Yeah, I do think things would have been quicker, but I still don't think Angel would have sprung his feelings on Cordy at the end of WITW, I think he might have put something out there & she just would not have gotten it - like earlier in that ep when he tried to say what it's like to kiss her & she just said 'it's not that horrible'
Would have changed a lot with Connor's kidnapping though, so that would have been interesting...
