Right after making us develop a grudging fondness for her.
We do see his dad, lit from behind, in Restless.
Does he ever appear for the wedding? I don't remember.
Or, Willow's Mom seems like an option. Whatever happened to her, post-MOO?
She's mentioned to Kennedy while they're talking about Tara.
Hey, can we kill Kennedy?

ETA: Or maybe Riley comes back to die at Buffy's feet. And infect her with a speechifying disease.
How about Willy the Snitch?
We never found out what happened to Dru, right? Or Oz, for that matters.
Tim's my favourite Buffy scribe, right behind Rob Thomas and Russel T. Davis.
Keep the Tim away from the Oz.
