Revisiting how shadow was used during this storyline, I love the way this scene from this ep was shot:
I mean, how many other shows would have had a scene in which a character's face was almost completely in shadow and another half-hidden in shadow, and with the shadow being on the opposite side, no less. It's amazingly effective. And it's just too bad that the Daytime Emmys didn't exist back then because I have a strong feeling that this storyline would have won a slew of technical awards.
