"Just sitting here watching our barren lives pass us by...

[lettered]

Oh, look, a cockroach."

Can we do that thing where you give me a subject and I list TOP 5? Please? Because I'm bored, and needs should definitely be met. As long as it doesn't require ointments the next day.

All those are great answers, but I like 1, 3, and 4 because they're these striking but never-again-mentioned figures in Angel's life, and all women who twisted the expectations of the girl who gets saved by the hero in the end.

Loved the bubble wrap thing (which for some reason I first spelled bbbbuble wrap -- the extra b's make it tastier!).

YAY MONKEYS!!!

I didn't even notice that theme. Except in "City of". You just don't open a series with the hero not saving the damsel, and yet this ep does and it sets the tone for the whole show. AtS isn't about saving people; it's about dealing with all that you can't save.

Always did like my bbbbuble wrap with fondue.

YAY MONKEYS!!!

Yes, but do be careful. Sex with monkeys is overrated.

Yes, yes -- that's what I meant, though perhaps it wasn't clear. None of them were saved by the hero, really -- though of course Angel took the fall (literally) as the outsider for the woman in "Are You Now or Have You Ever Been". I guess one could make the argument that she's saved at the end, by forgiveness.
