I don't know if you know this, but I have been fiddling with a fan fic in which I bring the Connor from the end of "Home" back into Angel's life and help resolve some left over issues that got glossed over removing Connor's memory of his old life and everyone's memory of Connor.
What's stumping me is having to write an alternative version of the season 3 and 4 history without Connor, and the Wesley betrayal issue is one of the toughest.
I was getting stuck on the idea that no one in the gang had ever knew Darla was pregnant at all--that the very idea of Angel having a kid had been removed from their memories. Therefore this history/alternate memory thing would have to go as close to what happened as possible, but without Darla showing up pregnant.
But you're right, all that happens at the end of Home is Fred saying "Connor who?" which doesn't preclude the gang knowing Darla was pregnant, it only precludes everything that happened after Connor was born and Angel gave him a name.

Will have to think on this a while.
