[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Oh, Edain, I liked that part too. And the "Ciao." "Ciao," of course. But it couldn't make up for the rest.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I thought it was extraordinarily silly, and I laughed like a loon.

If I only had a brain...

I kept expecting the Italian head of W&H to do something sinister and interesting. She disappointed me.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I definitely thought she was interesting.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well, IIRC her cleavage was "interesting."

She was a gun that was brought on in the first act and never fired by the fall of the curtain in the fourth act.

No quotes about it. I was interested in her cleavage. But I was more interested in her CiaoBella!-ness, in contrast to the W&H executives we'd previously seen.

No, she served her purpose, showing that the American dunderheads would cowboy in and mess everything up when she only needed a few bribes here and there to take care of business as usual.

So did I.

Premise of The Inside, is what I want to know. The article made me go, "Huh?" but then I see it's wrong.

This is me, and the Burkle b-story was a nice gut-punch counterpoint. As with Hec, my biggest problem with it was its placement in the season.
