[edit] number of appearances

Is there something wrong with my fingers? Harmony is said to appear in 17 episodes of Angel but I can only count to 11. —Tamfang 05:26, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

She appeared in 11 as a guest star and 6 as a regular 10:03, 7 February 2006 (UTC)~~

(I guess that last comment was from Pinchofhope.) Thank you! —Tamfang 18:27, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sire

Who was Harmony's sire. I just watched Graduation and yes Harmony is bitten and then is not seen again, till we see her as a vampire next season. is it the female vampire that bit her, or someone else, like Spike. I'll take a non canon answer from the novels:

We see Harmony get bit in Graduation II, but who her sire is never revealed. It could be the same vampire seen biting her onscreen. Else any other surviving vampire could have taken her 'turned' her in the chaos following the school exploding. It's unlikely that Spike was the sire since "In The Harsh Light of Day" implies (but doesn't outright state), that Spike had only recently returned to Sunnydale for the first time since "Lovers' Walk" -- Paxomen 11:46, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cordettes or Harmoniettes?

This may sound like a strange question, but the season 2 episode 'Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered' got me thinking. In the final scene it featured the following lines from Cordelia to Harmony: 'You're a sheep. (...) All you ever do is what everyone else does, just so you can say you did it first. And here I am scrambling for your aproval, when I'm way cooler than you are cause I'M not a sheep! I do what I wanna do, and I wear what I wanna wear.' These lines seem to imply that Harmony is the leader and trendsetter of Cordelia's group-o'-pals, since it states that Cordelia 'scrambles for Harmony's approval' everytime Harmony's chosen a new type of outfit. Even though Cordelia has clearly been shown in earlier episodes, with an entourage of ever-changing roster (extras of the week), as leader, if we are going to make it canon, it should be cleared up who was trendsetter and head of the group: Cordelia or Harmony? What do you guys say? [under his breath] Ohmigosh, gag me with a spoon, I'm delving into Valley-rama! Trey uncool! 62.194.0.236 14:04, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Like you said, Cordelia was clearly the leader of the group. She was only scrambling for Harmony's approval when it came to the Xander stuff in that particular episode, not when Harmony chooses a new outfit. The dynamic changes a bit after BB&B and "The Wish", but overall, I think most people will agree that Cordy was the leader and Harmony was the sycophant. --SHODAN 14:30, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Agreed - Cordelia was the leader, but her position still derived from social approval (such is the nature of teen queens). Riverbend 15:52, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

I agree with Riverbend - Cordy was clearly the leader of the Cordettes. But her position as such came from social standing; she was only seen as the leader as long as the others viewed her as the coolest (i.e., approved of her the most). Cordy knew that her being the boss of the group depended heavily on how the group viewed her, and whether the group approved of her coolness factor or not. That's what her statement about "scrambling for approval". If you want an even clearer explanation, watch The Breakfast Club and pay special attention to Molly Ringwald's character, the prom princess; she talks about the pressure on the cool kids to be cool, how it's "harder" for them because they have to constantly work at maintaining their social status.

Okay, writing it down... and it's noted. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
