Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.
you know what the say about the road to a hell dimension . . .
Oh, absolutely. That's what makes it an interesting story, you know? Willow absolutely believed that she was Doing Right. Even when she did uncontestable evil to Tara, she believed she was in the right.
Did Buffy die in the portal or when she hit the ground? It sounds flippant, but it makes a difference in the "she died in the portal" thing.

How would they know in either case? Looks like she died in the portal though, what with the being wracked painfully by supernatural energies.

Where's CSI? Oh, wait, wrong network.

Especially with the sureptitious burial. Not a lot of examination time, I'll wager.
Why would you presume she'd have to tamper with their minds to get them to go along? It really doesn't seem out of character for Xander and Tara to defer to her in Giles' absence.Did you read the whole thing, Hec? I don't think she put the whammy on their minds. I don't necessarily think she would have had to manipulate them *in order to* get them to go along, but she did manipulate them, seemingly in order to ensure they kept going along.
I saw the text and she was manipulative. I'm not assessing her motives, just giving a (text-based) reading of her actions. I'm not presuming.
She withheld information, like where and how she got the Vino de Madre, that she knew what it was, and what it actually was. She (and Tara, Xander, and Anya) also purposefully kept Giles, Spike and Dawn in the dark. She may have actually lied about the Vino de madre. I can't remember if it involved an outright lie, or just that she withheld information.

Crossover!! CSI:Sunnydale. The neck ruptures could get redundant, though.

yeah, but if would be fun seeing them come up with new and interesting explanations. Remember the barbecue fork?
I still think that a fun Angel episode or bit would have been a demon psychologist. And I mean a psychologist who counsels demons, none of this Tish M'gev business, just a regular office with a receptionist, etc.

It's always going to come back to "PCP; gang-related" though.
