I probably should have titled this post, "Clarence Odbody" or "Clarence Odbody, AS2." And just so you know, AS2 does not stand for Amazing Spider-Man 2. It stands for Angel, Second Class. Clarence is George Bailey's guardian angel and one of the first characters we're introduced to in It's a Wonderful Life. He's an angel who doesn't quite have his wings when the movie begins, but he does his beloved and trusted copy of Tom Sawyer. It's the same book he later conveys his profoundly sweet message in by giving it to George just before the bell rings. However cryptic he may be, you have to admit: he was good at his job that time around.
He definitely goes about things in his own way. But he does, in the end, get the job done. :)
