I will never ever as long as I live get over the sadness in Crowley's voice when he says "I understand. I think I understand a whole lot better than you do."
It's why I will never believe that Crowley walked away from this argument thinking that Aziraphale didn't love him or whatever. He knows exactly what's happening here, that Heaven did what they're best at and manipulated the fuck out of this whole situation and got their hooks back into Aziraphale. He knows.

That certain night The night we met There was magic abroad in the air There were angels dining at the Ritz And a nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
I may be right I may be wrong But I'm perfectly willing to swear That when you turned and smiled at me A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
The streets of town Were paved with stars It was such a romantic affair And as we kissed and said goodnight A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square
I know 'cause I was there That night in Berkeley Square
I compared the choruses in the full version of the song and THAT'S the only one that has any kind of piano/orchestral swell immediately afterward like it does in the show.
OW MY FEELS.
And it ALMOST lines up perfectly with when Aziraphale looks at the car, if you were to start from the beginning of the song, but not quite. Close enough for me. x'D
Also hm, Season One for the first bit, Season Two for the second, and Season Three for the third bit? Give my boys their streets paved with stars and kisses goodnight, Neil!
The Ineffable Husbands cannot have nice things even in the Sims (yes, my coping mechanism after S2).
They had only had perfect dates and everything was going smoothly and life was good and then Crowley wanted to propose to Aziraphale...
And Aziraphale, meanwhile, wanted to break up with Crowley. For some inexplicable reason.
So anyway. Ineffable Divorce 2.0.
"You're in danger. […] You're in trouble and we're not leaving you on your own."
Nominations when??? Awards when????? When???? WHEN?!!!!
Aziraphale: We’re not friends. I don’t even like you. It’s over.
Crowley: Fine. I’m leaving. Goodbye forever!
(literally the next day)
Crowley: I’m sorry! I didn’t mean it! I miss you so much! Come with me, let’s run away together!
Aziraphale: I forgive you! But I can’t come with you.
Crowley: Fine, I’m leaving and I’m never even going to THINK about you again!
(literally that same afternoon)
Crowley: He’s not answering his phone. He needs me! Wait - fire - he’s dead! I can’t smell him! Dead forever and ever! There’s no point in going on. I’m going to drink whiskey until the world ends and I DIE.
Aziraphale: You alright there mate?
Crowley: ;_; m y l o v e ;_; where are you i will come to you no matter where you are i would destroy galaxies to protect you
Aziraphale: I need a body. Too bad I can’t use yours.
Crowley: NGK
Aziraphale: Just get to Tadfield air base.
Crowley: I would and will drive through a literal wall of fire to be with you. Anything is possible when we’re together.
(literally like an hour later)
Crowley: That’s it, it’s over, end of the world, we’re all going to die, goodbye reality, goodbye everything, this is the END of ALL THINGS it is LITERALLY SATAN here to kill us
Aziraphale: Fix it or I’ll never talk to you again.
Crowley: * M * I * R * A * C * L * E *
