I was just gonna mention the sadness
plastic-hand Lindsey projected in looking at his guitar, and the mad skills he
demonstrated upon picking it up again.
I think I saw a flicker of ... something ... cross Lorne's face while Lindsey
was singing. He was enjoying the song and then ... a flicker of some ...
unpleasantness. Kinda weird. Wonder what that was about.
Lindsey had two scenes in "Dead
End" where he got to project an easy and capable brilliance in terms of
legal strategy. It's a shame he won't, apparently, be coming 'round any more.
How creepy is Nathan Reed?
Yeah, Cordy's pain was very well done. It's so weird watching her acting on
"Angel." Why can't this girl find a job? Incidentally, I was also
expecting a different response than "I love you." And I liked Angel's
smile afterwards too.
I thought it would've been interesting if they'd introduced the Doc Sparrow
character in this episode. Too bad.
Summing up, I don't know why I didn't remember this as being the truly great
episode it was. Angel reincorporating himself back into the Team, turning into
a vamp to get info, really exploring and developing the heck out of Lindsey's
character (sadly, just before he gets the boot), Lilah looking actually scared,
that cool floaty shaman thingy, and a nice appearance by Lorne.
This was some good eppy.
