6.20: Villians

[Annette]

WOW H2 your descriptions are great. What else can I add to this? I did not like Tara very much to begin with but she warmed to me or me to her (whatever). She will be missed by me. Willow was fantastic, loved it when she 'read' the Dark Arts books by emerging her hands into them. Wish I could read that quick. Warren was kinda funny when trying to boast he'd killed the slayer when in fact Buffy was OK. The vampires in the bar made me laugh when telling him that Willow was on the warpath, the look on his face. Hahaha!!!!! Also Spike, what is happening with him? Is he trying to find a way to remove his chip with the aid of the demon in parts unknown?

Glad to see Buffy trusting Spike with Dawn.

What a way to go at the end, what with the bullet and from what I could gather being turned inside out. Ewwwwwwwww!!!!!!!! Willows Bored now!!!!! was brilliant. Watch out, watch out Willows about!!!!!!!!

"Bored now." is what vamipre-Willow says before she hurls Percy across the Bronze in #50 Doppelgängerland. In fact, she was most dangerous when she was bored.

How about that Highlander II? Do the writers get points for continuity on that one?

What ever you do, don't let evil Willow get bored!

Yes - they get points for continuity on that - and it's double continuity - b/c Vamp Willow said it in "The Wish" too - so, ok, Marti gets a point - but only one.

And I *so* agree - never let evil Willow get bored!

Have a very Buffy Christmas!

UPN is broadcasting this episode on Christmas Eve at 9pm following "Normal Again".

If you're tired of Xmas cheer this is the show for you.

Remember watch out for the part where Willow gets bored.

Ok, I've just been watching this episode again, and something occured to me.

It's always been said that Buffy died twice, right? In "Prophecy Girl" and in "The Gift". But when Buffy is at the hospital, and hooked up to the machines, her heart stops, cos the line on the beepy machine goes flat (like my technical jargon?). So wouldn't that technically count as dying? After all, if stopping breathing is counted as dying, you'd think her heart stopping would definately count.

What do you think? Comments, opinions, anyone?

watched it tonight too... I also noticed that but if you noticed when willow entered the room all electronics went goofy, maybe that's why the heart monitor flatlined...(sorry just know my medicine a bit)

Interesting point though, merits further discussion

yeah i just rewatched this today, and thought the same thing.

But if that wasn't it - both Prophecy Girl and the Gift and Once More with Feeling are before this ep so they wouldn't be able to include her third death. I can't remember if anyone states she's died twice after this episode. (probably though as they seem to like it )

Generally, to actually declare someone dead though the heart and breathing (and neural activity) have to have been stopped for 2 minutes so would they split second that she flatlined even count?

In the S7 ep "Dirty Girls", Xander says that "This girl has died, two times, and she's still standing". But on quizzes and things, that's always the answer too.

I'm not gonna pretend to know anything about medicine (except what I've seen on Casualty and ER ). So maybe it doesn't count because it was so quick. But, to be fair, we don't know how long she was out in "Prophecy Girl" before Xander and Angel found her.

Steffi has a good point too - maybe it was just Willow's magic that caused the flatline, rather than Buffy's heart stopping.
