*** Even if her legs were just asleep, she'd feel a sensation. Leeza is telling Warren she can't feel them at all. The reason Warren isn't shocked or concerned is because he's aware the mobility she gained was because she'd been repeatedly infused with the vampire's blood. Both Warren and Leeza saw the vampire flee the island, and were wondering if it would be able to find a place to shelter itself in time. Her losing feeling in her legs meant that the power of the vampire blood was gone, which was a clear indication Erin's damaging of its wings prevented it from reaching shelter, and it burned in the sunlight.

** Sarah theorizes that a person's physical response to the affected blood is based on how much blood they have in their body and its proportion to their own blood. Erin's sample catches fire, but her blood is left unharmed while the Angel blood burns away, because it's still mostly her blood. Mildred's sample, however, burns almost completely. It's possible that if a person only has a small amount (one or two sacraments' worth) in their body, their own blood would eventually replace it, maybe causing its effects to "wear off" in a way. But as they continue taking in more and more, it would grow new cells just like real blood does and eventually be more than their own blood. It took several communions for Leeza to be able to walk, and for Mildred to recover from her dementia, so they probably needed more than one or two small doses to make big recoveries. It's possible that Leeza's body had processed out the Angel blood, just like bodies do with ordinary blood cells. And without more to replace it, and not being a vampire herself, its effects "wore off."

** Father Paul didn't say that Joe told him he was visiting his sister. He said that Joe was "visiting his sister, I think," which could mean that ''he'' thought that's what Joe was doing, not what Joe told him. The problem there is that Bev made a point of "filling in" Father Paul (when she thought he was new) about every single detail of the islanders' lives, and also made a point of telling everyone she had done that. So she probably would have mentioned to Father Paul that Joe's sister had died a few months ago, especially since it was adding to Joe's struggles with his sobriety and Father Paul would be leading the [=AA=] meetings.
** It's a weird slip, in any case, because Monsignor Pruitt would also probably have known that Joe's sister died (he had only left the island two weeks previously), and thus Paul should have known about it.

** It's shown that giving someone vampire blood as they're dying will save them, and Riley's injuries (neck broken in three places) after the angel attack would certainly have been fatal otherwise. The only way he could have survived the attack was if Pruitt intervened and gave him some of his own blood before he properly died. The result is the same--he is brought back to life and transformed, he just didn't have the blood until right before his fatal injury. Pruitt could have saved Joe Collie the same way, but was too overcome by hunger (and probably his own judgment) to do it.
