Evil Hand Issues

BUFFY

He had to split.

She snorts with dorkish laughter. Angel just shakes his head reprovingly. She stops after a moment.

See, this was the one off note in the whole finale for me. I can't recall Buffy ever laughing at her own post-kill one-liner jokes before, and it annoyed me, like a one-second script hangnail.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That's kind of why I liked the rest of the lines that were cut. I think Joss was doing a callback to her first season punning, and I think the cut lines sort of made that more palatable.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

On the whole, I'm sorry a lot of what was cut was cut. There was some good stuff in there. Not earth shattering, but good. And Wheee!

Gotta trust Joss on the pacing, and we do have the script.

Heh. We could do a deathmatch of things cut from script before they aired.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Okay:

t inserts most of "corrupt" script from Angel.

I win!

Oh wait. Not Buffy. Damn.

Thanks for all the fish.

ANYA: Oh, sure y'are. You're as stable as the molecules in Mister Fantastic's uniform, am I right?
XANDER: Oh, you just couldn't have picked a worse example.

Oh, damn! I love that. I wish it had stayed. I wanted more Xander and Anya interaction.

Thrive to spite them

I wish that had stayed as well, even if it is a really geeky reference it's a great insight into their relationship.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'm more in love with the cut stuff from Home, but yeah, that was a great line.

Wow. It's over.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Would my suspicion that only Joss was giving Dawn lines like that, and that later get cut? Cause if not, she not only didn't get any decent storylines, but cheated out of being a cool side-line commentator. Damn - I know MT could deliver those kind of lines no problem.

The evil is this way?

I was discussing the finale with a friend after it aired, and we both thought that there was stuff cut from the episode, and it needed 90 minutes. Seeing these cut lines really drives it home.
