"Sympathy for the Devil" is the third episode of the second season of the CBS drama series "Touched by an Angel." This is the episode where Monica meets her former friend named Kathleen (Jasmine Guy), who is now an ex-angel and works for Satan.

Plot

Matt Duncan (Robert Kelker-Kelly) books a rodeo into an arena he manages not realizing that his estranged father is one of the feature attractions. Ty Duncan (Stacy Keach) is a grizzled veteran of the rodeo circuit and wants to reconcile with his son before he dies. Monica, who's acting as Matt's bookkeeper, is horrified to learn that the midway's fortune teller is Kathleen (Jasmine Guy)--a former friend and fallen angel--who is determined to keep the father and son apart.

Kathleen decides to focus on little Daniel Duncan (Miko Hughes), who had previously been told his grandfather was dead. Kathleen makes sure that Ty meets Danny, which infuriates Matt who is led to believe Monica is at fault. The "dark angel" also makes a pass at him, since his wife is out of town. After the youngster slips into the corral of a dangerous bull, Monica rescues him and then intercedes in the resulting fight between Matt and Ty. She reveals she is an angel and was sent to end the cycle of hatred between the father and son and to uncover Kathleen as a force of evil. Ty makes a memorable final bull ride, which his son and grandson watch, and then dies.
