Breakup was so traumatic it had Crowley driving the speed limit

For me, something felt very, very wrong in the Job scene. Just didn't seem like Crowley to push Aziraphale so hard to try something he expressed discomfort with. He immediately backed off when Aziraphale was uncomfortable with the alcohol just moments before. The music when Aziraphale accepted the meat felt straight up ominous, coupled with the weird way Crowley was eyeing him. Then cut to Aziraphale being so messy with eating half the ox after being 'tempted' was also really disconcerting. He's so prim and proper usually. I honestly hope this is an "inaccurate" memory. Plus, I really like the idea of Aziraphale independently being curious about creature comforts and just trying them out on his own.

Couple of updates to this one for my own peace of mind.

I have likely confused which hand was missing on the clock. Pretty sure the hour hand disappeared rather than the minute hand. During episode 2, when the second Job memory ends and Crowley is gone, either the time is 6:30pm or the hour hand is straight up missing. Could go either way.

The following day in episode 3 when Muriel visits, the hour hand is missing from the main clock pretty clearly, but the minute hand is somewhere around the 51-52 minute mark.The "other clock" I mentioned from episode 6 can very briefly be seen behind Crowley when he walks into the shop with his plants and appears to be on a completely different time (4:07-ish?) So it is there, we just hardly ever see it in the shots due to the angle.

In these instances, I'm not sure the specific time matters so much as having a sneaky hint that something is off and time is definitely related.

The Bookshop Clock & Time

I've been taking snapshots of the clock in Aziraphale's bookshop throughout season 2 and it's been so strange. All the references to time throughout the season got me thinking. "Too late" "I need more time" "I'm late". Crowley mentions a Richard Curtis film about falling in love in the rain. Since just about every media reference this season hits like a sledgehammer when I've looked it up, I decided to check out this one too. Based on a pretty basic google search "About Time" (directed by Richard Curtis) may have such a rain-related scene in it. What jumped out at me was the synopsis though. This movie deals with time travel in order to change events in the protagonist's life. HUH. INTERESTING.

In episode 2, we can see the clock is placed in the 10 o'clock hour when Gabriel starts singing "Every Day". We can still see the clock is in the 10 o'clock hour when the three archangels are in the bookshop. When Crowley and Aziraphale return from the bar to interrogate Gabriel about where he first heard the song, he says that he just heard it "this morning". Seems perfectly fine. He also remembers the "three nice people in the shop just now". Just now? The clock is sitting at like 5:20pm now! We just had a seven hour jump in time! Gabriel has been left unattended in the bookshop! I find myself doubting that he was actually referring to the archangels at all.

Why make the distinction between "this morning" and "just now" when referring to these events? Unlike season one, it seems (although not explicitly stated) that both angelic and demonic entities need an invitation to enter Aziraphale's bookshop. The only non-angelic and non-demonic trio I can think of at this point are the zombies that we got zero resolution on from 1941. What could they have been up to though? Neil Gaiman had such an odd response of "yup" when asked about the current whereabouts of the zombies. Probably the silliest thought I've had about this season and I don't actually think there's enough to conclude a thing at this point. Maybe it's nothing. I still find the comment strange.

Do we have any idea why episode 2 opened with Aziraphale standing in his bookshop puzzled? The episode opens with the Job memory from 2500BC but we have no reason to be looking at it until Gabriel tips him off about it later. Were we supposed to think Aziraphale was pondering this memory before the tip? Why were we shown this memory out of sequence with the present day events?

Also why was a hand missing from the clock in episode 3? The hour hand appears to be sitting at 10 o'clock, in a spot that the minute hand could never overlap. Why is Crowley so cryptic about being too late when he cuts himself off from threatening Gabriel about Aziraphale getting hurt? "It doesn't matter. It's too late for that now. It's always too late." Huh??? Why so bleak?

Then we kick off episode 4 with Aziraphale stating that he's late.

What is the significance of the opposing wall clock behind Aziraphale in episode 6 while the grandfather clock is behind Crowley? This clock is either positioned differently or blocked entirely until this scene, from what I can tell. The white clock face stands out against a rather dark background.

Why doesn't Crowley use his time-stop ability at any other point than in the Edinburgh minisode? Why is Aziraphale perfectly blocking the grandfather clock face so many times over the course of the season?

When the Metatron tells Aziraphale they need to leave the bookshop for the final time, Aziraphale looks back to the grandfather clock and seems to stop himself from saying "I need more time".

While I don't have a strong conclusion about these things, I feel like there's just too much going on to ignore. It has to be SOMETHING. If anyone else noticed weird time-related things, feel free to chime in.
