This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

From a television episode: This is a redirect from a television or radio episode title to a related work or lists of episodes. The destination may be an article about a related episode, a subsection or a standalone list of episodes.

To an embedded anchor: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to an embedded anchor on the redirect's target page.
- An {{anchor|(anchor name)}} or {{visible anchor}} template, a HTML element with id="(anchor name)", or an |id=(anchor name) parameter might be installed at the beginning of a paragraph, in or near a section header or within a table. The anchor might also be an old section header that has been edited and is anchored within or near the new header to prevent broken internal and external links.
- Even though section headers of the general form ==(Header name)== are themselves a type of anchor, use {{R to section}} instead.

With history: This is a redirect from a page containing substantive page history. This page is kept as a redirect to preserve its former content and attributions. Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated), nor delete this page.
- This template should not be used for redirects having some edit history but no meaningful content in their previous versions, nor for redirects created as a result of a page merge (use {{R from merge}} instead), nor for redirects from a title that forms a historic part of Wikipedia (use {{R with old history}} instead).

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.

-"'''Awakening'''" is episode 10 of season 4 in the television show ''[[Angel (1999 TV series)|Angel]]''.
-==Plot synopsis==
-In an attempt to locate the Beast and restore the sun to Los Angeles, Wesley brings in a dark mystic, named Wo-Pang, to extract Angel’s soul and release his evil alter-ego, Angelus, who apparently encountered the Beast centuries before and may know how to kill it. The gang build a large cage in the basement and tie Angel down within it. Wo-Pang begins to cast the spell.
-Wo-Pang, however, is revealed to be a traitor, and attempts to kill Angel rather than remove his soul, and is subdued.. Cordelia has a vision that shows the location of a sword that can kill the Beast - which is conveniently below Los Angeles. Angel, Cordelia, Connor and Wesley venture to a subterranean tunnel filled with traps, and Angel acquires the sword. In the tunnels, Cordelia and Angel confess their feelings for one another. Connor witnesses the exchange and runs off, but after talking with Angel gives him their blessing.
-The group return to the hotel, where they are attacked by the Beast. Angel orders the others away and fights, eventually persevering in stabbing and killing it. With the death of the Beast, the sun is restored. Against their better judgment, Cordelia and Angel make love , and as a result, Angel experiences a moment of true happiness after believing he finally won her heart.
-As he loses his soul, it turns out that this all took place in Wo-Pang's illusion, designed to make Angel achieve perfect happiness, and thus Angelus is awoken.
-==Production details==
-===Arc significance===
-*Angel voluntarily gives up his soul and reverts to Angelus.  He remains as such for the next several episodes.
-===Cultural References===
-*The group's adventure under the city bears many resemblances to scenes from the [[Indiana Jones]] saga, most obviously in Angel's utterance of "Wood. Why'd it have to be wood?"
-===Continuity===
-*This is the first true present-day appearance of Angelus since "[[Becoming (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)|Becoming]]", in season 2 of ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV series)|Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]''. Angel had temporarily taken on the behavior of Angelus briefly during "[[Eternity (Angel)|Eternity]]", due to a drug-enhanced delusion of happiness, and had played the part of Angelus convincingly in "[[Enemies (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)|Enemies]]" in an orchestrated attempt to convince Faith that Angel had turned on Buffy. Other than Cordelia (and Wesley, if the incident from "Eternity" is considered), this is the first encounter any of the gang has had with Angelus' former self.
-*This episode marks the second time a mystic is called upon to remove Angel's restored soul, the first (unsuccessful) attempt being "Enemies" from season three of ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer''. In both episodes the two mystics are dressed in similar robes.
