Kennedy had a good line. After Rona (?) was talking about the stake being the best weapon and said "there nothing like holding a piece of wood", Kennedy said "you lost me there."
That was a nice touch.

She used inductive reasoning and an Ad Hominem argument. And then she bit me!
Andrew is not a mushroom. Andrew is tofu.
That is all.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Watched. Am here.
I liked it, because it made me feel tense. Plus they copped to confusion in The Gift. Metatext like that pisses some off, but I'm good with it.
Yah, yah, I knew Dawn was going to run off. She's always been that kind of dumb. I knew she wasn't going to die. But it wasn't until terribly close to the reveal that I realized that the chick wasn't evil of any sort.
Logistically, all sorts of issues. Locked doors unlocking, vamp waiting at the school for what? Roll call?
Buffy's lecturing -- I don't like it, but I feel it appropriate. The B/S tension? I'm with those that like the SiTs picking up on it.
And I have gone on record with hating SMG's okay. But let me repeat. Bugfuck, it drives me.

Andrew is not a mushroom. Andrew is tofu.
RahRah, I had that same thought.

How was the rest of the CBC radio show? How long was it? Hope I can find time to listen to it this weekend.
Also, as one of 10 people that actually likes Buffy, I have to say I'm not too enamored with the way she's being written this season.

Candy, it was an hour long, and it was pretty good. A general overview of the show, it's signifcance and it hit all the highlights of the past seasons.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I liked Andrew a lot this episode -- I really got the impression that Willow and Xander were just aching to let go and totally geek out with him.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
I liked the episode, but a lot of it was relief that Dawn wasn't one of the pre-Slayers. I liked the scene with Xander a lot, and I've really been enjoying Andrew. I liked how his "womanhood" speech both freaked Xander out and demonstrated his tofu-ness. And I'll be pleased to see more of what's-her-name (Amanda?). She's great. "I'm really tired of everybody having such low self-esteem."
