Maggie and Nina repaid that favour with their own little push. They told Crowley that though he and his angel spoke all the time, they never told each other what they were really thinking, and it was time that they did. Crowley listened, and chose to act. Instead of sliding back into the old routine and having the planned “extremely alcoholic breakfast at the Ritz”, he planned to tell Aziraphale exactly how he felt.
Aziraphale’s Decision
“You idiot. We could have been us.”
In true rom-com second-act timing, Crowley’s declaration came at the most inopportune moment. While he was being coached by Maggie and Nina on the ways of the heart, Aziraphale was receiving a different kind of proposal – the top job in heaven, plus full reinstatement of Crowley’s angel status. It was a dream come true, for Aziraphale, who, despite several adventures involving lessons about moral relativism this season, still hadn’t shaken off the idea that heaven equals good and hell equals bad, or truly understood heaven’s tyranny.
Disgusted by Aziraphale’s naïve proposal, Crowley confessed his love and kissed his man, only to meet a confused, pious “I forgive you” in return. “Don’t bother,” snarled Crowley, swaggering to his Bentley to watch his angel leave the bookshop to go to his new life in Heaven with the Metatron. The series ended with cameras trained on both their faces as they absorbed their new separation. Heartbreak, in short.
The Second Coming
“To set into motion the next step in the great plan.”
The Metatron, or the highest-ranking angel in Heaven (played here by Derek Jacobi) is clearly not to be trusted, not that Aziraphale can see it. To revive Heaven’s reputation after Gabriel’s defection, the Metatron attempted to re-recruit both Aziraphale and Crowley, the latter of whom had been banished to hell millennia ago for displaying independence of mind. Aziraphale took the Metatron’s bait, but rebel Crowley refused, not wanting to be part of either Heaven or Hell.
