But being a Power-That-Was, jasmine kind of had a pre-existing hack into the vision warning system. Though I still maintain that the "I'm in love with Angel!" vision could have been a legitimate warning, as the visions normally depicted situations of horror that needed to be averted and Cordy should have recognized that as one of the highest order.
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

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.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
you make a good point. what were the point of visions if not to avoid the Jasmine bullshit?
I always thought the visions were from Jasmine, and were part of the long-con all along: Jasmine manipulated them into the position to create the conditions for her birth into a corporeal form.

So she was the only PTB to be sending visions all along? Did she also somehow orchestrate Doyle's death?

It would make sense, wouldn't it? Doyle dies heroically, passes the visions to Cordelia, who then acts as the "mother" to Jasmine.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
That just makes the Jasmine retcon even less palatable to me.
Especially for a show which is ostensibly about defining your morality by your choices.
But they were just puppets.

It makes sense, but it also makes me sad that every good deed they ever did would have a taint of evil to it.
