Can Angela see Gabriel when she goes to see Father David?

Angela reveals approx 01:02 that after betraying her sister she lost the gift to see half-breeds.

So is she able to see Gabriel when he's speaking with Father David at the church fireplace?

And assuming that Angela indeed cannot see Gabriel, wouldn't she think it's quite odd that Father David is holding a conversation with "thin air" (and that Constantine urgently speaks to the same "thin air" throughout her conversation with Father David regarding her sister's funeral)? Especially given the fact that she's a police detective and would naturally pick up on peculiar/suspicious behavior?

no doubt it, bc she lost that ability when she lied causing more problems for her sis. i think john re-introduced her to her "gift" after she accepted Izzy's fate...and forced her to acknowledge the crap she put her sis through acting like her sis was nuts etc. it was partly her fault Izzy was in the psych unit to begin with...she owed this to her sis.

Angela could see Gabriel, but only in her human form that both angels and demons use to disguise themselves and walk on our plane of existence.

If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do. -Angel

She couldn't see Gabriel for what he was. She only saw him as another human being. But she sensed something different (her talent coming through).

Constantine also sensed that she was like him because he immediately assumed that she was there for Gabriel not the priest.

Ah that would explain why Constantine says "first come, first served" when Angela says she needs to speak with him (the Father) and goes on to talk to Gabriel instead. I always wondered about that scene since Constantine didn't attempt to speak to the Father first.
