7. I love the ep because I think it proves there's no soul at all and Buffy has to stop fooling herself. Plus the fact that it's a teacher/student relationship paralleling the B/A relationship which is a very subtle comment on Angel being way too old for her. And as viola_claire points out, a lot of it is echoed further down the line. My favorote part of the ep is Giles' comment about forgiveness - I think it's one of the themes of the series as a whole. And after this point is when Angel really begins to go off the deep end. I think the fact that he said those things to her w/o a soul (even though he wasn't in control) begins to make him search for a much more radical solution to ending Buffy once and for all.
8. I read a story about where Angel learned Tai Chi and now I can't find it. Anyway, I read somewhere that Tai Chi is all about breath control which is why its perfect for Angel. One more way to torment himself.
9. I love the snow because I don't think it has a damn thing to do with redemption. In my view it's the start of TPTB fucking with Angel and turning him into their personal toy. I wrote something about prophecy which fits in with this
10. I know what you mean. Basically, I view as they keep trying even though they both know it's a lost cause.

12. I am convinced if my show hadn't been cancelled, the Mohras would have been revisted. After all the FE was (even if it was incredibly stupid and lame). What I love about the ep is how brilliantly TPTB play Angel. You're a dumbass, Angel. Plus both of them crying at the end guts me. And finally, knowing that DB was in fact totally nekkie during the fridge scene. (It seems the man will remove all his clothing at the drop of a hat.)
13. I like the cookie dough speech because it's just bonkers enough to be something she would say. Plus, a week later she didn't remeber a word. I think Angel was seriously repressing evevrything he'd just been through. He just slit his own son's throught, knows that Cordelia is likely in an irreversible coma and he has just sold his soul to the devil (possibly literally). He just wants to pretend it's seven years ago for a minute. After he leaves Buffy, he goes over to his car and cries for an hour straight.
14. What I hate about the ep is that neither Spike nor Angel remember the color of Buffy's eyes. Yeah, right. Angel is obsessive about details and Spike likely wrote 500 bad poems about her eye color.
