1. The title of this episode is a play on the title of the well-known Jane Austen novel Sense and Sensibility. 2. Tim Minear says his original idea for the episode was of cops who become so sensitive that they are unable to perform their jobs, but, after discussing the idea with creator Joss Whedon, it became "something far more interesting than what I had originally pitched. Instead of just super sensitive cops, you have people whose emotions are completely on the surface." 3. The final scen...

"Angel" Sense and Sensitivity (TV Episode 1999) cast and crew credits, including actors, actresses, directors, writers and more.
Sense and Sensitivity is about a crime boss implementing mystical sensitivity training on the police force, targeting one Kate Lockley. A bit of a mix here, funny and somewhat amateurish at times, but also character developing.
Angel is affected by a spell that makes him extremely emotionally sensitive and disinclined towards violence. When he realises he needs to resort to violence to rectify the situation, he very apologetically beats up several people.
Angel finds the sensitivity trainer, who lives in a monastery for some reason, and confronts him. He gets the "sensitivity curse" too.
