"Release" is the 14th episode of the fourth season of the American television series Angel.
At a demon bar, Angelus is spoken to by a deep disembodied voice, which turns out to originate from Cordelia, projecting from the hotel.
Angelus is contacted again by Cordelia telepathically, and this time she threatens to restore his soul if he refuses to help.
The fight is long and brutal, with Faith eventually seeming to have beaten Angelus into submission - only to have him suddenly leap on her and bite her neck.
After over 40 guest appearances, Andy Hallett joins the regular cast and is now billed in the opening credits.
