You know what I'm doing tonight, chips, dip and FailWhale, leggo! Thanks for two eps of Buffy, I am going to dive in, you made me very happy tonight. :P

I just finished 509. Great reaction! I had to pause at "it DAWNED on her" lol. But I wanted to add a big kudos to Kristine Sutherland (Joyce) for how she came through so much in this ep. She really brings such a grounded, familial tone to Buffy (character and show), and she's the MVP of this ep.

Magus

Oof that calling Buffy fat line didnt age well

(re:510) Oh, I forgot how much I hated Xander sticking his nose into Buffy's relationship like that with so much projection. He actually said that if what Riley wants is something she doesn't have, then let him go. SHE WAS. Stop spinning around her very emotional head like that. Riley had no right to issue that ultimatum. Ugh.

I came here to see if anybody said this. LOL I remember when I was a kid watching this episode thinking Xander was so right. Maybe it was because the writers wrote the scene to make it seem like it, but he wasn't. What gives Xander, of ALL people the right to talk to Buffy like that, especially giving his horrible history with women? And seeing Buffy running after him? Double ugh.

Morgan Le Fay

Xander has always overstepped and been way too invested in Buffy’s relationships. His obsession with Angel (resulting in B killing him as the spell worked) showed that.

I see what you're saying, but that didn't bother me because of the cause. It was the tumor making her say that. I'm not an expert on brain tumors, and I'm not a medical professional, but I have heard about certain conditions that make people say weird or even really hurtful things. She couldn't help it anymore than she could help what she said at the start, that line, "I'd rip it in half and stick it in bed with me." Of course, if tumors can't do that, then I guess it's shitty writing. EDIT: I said that wrong. It did bother me, but in the sense that I was worried about Joyce and felt bad for Buffy, but it didn't upset me the way it would have if she was in her right mind and was just trying to be mean.

Brent Justice

Just watched episode 9, before I watch ep 10 just wanted to say R.E. Dawn, that Dawn is in school, so she must have official records, birth certificate, medical records, social security number, the works, in order to be part of normal life. They sure conjured up an entire life for her. This episode is a bit weird with the whole alien concept, but then you learn that it's really just a demon, that came from above, since demons inhabit different dimensions it isn't that weird then when you think about it. Giles said they enter our world through different means. Otherwise, sure does seem to be a lot of crazy going around, wonder what could be causing that. And for Joyce recognizing the Dawn revelation, I always find that scene so heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time, her asking Buffy to watch Dawn as her own makes me tear up each time. And Riley, he's descending fast, heh. Ok, on to ep 10 now.

Brent Justice

Watching episode 10 now, I just wanted to chime in real quick again, I find it interesting how Buffy's whole past has changed because of Dawn. Dawn says that Buffy used to chase her around the house as a kid with chop sticks in her mouth like a vampire, running after while she was saying "I'm a vampire..." but in the original history, Buffy didn't even tell her mom, her mom found out in Season 2 remember, when Buffy ran away, that's when she knew originally. So that whole moment of time has changed. Since we know memories can affect who we are, our personality, how we act in the future, learning from our mistakes, it makes me wonder if Buffy even remembers all that anymore? Does she still remember exactly how all that went down back then? Or are those memories now altered, meaning Buffy is now literally a different person, cause she's be acting differently not having those memories? Makes you think.

Brent Justice

Ok, finished episode 10, thank you for the reaction. I maybe have an unpopular opinion? But I agree with a lot of what Riley was saying. I truly believe Buffy was not giving him her all, her whole self. She may have thought that way on the surface, but she really wasn't deep down, not like she gave to Angel. Buffy did treat Riley like he was convenient, handy when he needs him, otherwise, pushes him off to the side, not a true partnership. When Riley was talking about the vamps "needing" him, that's the way it should feel with your partner, and he didn't get that from Buffy. I really think it's kind of obvious. Buffy may have only realized that at the end, but by then it was too late. I think Riley was extremely patient. However, Riley's mistake was not talking about this sooner, he never had a conversation with her about it, never brought it up, and never let her know what he's feeling until he gave her an ultimatum, which is another mistake he should have never have done. So they both are at fault to be clear, but they didn't communicate with each other very well about it. That's why I think Xander's ending is so important and impactful, he realized he needed to communicate this with Anya, and that's what partners should do.

Perhaps, but he was right in this one, he said all the right things, and made Buffy realize her mistake. It's what best friends do. He proved he's a friend, and that will tighten their relationship. /shrug

Riley's character aged so poorly. I remember when I first saw this as a teenager and thought Xander had so many good points. Now it comes off as so bad that it's one time I have to just not acknowledge how badly the Xander character was written in this instance. Riley has a near pathological need for the person he's with to be dependent on him. He actually sees the relationship Angel and Buffy had as something desirable. In reality Buffy and Angel's relationship was a very immature/teenage romance. Full of passion, burning bright, but ultimately doomed because lasting relationships are built on trust, not need or dependency. HAD Buffy gotten to Riley in time and said stay, it wouldn't have been long before he was asking her to proclaim her need for him again in some way. I don't think his character would've been able to handle a partner of equal or higher ability. He wanted someone who always relied on him for something.

Buffy and Riley's relationship was over by this point, and it was obvious Buffy didn't love him as much as he loved her, so I don't really like her chasing after him. Also, it sucks when you feel shut out, but what Buffy has been going through recently is insane (and it's all on top of the Slayer stuff) and she has clearly been trying to not crack, and Riley just doesn't seem to understand that. He wants her to run to him, throw herself into his arms and weep, but all she's thinking of right now is getting through another day for her mom and Dawn. Riley and Buffy just didn't fit by this point and it's honestly better he left so she didn't have another thing to worry about on top of everything else.

Also, whatever way you slice it, "I've been doing this terrible thing and you need to process that immediately and decide on what we're going to do or I'm out" is a shitty move and for me is when I realised that this was done.

Briony Addey

I really have a problem with the 'both sides' argument with this break up. While it might be understandable that Riley gets so in his head about this (he's young, and quite emotionally immature) it's not defendable, and it certainly doesn't mean Buffy's done anything wrong. Buffy has loved Riley and treated him with respect and compassion. She enjoys his company, likes having sex with him, treats him kindly and considers his needs and feelings. That all sounds healthy for a 20 year old. He, on the other hand, seems to feel a need that isn't being met, feels something is missing. Instead of facing that, and examining it, he cheats and lies. Then issues a weird ultimatum and acts like he's been short changed somehow, and like she's been doing him wrong. Ugh. I'm so glad she didn't catch up to him. Xander being the mouthpiece for this idea that Buffy is responsible for Riley's feelings and insecurities, is a chef's kiss of this trope of toxic masculinity. Gotta wonder what's going on in the writers room here. Do they know that Xander is being a dick, and reflecting Riley's dickishness here? Baffling.

Ray Nothnagel

Regarding the conversation about stars between Willow and Tara (that you said you'd had a similar conversation), it's not actually true. Most of the stars we can see with the naked eye are within about 5000 light-years or so, and stars generally last billions of years. So being generous, maybe 0.1% of the stars you can see have gone nova while their light was en route to Earth. Now if you're looking at another galaxy (say, Andromeda), those are billions of light-years away and most of -those- stars will have died in the interim. But you can't really make out individual stars that far with the naked eye.

Ooohhh man I cant wait for Angel this week! I'm just gonna sit at my computer and refresh til it's here... if it takes days, it takes days. But it's all I want right now.

In regards to Riley - Buffyverse goes hard on character assassination. Oz was amazing- from when he said "who is that girl" when he saw Willow on Halloween to "panicking" at graduation. Then BOOM - Cheater.

That pretty much was a cast photo for season 5. The one on the box set was almost identical. Kristine Sutherland is amazing in this episode! Her and Sarah work so well together and it shows. A lot of people slam Joyce for being a bad mother but this episode shows how great she is, once she figures it out she doesn't stop for a second to question it, the most important thing to her is that this girl she thinks of as a daughter is protected by the strongest person she knows.

Dani Dekay

Everyone has their thoughts on Riley, but the biggest problem for me was his inability to get over his unfounded insecurities with Angel. Like how many damn times are you going to act like a child for no reason? She had given him zero reason to not trust her and what does he automatically think? That she ran off and cheated on him with Angel? Huge red flag. Then he pulled it again with Dracula. Wanted to get back at her for letting Dracula bite her? Glad to see him go.
