It's the moment in the Jossverse that originally inspired the Holy Shit Quotient.

I thought that was the people cellar, not Darla getting all vampired again. t edit But that's probably because I remember the people cellar as being such a huge Holy Shit moment. I'm all Steph-centric. How dare I do that?

Figuring out that it was Darla in the box mere seconds before they showed her is one of the highlights of my viewing experience - the timing was perfect so I could feel all clever but still get the awesome shock of the revelation as it was happening on TV.

I love those little moments, Matt. Where you suddenly get this creeping sensation that you know what's about to come and it's such a glorious joy to be proven correct.

I suppose in this crowd, I shouldn't be embarassed by noticing that the barmaid was Christina Hendricks by thinking, "wow, that one is boob-tacular! ...waitaminnit..."

oops--wrong thread!

Random trivia! I met Drew Goddard tonight, and I mentioned loving all his work and started listing episodes that came to mind, like "Lies My Parents Told Me." Since I brought that one up, he told me that the scene with Spike and his newly turned mother had originally been much tamer, as he'd written it, with, I guess, only the conflict about having to kill her. But Joss gave him the note that the scene had to be about Spike being a pussy, and his mom basically asking him to fuck her.

Which is why he loves Joss, because who else would give such a fucked-up note?

NAUTILUS!

I may at one point have understood that reference.

Now is not that point.
