After watching Cordelia's jaw-droppingly bad stage premier, Angel (
David Boreanaz) and Wesley (Alexis Denisof) do what they can to say nice things. On the street, Cordelia (
Charisma Carpenter) spots famous agent Oliver Simon (Michael Mantell) escorting his soap-star client, Rebecca Lowell (Tamara Gorski). When a car nearly runs Rebecca over, Angel saves her. The next day, she enlists Angel's help in protecting her from a stalker. Torn by nascent romantic feelings for her, Angel declines, then ends up becoming her bodyguard anyway. But it turns out that Rebecca is looking for more than protection -- she wants eternal youth. Originally broadcast April 4, 2000, on the WB network, "
Eternity" marked season one, episode 17 of the supernatural comedy drama. Michael Mantell previously appeared (uncredited) in "
City of Angels"; his pushy agent character offered Angel an acting gig, which the vampire hero politely declined. ~ Brian J. Dillard, All Movie Guide
