Oh, me too. Quentin's description of her as "our beautiful black-hearted child of the angels" was great. Love the brown dress, too.
Quentin and Angelique seem to be cut from the same cloth-- both had "larger expectations" than what they were given in life, and they're beautiful and clever and learned to take what they wanted by whatever force necessary.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that Angelique saw in Evan Hanley Nicholas Blair's twin, just as she saw Rachel Josette's twin. I think she WANTED an excuse to choke him, and he certainly obliged.
Maybe she just really didn't like lawyers?
Seriously, the scene IS fun to watch. But I don't recall any character saying that Evan and Nicholas have the same face, whereas the resemblances between other characters throughout the series got mentioned even in cases when they also ended up not meaning anything-- [spoiler]Rachel and Josette (because I don't believe a soul can be reincarnated into two persons at the same time),[/spoiler] Matthew Morgan and Ben, Ned Stuart and Jeff/Peter, Sebastian Shaw and Jeb. So maybe we're not supposed to notice that Evan and Nicholas could be twins.

Rachel, ... Her only crime was to look like Josette which is all the reason Angelique needed to hurt her.
If Angelique's reason for going after Rachel was that she was a Josette look-a-like, I don't think there would have been any need for the scene in which Angie witnessed Rachel receiving the music box from Barnabas. So I blame Barnabas, who seems to keep forgetting why he's in 1897 and apparently can't stop himself from indiscriminately changing future events. And by giving the music box away, how does he even know it will get back to where it's supposed to be in 1967? <sigh>
