Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't recall anything that woud suggest that the vineyard is near the HS

I don't think Faith is at the HS. She's at the outskirts of town, I assumed under the vinyard.

Didn't they go in through the school, though? I thought that was the whole plan. Apparently I missed something.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I though faith was in the Vineyard, too. That Faith was coming from underground and Buffy from above ground.

Huh. I guess I just assumed they headed for the school - wasn't that part of why they ousted Buffy, that she wanted to take them back to the vineyard?

Off to rewatch.

OK, Faith says they were going to the arsenal. Which would be where?

ETA

Bringer!Andrew says something about farthest edge of town, so that must be it. Thank god, because this was really bugging me.

(And I think Andrew actually had a point about the danger to him in Giles suddenly slashing the throat of the bringer.)

hip deep in pie

I wasn't entirely clear where Buffy and Faith were in relation to each other either. For a while I thought they were looking at the same thing.

I thought the first was going to try to have sex with Caleb when she was talking about being envious

I totally went to that scary place too.

It kind of goes against the whole "The Slayer gets strength through her friends" theme that's been a fundamental premise of the series.

But it supports the season two thing where she still has herself when everything else is lost.

Angelus: Now that's everything, huh? No weapons... No friends... No hope.

Buffy closes her eyes and steels herself for whatever's coming.

Angelus: Take all that away... and what's left?

He draws the sword back and thrusts it directly at her face. With lightning-fast reflexes she swings up with both arms and catches the blade between the palms of her hands. She opens her eyes and meets his.

Buffy: Me.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I was thinking of that too, Sue, on my way home today.

Thanks for all the fish.

Chiming in late to say that the Willow/Kennedy sex really disgusted me. And it's not because I hate Willow - it's because I hate Kennedy.

Our wings are not tired.

The sex didn't bother me because I believe that this is a sign that Kennedy will DIE!

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

I'm hoping that Willow was right to worry about losing control. I was kind of baffled by them having sex when the beginning of the episode seemed to be saying; "You are completely right to dislike Kennedy." In fact, I didn't really dislike her until this episode. Grrr.

It hadn't occurred to me until last night that they'd not had sex, really.
