Even if it's still a drama about teenagers, the fact that the viewer is aware of Wednesday's hatred for the subgenre makes it a lot more fascinating. We've got the standard "asking a man out to a dance" moment as well as a scenario in which she gets a makeover, which means that we've covered all the bases for this mashup of genres. The character appeared to be rather constant, with the exception of some unpredictable behaviour that occurred on Wednesday.
The shooting of the dance as well as the choreography were both done quite well. The music is effective in contributing to the melancholy mood that has been created here. Because the scene is so characteristically associated with Tim Burton, I feel that everyone should see it more than once. On the other hand, it looked as though the two of them had suddenly acquired a love for one another, which gave the love triangle an artificial and pointless quality. Why were Wednesday so agitated now when it seemed that they had never shown any interest in the subject to begin with? I can understand how a romantic interest may be beneficial to the plot, but Wednesday never gave any indication that she cared about them beyond their function as a plot element. To her, "leading" the men on was never as much of a worry as her humiliation and her dread of hurting Enid. She was more concerned about Enid.
