But he's going to be Buffy's new sweetie.
I'd like to meet the teachers.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.
Buffy ,'Sleeper'
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!

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
Eeeee! Really, really enjoyed it, especially the return of suspense. Why can they only do suspenseful stuff at the school?
Also, I wonder if Halfrek/Cecily will be explored this season.
Oh, please please please!
I really liked the principal (and by like ...), in particular his line "What, you think I got this job by seniority?"

heh.... Yes, there were several tasty lines. None of which I can remember, but which I should like to use in conversation.
I liked when he thought that her dogs had died... "Yes, of course you have to go. Good luck with the . .. .. dog. ... .. tragedy."

Dawn's home room teacher seemed kind of cute, in a Mr. Walsh/90210 way.
"What, you think I got this job by seniority?"
Hopefully he didn't get it by being the mayor's lacky.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I'm still getting over the fact that the principal was apparently named after a Tarot deck.
I can talk in here without spoiling anyone! I love Atlantic Canadians!!!
Wasn't it AWESOME when Adam was talking, and you realized the next one had to be the Mayor? That was probably the yummiest part of the whole ep for me.
Also enjoyed the newbie vamp in the beginning. "Gee thanks for helping me out. t dark Unfortunately, it'll be the last thing you ever --"

I'll have to watch again, but was he using his William accent instead of his Spike accent?
A lot of what he said was definitely garbled memories of his human life. "I dropped my board in the water and the chalk all ran" etc.

That was funny. I could have done without the Buffy/Dawn "how to kill a vampire" tutorial though. It just raises the specter of the coming possible spinoff.
Anyone know where I can find a picture of SMG's back tattoo?

Or it could be a sneaky way of exposing Dawn to more vamps, thereby assuring her death! (Um, in such a way that Buffy won't be sent into another season of depression. Hey, I can hope.)

Thanks for all the fish.
Wasn't the principal's name 'Mr. Wood'? Or 'Woodbine'? Or was that the actor's name?
There was a magazine cover, 'In Style'?, that showed her back.
Jessica, it was very cool to see the Mayor. And the best part is, when they were cutting the ribbon to open the High School, I said that I missed the Mayor!!
What did Xander say? Considering that the last two principals got eaten, I'm surprised that anyone applies for the job.??
Okay, aside from Megan and me, anyone else getting relationship vibes between Buffy and the principal?

That's a much better way of thinking about it!
