Shelley's performance in the episode was just great. She was a seasoned performer by then and it showed. The part fit her to a T; and she knew what to do with her character. This was one of Shelley's last TV appearances. Let's hope she finds the right vehicle again soon, so we can see more of this fabulous Angel. As for this performance, "Great Work, girl."
