. She talks with a human male who is helping her take care of the other women from her world. They try to make arrangements for the females to be moved to another, safer location.

After Cordelia and Wesley tell Angel about what they heard, they head to the location where Jheira and the other women are. Angel has the address from a paper he stole from Wilkers's office. While Cordelia and Wesley get the other girls out, Angel helps Jheira fight. When the other women are safe, Wesley and Cordelia return to the fight. They get held hostage and Jheira is willing to let them die in exchange for the survival and freedom of her own kind. With the other girls in boxes of ice on the back of a truck, Jheira tries to drive them away, but is attacked by two of the male demons. Before they can un-make her, Angel stops them and Jheira gets away.

The next day, Wesley apologizes for being taken as a hostage. Jheira shows up and she talks with Angel. The other women are safe, away from the city. The tension thick between them, Jheira leaves to continue what she does. Angel promises that he'll do what he has to if she takes her mission to save the innocent too far.
