Originally scheduled for September 27, 2001, this ER episode was moved back to October 4 due to network coverage of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Weaver (Laura Innes) heads to Doc Magoo's on personal business and fails to answer her pager when Chen (Ming-Na) and Malucchi (Erik Palladino) need her. An off-duty Carter (Anthony Edwards) deals with victims of a rock-concert stampede, tries to rectify a fatal error made by Chen and Malucchi in Weaver's absence, and injures his back. Weaver fires Chen for her error. Benton (Eriq La Salle) learns that the mother of his son, Reese (Matthew Watkins), has been killed in an accident. Vondie Curtis-Hall, who guest starred as a transvestite in an earlier ER episode, here replaces Victor Williams in the recurring role of Roger, the man who claims to be the true biological father of Reese. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

It seems the evil lawyers of Wolfram & Hart have retained the services of a blind assassin (Jennifer Badger Martin) to kill a bunch of children. When junior attorney Lindsey McDonald (Christian Kane) decides he has scruples and wants out of the firm, Angel (David Boreanaz) and company agree to assist him. Angel enlists the help of Gunn (J. August Richards) in helping Lindsey undermine the assassination plan. While breaking into Wolfram & Hart headquarters, Angel discovers and steals an ancient scroll that will figure heavily in the next episode (see "To Shanshu in L.A."). Meanwhile, a witch hunt within the offices of Wolfram & Hart has Lindsey, who's there as a decoy, sweating bullets. It turns out, however, that the execs are rooting out another turncoat for entertaining a job offer at a competing firm. They kill the guy and offer Lindsey the chance to remain at the firm and receive a promotion. Lindsey, who revealed his impoverished upbringing earlier in the episode, chickens out and agrees. Originally broadcast May 16, 2000, on the WB network, Angel: Blind Date marked season one, episode 21 of the supernatural comedy drama. ~ Brian J. Dillard, All Movie Guide
