I’m cosplaying as a vampire this video. I definitely didn’t fuck up the lighting

"I need to be touched." Lexi, HR has talked to you about this. I mean, if there was an HR department, I'm pretty sure they would have talked to you about this....

You wouldn't have wanted to stop watching Buffy considering how the last episode ended, with Buffy kicked out of her own house. I'm sure that would have been on your mind constantly.

Ron Fehr

Buffy had the right idea about going back to the vinyard. The only flaw in her plan was bringing the Slayerettes along. Things worked out better when she went by herself. All she needed to do was outmaneuver Caleb. Had anyone else come along (except for Faith), they would have died. I loved Spike's speech in the episode. It was just the pep talk that Buffy needed.

Don't worry, the next 2 episodes are some of my favorite in all of the Buffyverse. But I do agree the Slayerettes were kinda mishandled.

Yay Lexi! We are getting into the final episodes! (sob sob...) I am very proud of Faith in this one. She got that great idea of kidnapping a Bringer, and then she once and for all stood up against the Mayor. He is always fun to see, but he has always been manipulating her in the worst possible way. That Buffy/Spike scene might be one of the sweetest moments in the entire show. Loved it. You are spot on about the Slayerettes. We just don't care about them. A lot of people dislike this season because of them, I just choose to ignore them because I find this season to be one of the greatest to rewatch. We had Anya flashbacks, conversations with dead people, Andrew coming back and with his own fairytale episode, Giles coming back, Faith coming back. And The First with some cool cameos (that end scene in episode one is epic!). Yeah I love this season. Roll on the final two episodes!!

I remember watching Shan from AfterShowReacts when she was reacting to this episode (or it might have been the next one). Someone had sent her an exact replica of the weapon that Buffy found at the vinyard.

Wait, I just realised something. Caleb says the bringers probably pant - but the one they caught had his tongue ripped out. So they pant without a tongue? How does that work? Such fun to see the mayor again. Harry Groener is so good in that role. The three original potentials were Kennedy, Molly, and Annabelle. Annabelle ran away and was killed early on, but Molly is one of the two who was killed by Caleb in Dirty Girls.

I always kind of wonder about the barrier around homes that keeps vampires uot. It might have been (slightly) interesting (to nerds like myself) to explore the mythos of that and how it came to be. I envision some great sorcerer or a group of mystics cast a powerful spell to keep vampires out of homes, as they were the greatest threat, given their ability to turn humans and grow their ranks exponentially. I have a theory that there's a, I guess a psychic connection between a person and their home; thus allowing them to grant individual vampires access, but not automatically all. When they first move into a space, it ostensibly takes time for them to make that connection; which explains why the vampires in the season 4 premiere could get into Buffy's dorm to steal her stuff, but Angel and Spike later needed an invite. Hotels/motels are public accommodations and don't need an invite, but when Fred adopts her space at the Hyperion and it's no longer an official hotel, Angel subsequently needs an invite. And now in this episode, the owner of the house Buffy goes to has *presumably* given up claim to the house, leaving town and never intending to return; thus removing the barrier from the house completely. Hopefully it's not a case of him getting killed as consequence of Buffy kicking him out...

Stargazer1682

What the Mayor-First says also has strong implications for what Beljoxa's Eye said about Buffy "living again" creating an opportunity for the First to exploit and attack the Slayer line. The First can now become Buffy - not just look like her, *be* her. A living, active Slayer. It can appear as all of the dead Slayers, and always could, but presumably it's never been able to become a *living* Slayer.

Stargazer1682

Wait, did Robin say it was his mother "right down to her perfume"? The First is intangible, but it can smell??? 😒

Stargazer1682

I 100% agree about the Potentials. There are too many, and as I'm sure I've said for other reactions, it takes away from them and the main cast. Too many people, too little focus on any one of them. And I feel like the one who suffered most is Dawn. At the start of the season she was training, finally part of the Scoobies. She even got her own version of Willow and Xander in the season opener, only for us to never see them again. She kicked ass in the tunnel in the season 6 finale, she held her own better against the Bringers than Willow, Xander or Anya when they came for Spike. Then the fucking Potentials show up and back on the back burner Dawn went. At the very least they should have made her one of the Potentials for real, to bring her back into the main story. But nooooo.... 🙄 And Lexi makes an excellent point about it undermining the urgency. I think if it had just been a single Potential, right - it would have sharpened the focus on this one character's importance to the future of the Slayer line, and also kind of revisit the idea of "the chosen one" and what it means for this girl to be singled out. Especially if they believe she's the last Potential, then they know she's the next to be called; and it would make more sense for the First to go after Buffy and Faith now. And if she had been like, 10 - we take for granted that Buffy was called, or at least found by her first Watcher, at 15 (who knows how old she actually was when she was called). But we don't know just how young a Slayer might be; especially if there aren't any other Potentials. Buffy would certainly be even more protective, and they wouldn't expect her to have to fight yet. And maybe Buffy, Faith and Giles can't manage to connect with her, but Dawn does; fulfilling the sort of Junior Watcher role she's adotped.

Ron Fehr

I may have gotten a little attached to some of the early Potentials, and I think it would have been better to just have those few. Too many, as you said. I guess Dawn becoming a Potential was too predictable, which was why the writers never made her one.

Michael Sullivan

I will respectfully be the voice of disagreement here. The purpose of Caleb killing the slayerettes in the earlier episode was not to make us grieve for them, but to show how vulnerable they all are and lay a heavy burden on Buffy. Had we been closer to them, it would have drawn the emotional focus away from Buffy and onto characters that are ultimately inconsequential. The point of the season is to show Buffy grappling with becoming a leader, not just the head of a bigger group of friends. Personally, I'm glad we don't have more characters to care about. There's already Buffy, Willow, Xander, Giles, Spike, Anya, Dawn, Faith, Robin, Andrew, and Kennedy. I don't have the emotional bandwidth for anyone else.

I had my tongue pierced for a few years. (I got it done in 2006). I ended up having to take it out though because the jewelry was rubbing my gums and causing them to recede (which is really bad because your gums help protect your teeth). I still miss it sometimes though. I was never really a Spuffy shipper until this episode. Spike standing up for and being there for Buffy is so sweet. Their relationship has really come a long way. I'll always be a Bangel shipper for life though, but now that Spike has a soul, I do think he can be the kind of guy that Buffy needs.

cosmotron

This is a good episode, but I have to admit, as well written and acted as the Spike/Buffy stuff is, I've always felt a little weird about it? I think it's because so much of S6 Spike was him telling Buffy that no one but him truly understood her. Obviously that was a soulless Spike, but to come around to S7 on the heels of Buffy being kicked out of her own house by all her friends and family...it kinda feels like the show is telling us that yes, actually, Spike is the only one that really understands Buffy. I don't know. That always felt a bit...weird and icky to me. All that aside, I do like this episode and the buildup to the finale. The ending approaching always makes me emotional.

Ron Fehr

While there were too many Slayerettes now to really care much about them, it was kind of necessary to have quite a few, to kind of demonstrate the massive number of possible Slayers throughout the world, and out of them, only one gets chosen.

Mr MidLife

Life goals: Find someone who can make you feel as loved as Spike makes Buffy feel in this episode.

Robin Davies

You’re right that there are too many potentials to care about. Personally, I’d be happy if the ones who persistently failed to pronounce “parliamentary” in this episode got the chop. Why didn’t Tony Head coach them, as he did with James Marsters? Anyone watching Season 2 would find it hard to believe that further down the line Buffy would seek solace with Spike after being rejected by Willow, Xander and Giles!

Ron Fehr

Of the original three Potentials that arrived, Kennedy was actually my least favorite, and yet she is the last of them to still be alive. Oh well, we can't have everything we want.

Ron Fehr

In an early Angel episode, Faith wanted to apologize for the body switch, but Buffy would not let her get the words out. The only time that I didn't like what Buffy did. But you're right, Lexi. I don't think that she's completely over it. She kind of brought it up during the argument with the rest of the group.

the amount of reactors i’ve watched go “i could never imagine liking spike and buffy again” (suuper fair after that scene obviously) while i’m kicking my feet up and giggling going “just wait for touched…” it is genuinely the most beautiful speech i think i’ve ever heard. he does know her, he knows all of her - who she is Now. and he loves her not despite but because of all those things. he’s her partner who she can always rely on (super unfortunate that she was right when she told giles spike was the only person she could trust. :/ ) he wants to be there for her and give her what she says she needs, not what he thinks she needs (pretend we don’t know what i’m bitter about here) AND he can still make her laugh at the end of the day. she’s everything, he’s just ken - but damn if he’s not kenough.

chelsea

i love how we forget that we’re watching a show from the late 90’s - early 2000’s and then someone casually drops the r slur 😳
