I'm rewatching Good Omens S2 (yes I want to feel the pain again). And there's something I noticed.
In the first episode, the scene where Aziraphale and Crowley stepped out of the coffee shop, Maggie bumped into them and thanked Aziraphale for forgiving her record shop's months of rent in exchange for a couple of records. Aziraphale said it was nothing. And proceeds quickly to the bookshop with Crowley.
As they do so Crowley teased, "Doing good again, Angel."
Aziraphale said that it hardly counts and it was purely a selfish act. ( He calls forgiving debts a selfish act? I would love to have a landlord like Aziraphale!)
Fast forward to the 5th episode. After Crowley takes the humans out of the demon-infested bookshop to save them, Mrs. Sandwich tells Crowley that he is a "good lad". Crowley then replied he was neither of them (good or a lad) but thanked her just the same and smiled at her.
And it seems the tables have turned on our ineffable idiots.
Aziraphale is now the one denying that he's done something good and brushes off the compliments. While Crowley, instead of pinning people against walls, now accepts a compliment that he has done something good.
Am I just over-analyzing things again?
