[edit] Plot synopsis
[edit] Summary
As Halloween approaches, Lorne throws a Halloween party for all the firm’s clients and employees and even gets a reluctant Angel to invite a powerful demon lord, named Archduke Sebassis, to the party. During the gathering, Lorne's timely advice to his friends starts happening literally, leading to Fred and Wesley getting drunk after Lorne tells them to loosen up, Gunn to embarrassingly relieve himself to "mark his territory", Angel and Eve to have sex, and even Spike and the dim-witted Harmony to have fun on the dance floor. The events lead to only more trouble when Lorne's empathic subconscious begins manifesting itself in a hulking demon (resembling a larger Lorne on steroids) which is caused by his sleep deprivation. The deprivation itself was the result of Wolfram and Hart removing it entirely. The episode also reveals Lorne is proud of his organizational skills, as he feels most of his other talents simply do not match up to what his friends can do.
The larger Lorne causes much violence before the gang restores Lorne's sleep and neutralizes the monster. The chaos and destruction has a positive side, the rank and file of Wolfram and Hart express the opinion it made the party much better.
