There's a dramatic catwalk moment in "Crush" when Drusilla kills that girl and feeds her to Spike.
Which totally falls into the category my brain is slotting.
Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

The catwalk always seems to be used in club situations. The Hyperion had those nifty mezzanines, which would be perfect for someone broody to stand on and observe from, but they didn't use them that way.

Maybe they were too far away?

Clubs work better for it because of the sheer mass of humanity from which you are feeling in some way apart. Brooding from above when there are only a handful of people in the building has a different feel.

Maybe. But an over the shoulder shot with Angel in the shadows and the MoG down below being convivial would have been cool.

True. Isolation rather than superiority.

Ann, that's a ferret.
but they didn't use them that way
Didn't they, at least once in "Are You Now..."?

I don't see it that way so much, as a case of specific vs. general. The image of someone looking down at a small group of his or her friends registers in my head as isolation/separation from a specific group, where someone looking down at a press of people registers as isolation/separation from humanity in general. Either could also register as superiority, depending on how it's played.
