劇情大意:
<與天使有約>九季中多集以「饒恕」為主題,本集是其中之一。相當罕見地以「天使失憶」這般令人難以想像但有趣的開頭引出全劇,內容處處充滿濃厚的福音色彩,性格各異的角色與言簡意胲但話中有話的對白引人深思。劇末死囚臨刑前的告白與受害醫師及時由衷的寬恕乃全劇最高潮,將聖經中「饒恕」的真理表達地淋漓盡致,令人觀而潸然淚下。

白雪皚皚的深夜裡,為執行任務的蒙妮卡不慎跌倒撞傷頭,頓時失去記憶,完全忘了自己是天使。她被安頓在一座公車站中,站內有幾個人正等著下一班公車:暴躁易怒的老先生柯隆、古道熱腸的老婦艾菲、身懷六甲的少婦蘇艾倫、手捧聖經,看似道貌岸然的傳道人吉姆弟兄,與等著上公車前往出席殺妻犯死刑的醫師契斯特奎頓。與眾人攀談之時,蒙妮卡明白了他們各有夢想與煩優。艾菲渴望到聖地耶路撒冷瞻仰上帝的榮美;蘇艾倫希望到貓王的故鄉生下孩子;契斯特喪妻已久,卻仍痛恨殺妻犯入骨,誓言要親眼見他被處決。言談間,艾菲發現手邊的金錢遺失,而這筆錢竟夾在蒙妮卡的聖經中!艾菲不願聽她解釋,吉姆弟兄一旁冷嘲熱諷,柯隆不准蒙妮卡離開。百口莫辯的蒙妮卡,該如何澄清自己無辜?她是否會恢復記憶並開導契斯特?全劇將有令人意想不到的發展…

Monica and Tess discuss the next mission in the one-stop town of Savage, Mississippi. Monica slips on the icy pavement outside of a bus station, hits her head, and suffers from amnesia. Inside the station Dr. Chester Crayton somewhat impatiently examines a frightened Monica. The Doctor is on the way to a prison to watch the execution of a man who murdered his wife. The station is filled with other colorful characters including a bible salesman, the crusty station-keeper named the Colonel, a sweet old black lady named Effie, and a young pregnant Elvis fan, Sueellen. As Monica struggles to regain her memory, the doctor reveals the hatred and bitterness he feels over the murder of his wife. Andrew, on his way to "work" the execution, stops by the station and encourages Monica, who doesn't recognize him, to first seek out who God is, and then she will know herself. The bible salesman steals Effie's money, but Monica is accused of the crime and the Colonel calls the cops. Monica, thoroughly lost, begins to cry, but Sueellen's boyfriend, Skeeter, teaches her to pray. Monica prays that God would restore her memory, but instead the police arrive and handcuff her. Effie, however, decides to forgive Monica and give her the money. This extreme act of forgiveness reminds Monica of who God is and who she is. She reveals herself to Effie, who is delighted to finally see an angel. Later at the prison, the murderer asks the doctor to forgive him for killing his wife. The doctor scoffs at this request and the execution commences. Monica appears to the doctor and begs him to forgive the murderer as a means of achieving peace in his own life. The doctor suspends the execution so he can tell the murderer that he has, indeed, forgiven him.
