Angela stands there silently, looking both pretty and in need of Brian’s help something in guys’ genetic wiring makes us fall for girls in such situations. Angela – rescued from a bad encounter with older guys outside Let’s Bolt - has been dropped off by a police officer a little bit away from her house, and the officer asks Brian to walk Angela home. Later, in “Self-Esteem” and “In Dreams Begin Responsibilities” (19), Brian looks sadly and longingly from a distance at Jordan and Angela happily walking hand-in-hand.Ī subtle moment suggesting his love comes in the pilot episode. We generally learn Brian Krakow (Devon Gummersall) is secretly in love with Angela through his own statements - particularly in “Life of Brian” (11), in which he does the first-person narration, a change of perspective from Angela. They’ve been next-door neighbors since they were 5 and could broadly be called friends, but they aren’t tight like Dawson and Joey.
While the Angela-Jordan relationship is directly portrayed, Angela-Brian is subtle enough that it could be missed if you had the show on in the background rather than actively viewing it.
