This is one of the best episodes of Angel - magic, mystery, emotional damage, and Summer Glau

Remember Season 1 of BTVS before Cordelia was clear on Angel being a vampire? It sometimes seemed as if she thought she actually had a chance at taking Angel away from Buffy! Look at her now. After everything they've been through, she has finally grown into someone that appreciates the things in life that really matter. Some serious character growth, and done in such a way (at least within the context of the show) that doesn't seem preposterous - that's great writing

She's also part demon now! Thinking about it, we really haven't seen much of that since it happened. 🤔 FWIW, I'd forgotten what she was like around Angel before she knew he was a vampire. 👍

Weird trivia: when they started editing this episode, they realized they had only shot wide and medium shots of the ballet. They scheduled another shoot to get closer footage but the lead male dancer had broken his leg skiing. His leg was in a cast and he could barely walk, never mind leaping about. It's pretty obvious if you're looking for it.

Ouch.

This was a great innovative episode that was written and directed by Whedon himself. Great comedy opener with Cordy, Wesley talking about Denis and the loofah. The backdrop of the ballet is an excellent vehicle to the depth of the story. The Fred/Gunn/Wesley Triangle is now simmering under, and we feel she is now going to make a choice. In this episode I think it has similar vibes to S2 BTVS episode I Only Have Eyes For You, it's almost like a movie on its own. More comedy when Angel comes out of the room and tries to hide his erection from Cordelia. A great double kill by Angel, and then we have Gunn and Fred kissing, and the poignant scene of Wesley seeing it in the background. A super scene when Angel tells the Ballerina ( Firefly's Summer Glau ) to change the dance and he leaps into the theatre box to destroy the Count''s power centre. Angel seems to get a dose of Wesley's treatment when him and Cordelia are talking in the lobby and he says we both, and Cordelia says 'grew' but it's really 'Groo' as the Groosalug has crossed dimensions. Very touching scene at the end too with Fred and Wesley looking on at Groo and Cordy, and she says 'I guess you can never predict those things', you can see the hurt in Wesley's eyes. A really brilliant episode definitely one of the best from either show. One thing I think we can says for certain when Whedon writes and directs, they are always 100% bangers!

I always found it interesting that the dream sequence this episode was designed around (Wesley dreaming he and Fred were the ones onstage dancing) wasn't even needed.
