And Andrew being startled, then slowly putting his arms around Xander as tears welled up in his own eyes.

Sorry, I can't take that any further without saying things I really shouldn't be saying right now.
As for the age thing, I would imagine that there's an age limit up and downwards. I don't know why, and showing an old lady fighting a mugger or a baby throwing her bowl across a football field would have been nice. But maybe the spell worked by latching onto a hormone released only by women near or capable of periods or something. I dunno.
Oh yeah, what I've been meaning to say all day: Kennedy's persistent state of living still bugs me, but in their last scenes I started to buy W/K, the least hot lesbians on TV. The secret is for them not to talk. Or touch each other. And be at least 20 feet away from each other at all times. Those have been their best scenes.
And oh yeah, if Sunnydale=Santa Barbara, somebody should have remembered the existence of the Pacific Ocean. But flooding the pit as well as sinking it would have been too much, and would have thwarted the escape of our heroes, unless they'd hotwired Chitty Chitty Bang Bus.
Calli, Bavarian ubervamp slash? I'm shocked!
Wow! Every time I think about that insecure little girl at the plate suddenly no longer being insecure, and how far she's gonna hit that ball, I just get all teary.

Months later, Xander finds himself thinking of that moment much more frequently than he can explain. Wonders if Willow actually did "gay him up" as per request.
Seriously, I can't take that little baseball girl. I was that little girl at the plate.
Stop with the baseball girl! I'm at work!
Baseball girl was the BESTEST.
Except for Vi.
Damn you, wee Jon, for having Dibs. VI SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE LESBIAN!!! CAN YOU IMAGINE HOT VI ON WILL ACTION????

From the NYT article:
although her wardrobe remained as spiffy as ever, her soul was battered.
every time she staked a villain, somewhere in the TV ether you could hear all of the cowboys' long-dead girlfriends cheering.
Kinda sums it up .... ay?
