This is definitely one of my favorites! Brilliant!!

They could have easily gone into some pretty insensitive territory with all the parallels they drew, but I think they made all the right choices. Like Angel and Judy both being torn between two worlds and being rejected by both only really works by making Judy white-passing, since Angel is white. They don't have equivalent experiences by any means, but Angel can somewhat understand her experience because of who he is. I'm also glad that if they were going to portray a lynching, it was with a white character.

The penultimate scene never fails to reduce me to jelly.

This episode is simultaneously one of the saddest, ugliest, and most beautiful stories I've ever seen.

I was 13 when this episode first aired, and I thought it was massively overrated. Now as an adult, I think this is one of the very best episodes of the entire Buffyverse.
