As a new age of fellowship and love dawns on Los Angeles, Fred (Amy Acker) flees from her pursuers, Gunn (J. August Richards) and Wesley (Alexis Denisof). Hunted by her former suitors, who are now devoted acolytes of sinister guru Jasmine (Gina Torres), she finds safety in a fleabag motel -- until Jasmine joins her mind with those of her followers and is suddenly able to see through their eyes. Now visible to Jasmine every time she crosses the path of one of the superbeing's growing legion of worshipers, Fred is reduced to hiding out in a cave with a cranky, carnivorous creature (Danny Woodburn) who's been driven underground by what he calls Jasmine's "demon jihad." Meanwhile, the hotel fills up with Jasmine's worshipers, a handful of whom mysteriously disappear each night for an audience with their goddess -- and are never heard from again. Angel (David Boreanaz) and company take care of the assembled throngs even as Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter) lies in a coma, seemingly brain-dead after the ordeal of birthing Jasmine. Ultimately, Fred decides to expose herself to danger in a desperate gambit to open Angel's eyes to Jasmine's true nature. Her second assassination attempt fails as miserably as the first (see "Shiny Happy People"), but in the aftermath, Angel is finally able to see Jasmine for what she is. As it turns out, her true nature is evident only to those whose blood becomes mingled with Jasmine's. Now both fugitives, Angel and Fred sneak into the hotel hoping to save their addled friends with this newfound knowledge. Despite promising signs of life from the still-unconscious Cordelia, their rescue mission is only partially successful; one member of the fang gang refuses to stop seeing Jasmine's light. Originally broadcast April 16, 2003, on the WB network, "The Magic Bullet" marked season four, episode 19 of the supernatural soap opera. The title of this episode refers not only to Fred's assassination attempt, but also to the conspiracy-theory bookstore where she stages the big event. ~ Brian J. Dillard, All Movie Guide

Once again, Oswald (Diedrich Bader) and Lewis (Ryan Stiles) screw up, and as a result the Buzz Beer booth at a business expo is set up right next to the booth occupied by a virulent anti-alcohol group, whose horribly graphic pictures of rotting livers are hardly condusive to happy drinking. Despite this blunder, the guys are determined that Buzz will be selected as "beer of the month", and to this end Oswald and Lewis come up with a can't-miss idea: Renting a beer-guzzling circus bear named Buzzie Wuzzie as corporate mascot. Unfortunately, Buzzie has spent far too many hours in the DrugCo experimental labs, and has developed his own ideas about promotion--which include stealing the Buzz beer truck and going for a joyride! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Boyd Hale and Wendy Hopkins co-direct this light comedy about the profound emptiness of existence and suicidal depression. Harley Henson (Mark Boone, Jr.) had his moment of glory 20 years ago when he broke the state football rushing record. A knee injury killed any chances at furthering his football career. Since then, he passes his days drinking and talking about the old days with his buddies, but his life has not gotten any better. His wife wants a divorce, and his teenaged son hates him. Moreover, a Korean-born athlete from a rival school threatens to break his record. ~ Jonathan Crow, All Movie Guide

Paul (Paul Reiser) takes a tumble in the shower, and in that split second his whole life flashes before his eyes. Highlights (or lowlights) include Paul's first kiss, and his mother Sylvia's (Cynthia Harris) outraged reaction; the sage advice of Paul's dad, Burt (Louis Zorich), specifically "you ain't ever going to win"; and the testimony of wife Jamie (Helen Hunt) regarding Paul's ability (or lack of same) to tell a lie. Gordon Hunt, frequent Mad About You director and the father of series star Helen Hunt, has a cameo role. ~ All Movie Guide
