I saw it, and quite liked, though perhaps a bit anti climactic. When a character I think is pretty cool, all things considered, schemes away like Jim Profit on the good crack, and then gets put down like a dog in the road in not much more time than it takes to say it, I find it perhaps a little disappointing.
I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Who was put down? I think ME has allowed themselves plenty of room to have him back as early as next episode, or as late as never, should they so desire.

I'm standing by ' put down '. Doesn't mean one has to stay there, but still...

Ahh. I'd associated that with sick animals and death of the non-supernatural and permanent sort.

Well, so did I, but given the nature of the show, not that permanent. I guess I should've said having one's
Carefully laid out scheme (Look at me, this is my scheming face) put down like a dog in the road, which it most certainly was, was a bit unsatisfying. It didn't even seem that difficult.
All that said though, Harm Vs. Eve was pretty great.

Spoiler shortcut is great, but I think I spent yesterday bolding what I meant to hide.

'I didn't ask'. A line straight from Sunnydale. So very mean.

That was wonderous. Although, I think the Harmony scene competes well with it.
