Ep. 20: Mikael struggles with angel duties while Noelle experiences a nightmare and an intangible angel.

20

Noelle has a strange nightmare. At the same time across the street, Mikael is studying how to be an angel. Raphael praises him, but reminds him of the consequences of becoming an angel--namely leaving earth behind, and never seeing or being able to interact with your loved ones again. After saying this, Raphael disappears, and Mikael searches, but cannot find him. Instead, Mikael finds Noelle at the park, and becomes perturbed when she begins interacting with Raphael, as he can neither see nor hear the angel. Still, he tries to play it off as if nothing is wrong in front of Noelle, only blowing up at Raphael when she leaves to go make them jasmine jelly. But, despite his outburst, Raphael does not reappear, and Mikael is left completely alone. Unable to take it any longer, Mikael packs his things and leaves the apartment, telling Raphael that he does not plan to return. However, just as Mikael is leaving, Noelle returns with a gigantic plate of jasmine jelly, and Raphael finally re-appears to Mikael. As Noelle (and her family) are running toward them with the jelly, Papa slips, causing everyone to fall. Raphael runs to catch Noelle, but she falls right through him, revealing the fact that he is intangible to her (a fact which seems to be a tremendously sore spot for him). Back in their apartment, Mikael and Raphael discuss Mikael's uncertainty with becoming an angel, along with his lifelong assignment of protecting Noelle, and how much that means to him.
