DISCLAIMER:  I own no one but Carlos.

SUMMARY: Angel characters visit the psychologist's office.

AUTHOR'S NOTE:  If these people don't need a shrink, I don't know who does.  There's soooo much material here, but I won't continue without reviews, so press that little button on the bottom of the page and give me some feedback.

CHAPTER 1: Oedipus Complex

File Name: Angel, Connor

Diagnosis: Oedipus Complex

Treatment Recommendations: Electroshock therapy.

Supplementary Materials: Video and audio tapes of conversations with the patient

Audio Tape 1: Diagnostic Test: Word Association

Now Connor, I'm going to say a few words, and I want you to say the first thing that comes to mind

Fine.

Woman.

Mother.

Man.

Bastard.

Flower.

Devirginization.

That's not a word. (long pause)  All right, all right, it's a word.   Let the record show the subject is now threatening me with a broad sword.  Decision.

Betrayal.

Sex.

Mother, I mean, Cordelia.

Interesting.  Water.

Wet.

Mommy.

Yummy.

Daddy.

I don't swing that way.

Sword.

Sharp.

No, I mean will you please put that sword down.  There's no need to be aggressive here, Connor.  Hit.

Me baby one more time.

Okay, now I'm disturbed.  Arrrg.  Put the sword down, son.  Pregnant.

Incest.

Incest.

Fluffy.

All right, Connor.  I think that's enough for today.  We'll do some more tests and start treatment in our next few sessions.

End Tape 1.

Diagnostic Observations: The subject seems to be obsessively connecting the idea of sex with repressed desires for a maternal relationship.  At this point I believe Electroshock Conditioning might best serve to bring to surface the underlying issues.

TBC (possibly… only if I get enough REVIEWS).. Up next, Connor's "therapy," and Angel, Cordy, Fred, Lorne, Lilah, and Company all visit the shrink.
