My bad.
Sorry.
I didn't like Spike's hair.
And, yeah, why not kill Lawson as soon as he saw what the leverage was?
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.
Buffy ,'Potential'
Atlantic Canadian Monday Madness
[NAFDA] We used to get Buffy the day before everyone else, now we get Angel a week after everyone else. And Firefly every Monday!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The (weakly maintained) justification was that causing a ruckus might jolt them, and the razor sharp wire'd kill them before Angel could reach.

I think that Angel could take a ruckus out of the room (through the glass, as we did see) or make it short...
You did say weak, have to agree with that.

Which, as I said, was dependant on all of them getting captured with ridiculous ease in the first place. I also think it might've at least looked more effective if they weren't all in a little row. Spread out, with some tripwires strung to the chair bases, maybe.

Trust you to have the better evil plan.

OK, my real evil plan would be to gun for that Hellmouth in Cleveland that nobody pays any attention to.

Roll 3 d6. On a 1 or 2, you live.
Yeah, I thought the whole thing was a little wonky too. Other than being on the roomiest submarine I've ever seen, the question must be asked:
If the question "You think I'd come in here unarmed with no plan?" is enough to disarm a hero, would baddies really ever take the time to come up with genuinely evil plans?

Trust you to complain about the submarine.

Level with us. You're doing the Dance of Disappointing Episode right now aren't you?

hip deep in pie
Didn't anyone else think it was against Spike's character at the time to obey Angel, and not impulsively try to eat an American?
