He's So Incredibly Handsome! At The Same Time, 100 Things Are Happening In Me - I Want To Stare At Him

When Aziraphale and Crowley talk about their work in Edinburgh, camera shows the stage again. At this time, Hamlet utters lines from the monologue "to be or not to be":

- The pangs of despised love,

and the insolence of office,

and the spurns that we are…

These lines speak of not approved love and oppression by arrogant and unfair bosses. Crowley can be seen emphasizing these words of Hamlet when he convinces Aziraphale safe the agreement.

Yes, Crowley, please. It's so hot here. And maybe it will distract Aziraphale and me from your tight jeans and all that..

Here's my theory "The Hidden Morse Messages."

1 SHE’S IN MA PHONE (or He's) Ma phone is an outdated name for a magnetophone. During World War 2, german engineers developed a device for recording sound on magnetic tape.

Crowley uses such a device and even gets inside - into it magnetic field. Together with Hastur. And we know that you can get stuck there, just like Hastur got stuck. Who exactly is this "She" or "He" who is in the "ma phone", I do not know yet. Perhaps the "dreadful eternity" itself.

2 HAVE A DREADFUL ETERNITY

- it is said to someone who is stuck in this "dreadful eternity"

- it is said about some eternity that has become dreadful, because it has become closed perhaps. (It's a little difficult, I know).

Tommy Westphall - Wikipedia

In short, there is a kind of crossover of all (or many) shows /series in the consciousness of Tommy Westphall. A little more: In a 2003 article published on BBC News Online, St. Elsewhere writer Tom Fontana was quoted as saying "Someone did the math once… and something like 90 percent of all [American] television took place in Tommy Westphall's mind. God love him."[9] (link 2) When directing episodes for the eighth series of the revived Doctor Who in 2014, Ben Wheatley had the art department create a replica of Tommy Westphall's snowglobe, which Wheatley placed in the TARDIS set as a reference to the hypothesis.[11] (link 2)

5 HEAVEN LOOKS DOWN ON YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE PATHETIC ABANDON ALL HOPE YE WHO ENTER HERE CHEER UP IT’S ONLY ETERNAL DAMNATION DO NOT LICK THE WALLS

Here is one of my generalizing theories of Morse messages. We are really stuck in the universe of Good Omens, like a hellish web. This universe is full of references to literature, music, series and movies. In addition, a large of dialogues in the series are written in such a way that you can read between the lines and find new meanings. We literally "lick the walls." That is, we examine every pixel on every damn frame. Heaven (the creators) suggests that we give up all hope of saving our long-suffering souls. But they cheer us up - it's a sweet eternal damnation. Heaven looks down on us because we will never be able to find all the hidden meanings.

In this post: 20% jokes 5% sarcasm 20% pathos 100% love and admiration for the creators of Good Omens 40% hope to find another meaning of these secret messages 15% of the fatigue from Googling.

p.s. I'm going to formulate a more complex theory, good luck to me

Another theory about Maggie and Nina, plus a theory about coffee and death and a lot of symbolism.

Theory One (Maggie and Nina)

Nina and Maggie can symbolize the two sides of Aziraphale and Crowley's relationship. Maggie (this name means pearl, it is a symbol of hidden treasure and purity) this is the best thing about their relationship. It's their love for each other, for music and for the bookshope. This is confirmed by the jewelry on Maggie's neck (heart, snake and ring). This relationship is timid and it's hidden, like Maggie herself. Nina is the side of the relationship that is visible "on the surface". Nina is a responsible person, but she looks annoyed, a little rude, closed, distrustful. She is disappointed in her past relationships, which were toxic and there was no love in them. I will also note that Nina is active, she wants to sell her goods to people. Maggie's main theme is music, retro and love. For Nina, it seems to me, this is freedom (there are several statues of liberty in her cafe, one of which stands right on the counter). Including freedom of choice.

Theory two (choice, coffee and death)

So. In symbolism, coffee means awakening, awareness and life force. The torch of the Statue of Liberty means enlightenment, knowledge and optimism about the future. First. Nina offers a choice of coffee or death. In other words, to be alive or to be dead, to wake up or to sleep. Secondly. The hand of death is depicted on the wall, holding out a cup of coffee, like the Statue of Liberty holds out its torch. I can make the assumption that if you choose death, you will still get something. Once again, you make a choice to take a drink from Freedom or from Death. Nina said that no one had ever made such a choice, to which Metatron replied - people are so predictable.

What can death offer? In symbolism, she separates (with her scythe) body and soul, and irrevocable changes occur after her actions.

The third theory (choice without choice or something else)

So. Metatron brings Aziraphale coffee. The coffee was obtained from Nina, who symbolizes the dark side of the relationship between Azi and the Cro, a pinch of almond syrup was added to this cafe - it is what was good in this relationship (Maggie brought the ingredients to the coffee). So this drink is a concentrated version of their relationship. Next, Metatron is lying, claiming that he added a huge amount of almonds to the drink. Almonds in the symbolism of Christianity mean divine favor and hidden truth. Aziraphale asks if he should drink it. Metatron says literally: "Of course, I ingested things in my time, you know". I suppose he also refused something or made a difficult compromise (perhaps for the sake of his high position). Next, a conversation takes place in which Metatron, with the help of manipulation and cunning, compels Aziraphale to accept his offer. Of course, the coffee wasn't literally poisoned. The poison was in his words and intentions. I clarify, Aziraphale still did not make his choice of "coffee or death" when he took a drink from Metatron. And also when he talked to Metatron. At the same time, an equally important conversation takes place between Crowley and the girls. Both Aziraphale and Crowley are confused, events have gained momentum too quickly. There is a climactic conversation at the end of which there is actually (almost) nothing new for them. They always abruptly end the conversation by being rude to each other as soon as the conversation gets a little heated. But this time, fate has put Aziraphale in front of a choice for which there will be no turning back. It is now that Aziraphale is making his choice. Between love and death, he chooses death. When Aziraphale goes up in the elevator, you can see that his face is painfully changing, like his face is cramping up. This effect is highlighted by flashes of light. I explain this by the fact his soul and love remained on Earth (death separated his soul), and he dies - that is, irrevocably changes. Most likely, Maggie also received "death", since we see that she fell asleep in her little back room (of the bookstore).

What happened in the 1920s?

There are only 2 small mentions of the 20s in the series:

00:29:19 S1E1

[Aziraphale]

"I have several very nice bottles of Chateauneuf-du-Pape in the back. I picked up a dozen cases in 1921, and there's still some left for special occasions."

00:38:04 S2E1

"You see, the record shop was opened by my great grandmother in the 1920s. Originally, our shop was in a corner of Mr. Fell’s bookshop."

I didn't find anything else. But it seems to me this time and the event that happened then are important.

In 1920s, great-grandmother Maggie's record store appeared at the Aziraphale bookshop. In 1921, Aziraphale somehow gets several bottles of French wine (it is stored in the back room, that's the name of Maggie's store). Who was Maggie's great-grandmother?

This wine is for special occasions. Aziraphale and Crowley drink it in 1941 in a romantic candlelit setting. The second time they drink it is in S1E1, when they decide to act together. (Even in the final episode of S1, they drink regular champagne at the Ritz.)

Everything French in the film is connected with love. And Aziraphale has certain difficulties with this. He talks easily about divine love for people and the like. But when it comes to romantic love, it confuses him. (and he couldn't learn French.)

In general, I would be interested to find out more about the events of the 1920s and I hope to see this flashback in S3.

a funny theory about Leonardo da Vinci paintings

When I was about to publish my theory, I decided to check if there were already similar ones. And I found this post. My respect. He was before mine. Now, with a clear conscience, I will publish my own.

In this painting by Leonardo da Vinci is Saint John the Baptist. He points to the sky. His gesture signifies the coming appearance of Christ. In Leonardo's painting, John has red hair and a tricky face. Crowley also makes a very similar gesture in the scene where he receives the infant Antichrist. this gesture does not correspond to what he is saying. It amuses me to think that this gesture means - yes, the Antichrist appeared today, but another baby also appeared today. I'm talking about the third baby, who was wrapped in a white blanket. Yes, I'm still hoping for a story about the second coming. Crowley must have met Leonardo. To prove this, he has a copy of the Joconda. His painting has an inscription (a whole sentence) and a signature at the bottom.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to make out what is written there. It would be funny if Leonardo painted his Joconda, and then St. John with Crowley. That's why they both have redheads and such sly smiles) And the letter J could mean Joconda or John. Although I prefer my other theory with the letter J.

Dark-n-Stormy

There is a Dark-n-Stormy cocktail on the menu today. According to some sources, it was invented in the 1920s in Bermuda by the British brothers. Ginger beer, lime juice and dark rum, which gives the drink the color of a thundercloud. I hope this drink will make it a little easier to wait for the S3. They say it helps with motion sickness (on an emotional roller coaster.)
