Actually you raise a point it is really dark - attempted AR of not just Angel but Liliah too by deception. I doubt Angel would be too happy that his body had been used to almost shag Liliah. I know it's not what you meant but yeah also Marcus is guilt of the rape and murder of a string of young men and a lot of women by deception too. Good thing he gets his comeuppance at the end.Yeah, this isn't really in the same league as 'Who Are You?', it's more of a funny 'watch DB be wacky for an episode'.
There's some fun stuff like the conversation between Angel/Marcus and Wesley, and the stuff with Lilah- I always knew she lusted after Angel, ever since 'The Ring'...
But remember, according to some people Angel was raped by an old man in this episode, so it's actually really dark, and not funny at all.![]()
I've always really liked this episode and it's nice to have you along with the ladies at Still Dead validate that.Felt like posting on this one again, such a good episode for the season. Light-hearted, but extremely poignant at the end when Angel and Fred finally have their "conversation" that Angel's been meaning to have for a while. "Cordelia said you'd probably just screw it up".. "Oh, she did, did she..? She's probably right..."
Great, fun scene where Angel reveals the Charlton Heston two-for-one at the movie theatre.
That really strong guy with the two girls in bed always makes me laugh.. "its good to be young..." (truer words..)
Another strong scene at the hotel after Fred and Angel get back from their "date".. fun stuff all round
Really funny seeing DB in his role as Angel after the initial body-switch..
Love to see Angel eating burritos, lol
Overall, this is an extremely well written and constructed/arranged episode.
Nice twist with Angel getting it on with Lilah, didn't see that one coming.
'Angel' at the club is just awesome..
8/10 for me
Where did you mention that in your post?Also you missed the part where I said I knew it wasn't your intention.
Apart from the comparison isn't really applicable at all. If a body swap is rape then Angel was raped by Marcus, its not really attempted rape at all.Funny how you get food for thought from the strangest places.
Tother - It's not the body swap itself that's rape although that's bad but the sex the person has with the other person's body without their consent if they disfigured the possessed body it would be some sort of assault. Hence why Marcus is guilty of AR of Angel and Liliah and murder of others.I doubt Angel would be too happy that his body had been used to almost shag Liliah.
I know it's not what you meant
